A shared-nothing io_uring runtime for .NET.
One ring per reactor thread - run one per core. Each reactor owns its ring, its SO_REUSEPORT listener, its connections and its clients outright: nothing is shared, so nothing is locked. HTTP, Postgres, Redis and file I/O all submit on the owning ring and resume inline on the same thread. No thread pool on the hot path. No native dependencies - raw syscalls, nothing else.

Documentation - architecture, guides, the full picture
First-class async/await
Shared-nothing runtimes usually ask you to give up the platform's async model. ioxide keeps it:
handlers are ordinary async Task code, and await works everywhere.
- Ring completions resume their continuations inline on the reactor thread - an awaited recv, query or file read picks up exactly where it left off, with no thread pool hop.
- A per-reactor
SynchronizationContextcatches everything that would otherwise escape: timers,HttpClient,Task.Runresults - their continuations post back to the owning reactor. - Ring operations await through reusable, allocation-free awaitables.
You always wake up on your reactor. That is what makes shared-nothing practical in .NET: connection, pool and handler state stays single-threaded without a lock in sight.
Packages
| Package | What it does |
|---|---|
ioxide |
The runtime: reactors, TCP/UDP transports, connections, the ring-native client seam. |
ioxide.pg |
Postgres driver. A pool per reactor; connect, query and stream rows on the owning ring. |
ioxide.redis |
Redis client. RESP2, pipelining, pub/sub - pooled per reactor. |
ioxide.file |
Static assets. Immutable snapshots, baked responses, positional ring reads. |
ioxide.tls |
TLS. OpenSSL handshake over the ring, then kTLS - handlers keep writing plaintext. |
ioxide.Kestrel |
ASP.NET Core transport: UseIoxide() and Kestrel runs one ring per core. |
Scope
ioxide hands you raw bytes and stays out of HTTP. Request parsing and response bytes are your
code; the runtime owns the ring, the connections and the clients. When you want a framework
on top, ioxide.Kestrel plugs the same engine under ASP.NET Core.

| Package | Downloads |
|---|---|
|
ioxide.tls
TLS for the ioxide io_uring runtime: OpenSSL handshake driven over the ring, then kernel TLS (kTLS) transmit offload - handlers keep writing plaintext through the same connection API. Requires Linux kTLS (tls module) and OpenSSL 3. |
|
|
ioxide.file
File serving for the ioxide io_uring runtime: immutable asset snapshots with baked responses, pooled positional ring reads, atomic reloads. |
|
|
ioxide.pg
Postgres driver for the ioxide io_uring runtime: pooled ring-native connections per reactor, ring-native connect and handshake, inline completion resume. |
|
|
ioxide.redis
Redis client for the ioxide io_uring runtime: pooled ring-native connections per reactor, full RESP2 protocol, a generic command API plus typed helpers (strings, keys, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets, pub/sub, transactions, scripting), and pipelining. Inline completion resume. |
|
|
ioxide.Kestrel
ASP.NET Core Kestrel transport backed by the ioxide io_uring runtime: one reactor (ring) per core, SO_REUSEPORT load-balanced, with Kestrel's HTTP request loop pinned to the reactor thread. Drop-in via UseIoxide(). |
