Abstract
A cluster manager manages a cluster of computers. To be more specific, it manages resources such as CPU, memory, storage, ports, and other resources available on a cluster of nodes. It pools together the resources available on each cluster node and enables different applications to share these resources. Thus, it turns a cluster of commodity computers into a virtual super-computer that can be shared by multiple applications.
