During W2K launch Bill Gates said they are using a "shared nothing" approach. They are not even sharing the database, as far as I can tell. In other words each machine in the cluster is running its own copy of SQLServer and using a completely independent database. In other words each machines in the cluster is querying and updating a completely independent database.

Can anyone confirm this is the case? And if true, does this have any significance in real life?
