Getting started with the Amazon DCV Extension SDK

The Amazon DCV Extension SDK uses Protocol Buffers (protobuf), an open-source data format designed to serialize structured data in a compact, binary form. By using Protocol Buffers, Amazon DCV components and extensions can communicate with one another in a way that is platform-independent and extensible, regardless of the selected programming language.

The definitions of the messages are contained in the file extensions.proto.
