hi Junguk,

Welcome to the community!

Yes, Storm Worker processes use Netty for inter-process communication,
whether they are on the same node or on different nodes.  The LMAX
Disruptor is only used for intra-process communication.

Just FYI, it didn't always used to be this way, Storm previously used
ZeroMQ [1] for communicating between workers, but the system was switched
to Netty as part of the Storm project graduating from "incubation" [2].
