I built a cluster of 5 RPi 3's. They each have wifi and 16gb SD cards.

I'm not sure what to do with it. Anyone know some cool things to do with a RPI cluster? I have hadoop installed as well.

Can you post more shots of how you power them? Looks neat.

Why did you build it
>>
>>62420732
So it's not yours in the pic? Because those have Ethernet connections, not wifi.
By the way you buy hardware for software not the other way around

I had one of those multiport chargers lying around, and everything's plugged into that at the bottom. I'm worried that it might get really hot so I stripped a USB cable and plugged it into the two pins in a 140mm fan. The fan needs some help starting up but it seems to be working.

>>62420781
The Pi3 B's have wifi, which is nice since it frees up the ethernet port and makes the entirely assembly pretty portable.

I made it as a test platform for some distributed computing stuff but I'm wondering if there's other fun stuff you can do with one of these.

>>62420732
You can't do anything actually useful with it because its under powered.

However, you can use it to learn about distributed systems and high performance computing.

Some ideas:
1)Install slurm to setup a basic high performance computing cluster.
2)Install nginx, haproxy and keepalived to setup a basic high availability web cluster

If you get the high availability web cluster setup you might be able to run a small website on it

Take one and install pihole on it. Thank me later

>>62420834
Thx for the pics.

>usage ideas
-pack a 500gb drive onto it and run a full bitcoin node. Not for mining, but just for strengthening the network.

-run a TOR proxy or even an exit node.

-load the boards with different distoros link them up and use em as pen-test environment

-setup a grid and play around with some grid computing concepts

Yea, planning to experiment with some distributed computing stuff.

>>62420925
Thanks, haven't heard of this before. Looks pretty useful.

>>62420936
The wifi in these aren't the best, so I'm not sure about the nodes. I might use them to play around with different distros though, thanks for the ideas.

May I ask why did you decide with spending money on a cluster of RPi 3's knowing that you don't know what to do with them?

i bet over 50% of the raspberry pi's sold dont even get used because of dumbasses like you

Can docker share resources or does it just send processes to different nodes?

it doesn't quite work at the process level but at the container level (a bit like VMs, but not really) and yeah containers can share resources
