At first I thought this was a a way to run a Beowulf cluster... that brought back memories (is Beowulf still relevant in 2020?)

I forgot Devuan is the fork of Debian with Systemd stripped out.

Well, it is. Install and configure Open MPI or MPICH on multiple connected Devuan Beowulf systems and you have a Beowulf cluster. As a bonus, your new Beowulf cluster is systemd free.

Not really a bonus in my book, but I am sure it is for some folks.


You're not the only one who thought that :)
