Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) are two fundamental protocols used in the Internet protocol suite for the transmission of data between devices over a network. They are responsible for ensuring reliable and efficient data transfer and are the backbone of countless online activities and applications.
TCP: A Reliable and Ordered Delivery Protocol
TCP, also known as Transmission Control Protocol, is a connection-oriented protocol that establishes a virtual connection between the sender and receiver before transmitting data. It guarantees reliable and in-order delivery of data, making it suitable for applications that require high reliability and data integrity, such as web browsing, file transfers, and email.
Key features of TCP include:
