I understood it as "run a this command in an implementation that is parallelized and runs in 1000's of machines but has the same interface.

     parallel --onall my-command
Done! (Assuming you've added the SSH logins to ~/.parallel/sshloginfile)

For example, to use them to convert a bunch of images from PNG to JPG:

    find . --name '*.png' | parallel --onall --trc {.}.jpg "convert {} {.}.jpg"
This takes care of sending the PNGs and retrieving the JPGs. Now you just need a few aliases to hide the parallel.
