Summary: Good Concept and Explaination
Comment: Explain different model of clusters and designs. Good visual diagrams to show different type of clusterings and technologies involved, plus follow-up details on their pros & cons. Excellent topic on SCSI devices. Overall, the book layout the concept of clustering quite nicely; however, you will still need those Microsoft's online documentation on NT clustering to set up your cluster. Since there not too many books out there on NT clustering, I have to give this book 4 stars. Cheer.

Summary: Solid factual and good textbook material
Comment: Excellent work. I have read the much praised book of G.Pfeister (In search of clusters) and find this a nice and much needed contrast.Insted of just theory it actually gives you tangble information on how eg.failover,message passing..etc works. In other words the examples actually refer to existing software and hardware..Pfeister would just say "the message passing software..." while this book would actually refer to the component of MSCS. If you are serious about clustering under NT then go get this.

Summary: Great overview of clustering
Comment: The book provides a wonderful introductory overview of clustering architectures. It does, however, provide a detailed look at NT specific clusters. Even the sections of the book that are "NT specific" talk mostely about clusters in general. I gave the book 4 stars because it gives a wonderful overview of clustering technology and does give you a good sence of where NT fits in. But, it really needs to have some discussion that is more specific to NT's implementation.
