# Clustering
|
|
|
|
Nomad models infrastructure into regions and datacenters. Servers reside at the
|
|
regional layer and manage all state and scheduling decisions for that region.
|
|
Regions contain multiple datacenters, and clients are registered to a single
|
|
datacenter (and thus a region that contains that datacenter). For more details on
|
|
the architecture of Nomad and how it models infrastructure see the [architecture
|
|
page](/docs/internals/architecture).
|
|
|
|
There are multiple strategies available for creating a multi-node Nomad cluster:
|
|
|
|
1. [Manual Clustering](/guides/operations/cluster/manual)
|
|
1. [Automatic Clustering with Consul](/guides/operations/cluster/automatic)
|
|
1. [Cloud Auto-join](/guides/operations/cluster/cloud_auto_join)
|
|
|
|
Please refer to the specific documentation links above or in the sidebar for
|
|
more detailed information about each strategy.
