Is it possible to work on the same operating system using 2 computers at the same time?

Question

Data synchronization

Is it possible to work on the same operating system using 2 computers at the same time?

Example: I am running 2 computers at the same time with the same configuration. Running an application like Autocad or Photoshop and using the processing power of both machines at the same time?

If so, what materials would you recommend to study, and what software is required.

Answer 1

What you are describing is called a cluster.
But to work in a cluster, applications must be written in a special way, understanding that they will work on distributed systems. Specifically, AutoCAD and Photoshop will not be able to do this.

Answer 2

Is it possible to work on the same operating system using 2 computers at the same time?

Yes. I have a windows OS and hundreds of RDP and SSH connections - working on the same system, I often use more than a dozen computers at the same time.

I am running 2 computers at the same time with the same configuration. Running an application like Autocad or Photoshop and using the processing power of both machines at the same time?

Theoretically possible. In practice, for this you will need to write the operating system itself capable of spreading the load over several machines. Well, or use a ready-made one, there are such clustering systems, only you won’t run windows on them.
Is it just necessary? Just playing around is so expensive for games.
It will be impossible to work - such a bunch will work very slowly, hundreds of times slower than on one computer.

Answer 3

Well... theoretically yes. If you mean the parallelization of computing power, and not "one has a steep percentage, the second has even a vidyuha." But these must be specially written applications, the usual photo # op will not work like that. It's like with multi-threading and multi-core - if you have a 16-core processor in your computer, this does not mean at all that any application will work 16 times faster - some may work slower . Why? Because they know how to use only one core, and if it is worse than the previous one in terms of parameters - oops!
