It’s unclear what’s new compared to previous Cluster HAT models such as the v2.0. The HAT is designed for “teaching, testing or simulating small scale clusters.”Ĭluster HAT v2.3 with (left) and without Raspberry Pi 3 SBC HAT-masters Pimoroni, which recently brought us the Enviro+ pHAT air quality detector, have released a new v2.3 version of Chris Burton’s Raspberry Pi Cluster HAT selling for $49. The product also supports machine learning platforms like TensorFlow and Caffe, and there’s support for Mxnet, the OPENFAAS serverless stack, and Jupyter Notebook. The Turing Pi Cluster is designed for private cloud applications that run container software like Kubernetes and Docker. There appears to be an option to replace these with eMMC storage. Each of the seven cluster slots has its own 40-pin GPIO and its own microSD slot. There’s also an audio jack, dual MIPI-CSI connectors and a MIPI-DSI interface. On the coastline you’ll find a GbE port, an HDMI port, and 8x USB ports.

The Mini-ITX board has a Gigabit Ethernet switch to cluster the CM3 boards. As reported on Technabob, if you loaded the Turing Pi Clusterboard up with seven $28 Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3 modules, the total price would come to about $325.
Turing Pi’s new cluster platform is available for pre-order for $128 with shipments due sometime in the fall. Mythic Beasts’s preliminary, 18x Raspberry Pi 4 equipped rig is running the RPi 4 launch page, and PicoCluster promises an RPi 4-based cluster kit by August (see farther below). Meanwhile, the latest v2.3 version of the Raspberry Pi Cluster HAT connects 4x Raspberry Pi Zero boards mounted to a standard Raspberry Pi via USB Gadget mode.Ĭluster users and vendors are hotly anticipating the cluster power of the new quad Cortex-A72 based Raspberry Pi 4. Like many cluster products, including MiniNodes’ 5 Node Raspberry Pi 3 CoM Carrier Board, the new Turing Pi Clusterboard connects Raspberry Pi Compute Modules - seven of them compared to five on the MiniNodes board - via Ethernet. Meanwhile, Pimoroni has launched a $49 RPi Cluster HAT v2.3 that supports 4x RPi Zeros.Ĭluster products that combine the computing power of multiple Raspberry Pi boards have long been popular for running a wide variety of private server applications, and more recently there’s been a growing emphasis on edge AI.
