HTTP
Also known as: Hypertext Transfer Protocol
Following adds this technology to your private workspace so related learning is easier to organise and revisit.
What is HTTP?
Hypertext Transfer Protocol is the application protocol used to exchange requests and responses across the web and many APIs. This profile connects the concept to KBY's practical engineering guidance.
HTTP defines methods, status codes, headers, caching and message semantics independently of the representation being transferred. Connections may use different underlying versions, but safe operation still depends on correct idempotency, validation, timeouts and intermediary behaviour.
Provide a standard request-response contract for web resources and services.
- Web browsing
- RESTful APIs
- Client-server communication
