You really need an enormous amount of data (or data processing) to justify a clustered setup. Single machines can scale up rather quite a lot.
It'll cost money, but you can order a 24x128GB ram, 24x30TB ssd system which will arrive in a few days and give you 3 TB ram, 720 TB (fast) disk. You can go bigger, but it'll be a little exotic and the ordering process might take longer.
If you need more storage/ram than around that, you need clustering. Or if the processing power you get in your single system storage isn't enough, you would need to cluster, but ~ 256 cores of cpu is enough for a lot of things.
- greazy 10mo agoWhat motherboard supports this much ram?
