All ways to connect JVM to JVM

Question

I need a list of all the ways in which two JVMs can interact. JVMs can be local or remote.

Obvious are

• Socket communication
• Rmi
• Shared memory (file / database)

Note. I am not interested in comparing them, since the method we choose depends on the need. I am curious to know what actually exists.

Answer 1

See interaction between processes .
