Hello all, I have the opportunity to "purchase" some Pi 5s and Pi Zero 2s for free (so costs aren't an issue!). I can either get two of both or one pi 5 and five pi zero 2s. I'm interested in trying to combine them by making a cluster. Aside from that some various other projects, but I'm mainly seeking advice for clustering. I would like to know which option is better in terms of efficiency, computing power and ease of use/setup.
Additionally, what would I need for clustering? I've seen some people online use an PoE switch but I'm not sure if it's required, and how would I set up clustering for the Zeros since they don't directly have a PoE port? I'm a beginner with Raspberry Pi in particular but have worked with other singe board computers.
For additional reference, with a cluster I have something like this in mind: https://www.raspberrypi.com/tutorials/c ... -tutorial/ but on a smaller scale![;)]( "Wink")
