TCP is a connection oriented protocol, which means that
everytime a packet is sent say from host A to B, we will get
an acknowledgement.
UDP on the other hand, is a connection less protocol.
TCP -> Say you have a file transfer and you need to ensure
that the file reaches intact, and time is not a factor, in
such a case we can use TCP.
UDP-> Media Streaming, question is say you are watching a
movie?would you prefer that your movie comes..perfectly?.but
u need to wait a long time before you see the next frame
?..or would you prefer the movie to keep streaming?Yes?The
second option is definely better?.This is when we need UDP
