The *Micro XRCE-DDS Clients* are lightweight entities meant to be compiled on e**X**tremely **R**esource **C**onstrained **E**nvironments, while the *Micro XRCE-DDS Agent* is a broker which bridges the *Clients* with the DDS world.\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https://github.com/eProsima/Micro-XRCE-DDS-Agent/blob/master/docs/General.png?raw=true\" alt=\"General architecture\" width=\"70%\"/\u003e \u003c/p\u003e\n\nThe *Micro XRCE-DDS Agent* receives messages containing request operations from the *Clients* to publish and subscribe to topics in the DDS global dataspace. Remote procedure calls, as defined by the [DDS-RPC standard](https://www.omg.org/spec/DDS-RPC/About-DDS-RPC/), are also supported, allowing to communicate according to a request/reply paradigm.\nThe *Agent* then processes these requests and sends back a response with the operation status result and with the requested data, in the case of subscribe/reply operations.\n\n*Agents* keep track of the *Clients* by means of a dedicated `ProxyClient` entity that acts on behalf of the latter.\nThis is made possible by the creation of *DDS Entities* on the *Agent* as a result of *Clients*' operations, such as *Participants*, *Topics*, *Publishers*, and *Subscribers*, which can interact with the DDS global dataspace.\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https://github.com/eProsima/Micro-XRCE-DDS-Agent/blob/master/docs/Agent.png?raw=true\" alt=\"Agent architecture\" width=\"80%\"/\u003e \u003c/p\u003e\n\nThe communication between a *Micro XRCE-DDS Client* and a *Micro XRCE-DDS Agent* is achieved by means of several kinds of built-in transports: **UDPv4**, **UDPv6**, **TCPv4**, **TCPv6** and **Serial** communication. In addition, there is the possibility for the user to generate its own **Custom** transport.\nAn *Agent* using any of these built-in transports can be launched by means of the standalone executable generated when building the project, which comes with a built-in CLI tool to select among the transports listed above.\n\nThis built-in *Agent* can also be installed and launched using the provided [Snap package](https://snapcraft.io/micro-xrce-dds-agent) or the provided [Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/eprosima/micro-xrce-dds-agent/).\n\n## Commercial support\n\nLooking for commercial support?
