Supercomputers are large processing clusters, dedicated to solving various problems through constant computation; Supercomputers are essentially a single application that does complex equations over large datasets.
Servers are much cheaper and much more adaptable than supercomputers. They can run a variety of operating systems and software at competitive mainstream prices. Servers can used redundantly, with servers supporting each other should one fail. Hardware can also be bought in the mainstream market, allowing easier upgrades and migrations.
