Client server application for server farm performance monitoring

Workstation/PC server farms have become a cost-effective solution for high performance computing. Server farm or server cluster is a collection of computer servers usually maintained by an enterprise to accomplish server needs far beyond the capability of one machine. Server farms often have backup...
