  • RPC Protocol

    Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is a protocol that allows executing a procedure or function on a remote server, as if it were a local procedure. It abstracts the complexities of network communication, enabling developers to focus on functionality rather than the underlying transport mechanisms. RPC is widely used in distributed systems, microservices, and client-server architectures…

  • Distributed System Architecture

    Distributed system architecture refers to a computing model in which components of a system are spread across multiple machines, yet function as a cohesive unit. These systems are designed to achieve scalability, fault tolerance, and high availability by leveraging the capabilities of multiple nodes or servers. Distributed systems are foundational to cloud computing, large-scale web…

  • Inter-Process Communication in OS

    Inter-Process Communication (IPC) is a fundamental mechanism in operating systems (OS) that allows processes to exchange data and synchronize their activities. Processes in modern systems often need to work collaboratively, and IPC facilitates this by providing structured communication pathways. This article delves into the concept of IPC, its types, mechanisms, and practical applications, supported by…
