I think it’s quite different.  Cluster nodes usually run a
vendor-provided GNU/Linux distro (often the ancient RPM-based ones) on
top of which admins add their own thing, which could be Guix.

Of course in an ideal world people would run GuixSD on all the cluster
nodes and use “guix deploy” to that end, but that’s not what I had in
mind here.  :-)
