Introduction

This document provides a comprehensive overview of the key networking APIs available.

We will cover topics like TCP, UDP, HTTP, HTTPS, and more.

TCP

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) provides reliable, ordered delivery of data. It's the foundation for many network applications.

• Key Features: Connection-oriented, error detection and correction, flow control.
• Use Cases: Web browsing, email, file transfer, remote access.

UDP

UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is connectionless and offers faster data transfer but doesn't guarantee delivery.

• Key Features: No error detection, faster speed.
• Use Cases: Video streaming, online games, DNS, VoIP.

HTTP

HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is the protocol for communication over the web.

It's the foundation of data transfer on the web.

• Key Features: Stateless, request-response, widely used.

HTTPS

HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is a secure version of HTTP, encrypting data in transit.

Essential for protecting sensitive data.
