Linking the boards to make a server?

These boards can do pretty well anything that is compiled for ARM or is in the ARM build of the OS. For myself I'm using Docker Swarm to use multiple Raspberry Pis together as a single bigger server (10 RPi 2s total). So while that doesn't answer your question 100%, I'd recommend looking at the OS you are planning to run and see if it has an ARM build and what features are supported in that build.
