Shared memory
In some cases, the shared memory protocol can be the fastest way two processes can exchange information. The shared memory protocol can be used only when solidDB® and application processes are both running in the same computer. The shared memory protocol uses a shared memory location for moving data from one process to another.
To use the shared memory protocol in solidDB®, select shmem as the protocol and enter the server name.
Where
Syntax example
Server
Listen = shmem server name
Client
Connect = shmem server name
server_name must be a character string less than 128 characters long. server_name has to be unique only in this computer.
