Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)

Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is a communications protocol used to transfer data between web clients and web servers. It is the foundation of data communication for the World Wide Web. HTTP sends requests from a web client (such as a browser) to a web server and transmits responses back to the client. It relies on rules governing how data is structured and exchanged between the client and server. HTTP is a stateless protocol, meaning each request is independently processed and doesn't rely on information from a previous request. HTTP is used to access and transfer hypertext documents, such as HTML and XML files, and other media types, including images, audio, and video. It is also used to submit data from web forms for processing by the server. HTTP is an application layer protocol that operates over the Internet's Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).
