execnet provides carefully tested means to ad-hoc interact with Python interpreters across version, platform and network barriers. It provides a minimal and fast API targeting the following uses:

distribute tasks to local or remote processes
write and deploy hybrid multi-process applications
write scripts to administer multiple hosts

Features

zero-install bootstrapping: no remote installation required!
flexible communication: send/receive as well as callback/queue mechanisms supported
simple serialization of python builtin types (no pickling)
grouped creation and robust termination of processes
interoperable between Windows and Unix-ish systems.
integrates with different threading models, including standard os threads, eventlet and gevent based systems.
