Abstract

A method for sharing data includes creating a socket serviced by a server application executing within a central operating system environment and creating another socket serviced by a client application executing within a virtualized operating system environment. The central operating system environment and virtualized operating system environment run on a single computer and are separated by a secure boundary. The central operating system environment has administrative control over the virtualized operating system environment. The method also includes establishing a communication link across the secure boundary and between the sockets, requesting at least one element of a server array existing in a memory space of the server application and passing the at least one element to the client application via the communication link to mirror the server array into a memory space of the client application.
