Shared Memory Transport
Endpoints in programs that run on the same host computer can communicate using a shared memory transport. Shared memory transports are peer-to-peer transports that communicate at high speeds and exhibit very low latency.
Shared memory transports are an excellent strategy for fast communication among processes on multi-core hardware.
Shared memory transport definitions are inherently unitary.
Topology
The natural topology of a shared memory bus is the mesh (complete graph) of all its runtime transports. All runtime transports can use the bus for both sending and receiving operations. When appropriate, you can configure connectors to artificially limit the abilities that an endpoint may use.
- Configuring a Shared Memory Transport for Access by Different Users: UNIX
On UNIX platforms, the shared memory segment underlying a shared memory transport belongs to a specific user. Nonetheless, you can configure the UNIX environment so that different users can access it. - Configuring a Shared Memory Transport for Access by Different Users: Windows
On Windows platforms, the shared memory segment underlying a shared memory transport can either be a global segment, or belong to a specific user. A parameter of the transport definition configures this distinction. - Shared Memory Transport: Parameters Reference
These parameters are specific to shared memory transports in the configuration interface.
