To make it work there's tools that multiply a command across many nodes.
Nodes are often pxe boit from a common point then get ip and name assigned.
Depending on maker and tools the systems are usually batch processors with
a manager like slurm (or pbs if life hands out lemons 😞).

Monitoring tools are numerous. Some old one still work. Some new have
problems scaling.

The hard part is figuring out performance tuning and scaling data
collection to not overrun system usage.
