I'm not sure what you mean by "cluster", but if you mean automatica
failover from one database server to another while hot, the answer
is, "No." You can replicate from one to another, but there is no hot
failover right now.

Live connections, or through a pool? I think the latter would be
preferable, although you could do the former, I suppose.

Depends on what experience you already have. We use Sun boxes and
Intel with Linux. If I have my preference, I use Intel and BSD.
