| Summary: | Aspects of the subject technology relate to methods for inter-container communication in a virtual network environment. Steps for implementing an inter-container communication method can include: creating, using a container management system, a file-structure in a shared memory, generating, by the container management system, a first memory-mapping between the file-structure and a first network container, and generating, by the container management system, a second memory-mapping between the file-structure and a second network container. In some aspects, the method can further include steps for transferring at least one data packet from the first network container to the second network container via the file-structure in the shared memory. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided. |
