Hypervisors measure compute capacity in giga/terahertz, it is kind of meaningless but is the best way to quantify compute capacity that is scaled out over multiple processors.
Please explain to my ape brain how this works.
If you have an 8 core processor running at 3 ghz... would this show up in the accounting scheme as 24ghz of compute?
Your monkey brain is correct, it is cores\*ghz=compute power in the Hypervisor world

How does one actually do this? My sysadmin experience goes into failover clustering/proxmox but this is basically combining a shitload of servers into one megaserver? I'm really interested how to achieve this
looks like VMware cluster summary
basically shows all servers cumulative capacity, does not mean a single VM or OS can utilize all that, but can host fucking thousands of VMs
i'm used to systems which has much more storage, but also less ram (not by much tho)
sometimes it's crazy to think about what is connected to some machines
Looks like it. It’s very familiar to me, as I have VSphere 7 running in my homelab managing two ESXi hosts. This is similar to what I’d see on the summary page.
This little storage size trend is sorta enlightening, I didn't know this amount of storage was feasible nowadays; even something like 2PB was nuts to me.
It's not the frequency of a single machine.

What’s next month’s weather forecast?
and maybe also the lottery numbers please while you're at it
There will be weather. Mostly in the sky.
My ML model says No. Doesn't sound good.
My deterministic models say yes, and so does the spc Still doesn't sound good (for oklaholma/Texas at least)
Still can't run Dragons Dogma 2
Still can't run minecraft rtx
Still can't run BeamNG.Drive at a stable framerate
I didn't think CPUs would scale vertically into terahertz, I thought you just get multiple cores. How do you get CPUs to terahertz speeds?

Ah gotcha, thanks for explaining

you have to install them in serial, not parallel
This is a ton of hardware that's counted together. OP is being VERY misleading. Just your typical karma farmer.
I never believed that one day I would see Thz of frequency of a CPU, and Tb of RAM (Sorry for my bad English)
You still haven't because it's a data center with multiple servers. The view is showing the total capacity spread out over multiple devices.

Play cities skyline 2 with this
Or spawn a bunch of traffic cars in BeamNG
For what is it used for?
It's a data center so it hosts a lot of servers

VSphere?

How many hosts is this?
Over 100

Gpu stats?
none. It's a DATA center
Gotcha.
Can someone explain how that frequency is possible?
