Redundant Array of Inexpensive Servers
text:
A Redundant Array of Inexpensive Servers (RAIS) or Redundant Array of Independent Nodes (RAIN) is the use of multiple servers to maintain service if one server fails. This is similar in concept to how RAID turns a cluster of ordinary disks into a single block device. RAIS was designed to provide the benefits of a symmetric multiprocessor system (SMP) at the entry cost of computer clusters. The term may imply some kind of load balancing between the servers.
