What is the difference between TCP and UDP ?
Answer Posted / a.v.sudheer
TCP is a Transmission Control Protocol.
UDP is a User Datagram Protocol.
There are four major differences between UDP and TCP:
1. TCP can establishes a Connection and UDP cannot.
2. TCP provides a stream of unlimited length, UDP sends
small packets.
3.TCP gurantees that as long as you have a connection data
sent will arrive at the destination, UDP provides not
guarantee delivery.
4.UDP is faster for sending small amounts of data since no
connection setup is required, the data can be sent in less
time then it takes for TCP to establish a connection.
