Methods, systems, and media are disclosed for clustering. One embodiment includes receiving, by a configuration manager server, a request to create a dynamic cluster member for a dynamic cluster, wherein the request is for work load balancing and the dynamic cluster member is a process. Further, the embodiment includes parameterizing, by the configuration manager server, to create parameters for a dynamic cluster server template based on configuration files of nodes within a nodegroup. The configuration files and the dynamic cluster server template are stored in a central location associated with the configuration manager server. The embodiment also includes populating, by the configuration manager server, the parameters of the dynamic cluster server template with values associated with the nodes. Finally, the embodiment includes instantiating, by the configuration manager server, the process, associated with at least one of the nodes, from the dynamic cluster server template, thereby, creating the dynamic cluster member.
