| Uses ZMQ for coordination and RDMA (via NIXL) for bulk data transfer. | ||
| All transfers are **host-to-host** — no accelerator memory involved on either side. | ||
|
|
||
| P2P transfers are triggered via `kv_transfer_params` request headers, typically managed by an external orchestrator such as [llm-d](https://github.com/llm-d/llm-d). |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
