Abstract
In an embodiment, a method is provided. In an embodiment, the method includes implementing a virtual remote direct memory access (RDMA) component in a virtualization layer on the computer system, the virtual RDMA component having an interface implementing RDMA semantics. An RDMA send request from a send queue associated with a first application running on the first VM is read using the virtual RDMA component, the RDMA send request referencing a send buffer in an application memory space for the first application. The virtual RDMA component then copies or transfers a message in the send buffer to a receive buffer in the second VM. A host computing system configured to implement the method and instructions configured to be executed on a host computing system is also provided.
