title: ZeroMQ (via pyzmq) vs. Python Standard Library: Why one over the other?
body: <p>Soon I'm going to be writing some Python code to make two services (A and B) talk to each other.  They might be on the same machine, or they might not (but I will know in advance of deployment).  I have two options; either <a href="https://docs.python.org/3/library/ipc.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">the standard library</a>, or <a href="http://zeromq.org" rel="nofollow noreferrer">ØMQ</a> (via <a href="https://pyzmq.readthedocs.io" rel="nofollow noreferrer">pyzmq</a>).  <strong>Why would I use one over the other?</strong></p>
