The Dancing Cluster
summary
Discusses variability in expectations for well-behaved server clusters and the lack of a single best-practice stack. Reviews the problem of swapping cluster components and stacks in search of a silver-bullet configuration, and analyzes approaches to designing cluster behavior and failure responses rather than relying on a single fixed stack.
