Hello /g/
Do you know if it's possible to make a cluster of computer with few of them, all different, to get one more powerful ?
I know some software allow that, but I'm looking to this for a general use.
I though it could work as a multi-core logical/physical processor.
Even if it's on a virtualbox or so.
I ask because I want to do some movie work, but my computer isn't enough powerful, but I got few computer so...

I did some light IT work at a media distribution house before. You should just create a rack for rendering and a computer for editing. Queue jobs in the rack and render to some hard drive. That's how they did it on a shoestring.

That's called a beowulf cluster. It's usually done with identical systems but different ones can sometimes work fine. I'd not bother with less than ten, though. It's kind of a pain to set up.

With that can I go on Windows 10 / Linux with any software ? Or only very specific software will work with Beowulf Cluster ?
