Introduction

iceoryx2 is a shared-memory communication middleware that enables true zero-copy communication between applications on the same host.

By abstracting the complexity of shared memory behind simple APIs, it enables developers to focus on their domain-specific problems while seamlessly achieving low-latency, efficient communication.
