Summary :

An approach is proposed for constructing a dependable server cluster composed only of server nodes with all nodes running the same algorithm. The cluster propagates an IP multicast address as the server address, and clients multicast requests to the cluster. A local proxy running on each client machine enables conventional client software designed for unicasting to communicate with the cluster without having to be modified. Evaluation of a prototype system providing domain name service showed that a cluster using this technique has high dependability with acceptable performance degradation.
