No, there is no connection between these two concepts.
System services are created so they can be started and run unattended even after system restarts. A free-standing web server is a possible example here.
They way other components will communicate with such a service is a consequence of other design choices, like whether they are on the same machine or not. If they are on different machines, then shared memory is out of question (for nit-pickers: reflective memory does not count).
Again, web browsers communicating via TCP with a web server running as a system service is a prime example here.

Not at all. These concepts solve different problems and have no implication on each other.
