There's so many definitions of a cluster, what are you looking for specificly?

Typically, how I've done it in the past was either just run individual
servers off a common config/data store behind a load balancer so that we have
resiliency against failures, or during upgrades.

Another thing I've done is with CARP, and having a floating IP address between
two FreeBSD systems that mirror configurations. One could combine this with
corosync to maintain state between your app instances. 

There are various database products/options to make a database cluster for whatever
flavor of database you like to run.
