Explain the term serialization?

Answer Posted / baskar

Introduction
Serialization is the process of saving an object in a
storage medium (such as a file, or a memory buffer) or to
transmit it over a network connection in binary form. The
serialized objects are JVM independent and can be
re-serialized by any JVM. In this case the "in memory" java
objects state are converted into a byte stream. This type of
the file can not be understood by the user. It is a special
types of object i.e. reused by the JVM (Java Virtual
Machine). This process of serializing an object is also
called deflating or marshalling an object.
