Maybe it's intresting, although I prefer to use red hat, suse or ubuntu in datacenter as Google. Slackware servers're not very poppular here

Gentoo makes the best server os because it's a cus= tom built os where the admin knows each and every aspect of the os. Security wise, there are no unwanted or unused stuff, so lesser bugs to deal with.

Clustering, well, you can do that using glusterfs
