When processes need to exchange data — whether on the same machine through shared memory or across a network via message passing — the choice of IPC library fundamentally shapes your system&rsquo;s latency, throughput, and operational complexity. The C++ ecosystem offers three distinct IPC paradigms: zero-copy shared memory (Eclipse Iceoryx), traditional shared memory primitives (Boost.Interprocess), and brokerless network messaging (nng).</p>
