A grid computing system that connects many personal computers over the Internet via inter-process network communication. In computer science, interprocess communication (IPC) is the sharing of data between running processes in a computer system.
The client would encrypt the ticket (password) with the public key and send the result back to the server, which would decrypt and verify the ticket. The current SPICE protocol also allows for use of the SASL authentication protocol, thus enabling support for a wide range of admin configurable authentication mechanisms, in particular Kerberos .
In client-server computing, a Unix domain socket is a Berkeley socket that allows data to be exchanged between two processes executing on the same Unix or Unix-like host computer. [1] This is similar to an Internet domain socket that allows data to be exchanged between two processes executing on different host computers.
Docker, a project automating the deployment of applications inside software containers; Apache Mesos, a large-scale cluster management platform based on container isolation; Operating system-level virtualization implementations; Proxmox Virtual Environment, an open-source server virtualization management platform supporting LXC containers and KVM
Programming a TCP client application involves the following steps: Creating a TCP socket. Connecting to the server ( connect() ), by passing a sockaddr_in structure with the sin_family set to AF_INET , sin_port set to the port the endpoint is listening (in network byte order), and sin_addr set to the IP address of the listening server (also in ...
Whereas the words server and client may refer either to a computer or to a computer program, server-host and client-host always refer to computers. The host is a versatile, multifunction computer; clients and servers are just programs that run on a host. In the client–server model, a server is more likely to be devoted to the task of serving.
This allows a machine using client software to access the Internet without having TCP/IP installed locally; the client software emulates a native TCP/IP stack and provides WinSock support for local applications (e.g. web browsers), but actually communicates with the firewall over IPX/SPX. In addition to simplifying migration for legacy IPX LANs ...
D-Bus (short for "Desktop Bus" [4]) is a message-oriented middleware mechanism that allows communication between multiple processes running concurrently on the same machine. [5] [6] D-Bus was developed as part of the freedesktop.org project, initiated by GNOME developer Havoc Pennington to standardize services provided by Linux desktop environments such as GNOME and KDE.
