US Patent 11030025 Managing inter-process communications in a containerized application environment

Described herein are systems, methods, and software to enhance the management of inter-process communications (IPCs) for containers according to an implementation. In one implementation, a container management service executing on a host with a plurality of containers may identify an IPC object generation with a first identifier from one of the containers. Responsive to the request, the service may translate the first identifier into a second identifier, and store the IPC object in a memory system using the second identifier. Once stored, requests may be made from applications in approved containers for the object using the first identifier, and the service may retrieve the IPC object using the second identifier.
