Load balancing monitors node performance and is responsible for shifting activity across nodes when the system is out of balance.

The Clustrix database automatically splits and distributes data evenly across nodes with each slice having copies on other nodes.

It was designed for concurrency, and can run a program spread across multiple nodes at once.

These systems provide a sharding middleware layer to automatically split databases across multiple nodes.

Nor do they require similar interests across nodes in a network, on the contrary weak links occur due to different interests but are created through often minimal factors.

It is a RAID replacement technology based on erasure coding that spreads data and parity out across multiple nodes in the storage grid.

The RTR routing capability is that it allows to partition data across multiple servers and nodes for increased performance.

A distributed file system is a file system where data is distributed across multiple nodes.

Caching platform should work in a clustered environment spanning to multiple nodes thereby keeping the cached data coherent across nodes.

It's also possible to distribute transactions across multiple nodes (i.e. separate servers).
