4 Uses of HTTP Its primary function is to establish a connection with the server and send HTML pages back to the user's browser. It is also used to download files from the server either to the browser or to any other requesting application that uses HTTP.

5 ADVANTAGES Ease of Programming HTTP is coded in plain text and therefore is easier to follow and process than protocols that require lookups. Data is formatted in lines of text. Search Capabilities Although HTTP is a simple messaging protocol, it includes the ability to search a database with a single request.

6 FTP Stands for File Transfer Protocol Is a standard Internet protocol for transmitting files between computers on the Internet Is an application protocol that uses the Internet's TCP/IP protocols.

7 Uses The most common use of FTP is to download files. It can be used to browse through a collection of downloadable files on a public software archive. To transfer files among users, especially if the files are too large to attach to an email.

8 Advantages FTP gives you control over transfer. That is, you can choose the mode in which the data is transferred over the network. The data can be transferred either in the ASCII mode (for text files) or in the Binary mode (for executables or compressed files). FTP is the fast and efficient way of transferring bulks of data across the internet. It is efficient because you don't need to complete many operations to get the entire file or files transferred
