# cluster, clusterAllReplicas {#cluster-clusterallreplicas}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Allows to access all shards in an existing cluster which configured in `remote_servers` section without creating a [Distributed](../../engines/table-engines/special/distributed.md) table. One replica of each shard is queried.
|
|||
|
|
`clusterAllReplicas` - same as `cluster` but all replicas are queried. Each replica in a cluster is used as separate shard/connection.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
!!! note "Note"
|
|||
|
|
All available clusters are listed in the `system.clusters` table.

``` sql
|

|
|
cluster('cluster_name', db.table)
|
|||
|
|
cluster('cluster_name', db, table)
|
|||
|
|
clusterAllReplicas('cluster_name', db.table)
|
|||
|

clusterAllReplicas('cluster_name', db, table)

```

`cluster_name` – Name of a cluster that is used to build a set of addresses and connection parameters to remote and local servers.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Using the `cluster` and `clusterAllReplicas` table functions are less efficient than creating a `Distributed` table because in this case, the server connection is re-established for every request. When processing a large number of queries, please always create the `Distributed` table ahead of time, and don’t use the `cluster` and `clusterAllReplicas` table functions.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The `cluster` and `clusterAllReplicas` table functions can be useful in the following cases:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Accessing a specific cluster for data comparison, debugging, and testing.
|
|||
|
|
- Queries to various ClickHouse clusters and replicas for research purposes.
|
|||
|
|
- Infrequent distributed requests that are made manually.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Connection settings like `host`, `port`, `user`, `password`, `compression`, `secure` are taken from `<remote_servers>` config section. See details in [Distributed engine](../../engines/table-engines/special/distributed.md).
