July 14, 2006 by. A cluster is a collection of commodity components to provide scalability and availability at a low cost. With this in mind, it is possible to create a database cluster for high-end enterprise applications by storing and processing information on commodity nodes. The architecture for a clustered database is distinguished by how data responsibilities are shared among compute nodes.
In most DBMSs, you can only have one clustered index per table, though there are systems that support multiple clusters (DB2 being an example). Like a regular index that is stored unsorted in a database table, a clustered index can be a composite index, such as a concatenation of first name and last name in a table of personal information.
