Abstract
Large message passing between containers in a virtualized computing system is described. A method of communication between microservices executing in containers, which execute in at least one virtual machines (VM) of a host having a hypervisor supporting the at least one VM, includes: sending, by each of a first microservice in a first container and a second microservice in a second container, a request to create a communication channel to a broker daemon executing in the hypervisor; receiving, at each of the first and second microservices, an identifier of a virtual disk attached to the at least one VM by the broker daemon; writing, by the first microservice, a message to the virtual disk; and reading, by the second microservice, the message from the virtual disk.
