Flashcards
WebSockets
WebSockets
A communication protocol that provides full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection, enabling real-time data transfer between server and clients.
Short Polling
Short Polling
A technique where the client repeatedly requests information from the server at regular intervals.
Long Polling
Long Polling
A technique where the server holds the client's request open until new data is available, then sends a complete response.
Study Notes
- Web sockets are ideal for applications needing real-time, bidirectional communication with multiple clients.
- Short polling, long polling, and web sockets are different methods for achieving real-time updates in web applications.
