Abstract

Communication between software components in different virtual machines may be made through a hypervisor between pseudo-devices that have no corresponding physical device. A software component in a virtual machine transfers data to a pseudo-device in the virtual machine. The pseudo-device is connected to another pseudo-device in another virtual machine, and the connection is through the hypervisor. The data from the software component is transferred from the pseudo-device to the other pseudo-device over the connection through the hypervisor. The other pseudo-device in the other virtual machine receives the data and provides the data to another software component in the other virtual machine.
