For better URLs, the content folder has been renamed 'docs' and all other files have been moved up a level. Also, non-docs images have been moved to the static folder at the top level where they belong. Many relative paths had to be fixed to make this work.

# Clustering
|
|
|
|
If you are running multiple `rippled` servers in a single datacenter, you can configure those servers into a cluster to maximize efficiency. Running your `rippled` servers in a cluster provides the following benefits:
|
|
|
|
- Clustered `rippled` servers share the work of cryptography. If one server has verified the authenticity of a message, the other servers in the cluster trust it and do not re-verify.
|
|
- Clustered servers share information about peers and API clients that are misbehaving or abusing the network. This makes it harder to attack all servers of the cluster at once.
|
|
- Clustered servers always propagate transactions throughout the cluster, even if the transaction does not meet the current load-based transaction fee on some of them.
|
|
|
|
If you are running a validator as a [private peer](peer-protocol.md#private-peers), Ripple recommends using a cluster of `rippled` servers as proxy servers.
