Anita Menon answered
  • The process of transferring files from a computer on the Internet to your computer is called Downloading.
  • Downloading generally transfers entire files for local storage and later use, as contrasted with streaming, where the data is used nearly immediately, while the transmission is still in progress, and which may not be stored long-term. Websites that offer streaming media or media displayed in-browser, such as YouTube, increasingly place restrictions on the ability of users to save these materials to their computers after they have been received.
  • Downloading is not the same as data transfer; moving or copying data between two storage devices would be data transfer, but receiving data from the Internet is downloading.
  • In computer networks, to download (abbreviation DL) is to receive data from a remote system, typically a server such as a web server, an FTP server, an email server, or other similar systems. This contrasts with uploading, where data is sent to a remote server. A download is a file offered for downloading or that has been downloaded, or the process of receiving such a file.

  • Sending a local file or data to a remote site is called Uploading. Uploading is the transmission of a file from one computer system to another, usually larger computer system.
  • From an Internet user's point-of-view, downloading is receiving a file from another computer. The File Transfer Protocol ( FTP ) is the Internet facility for downloading and uploading files. What is the difference between uploading and downloading? Uploading is the process of putting web pages, images and files onto a web server.
  • Downloading is the process of getting web pages, images and files from a web server. To make a file visible to everyone on the internet, you will need to upload it. File Transfer Protocol, is an Internet utility software used to upload and download files.
  • It gives access to directories or folders on remote computers and allows software, data and text files to be transferred between different kinds of computers. Most connections are designed to download much faster than they upload, since the majority of online activity, like loading web pages or streaming videos, consists of downloads. Download speed is measured in megabits per second (Mbps). The upload speed is how fast you send data from you to others.

Protocol used to download a file: FTP (File Transfer Protocol)

FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, is a standard network protocol used for transferring files from one host to another over a TCP-based network, such as the internet. It is specifically designed to facilitate the transfer of files between a client and a server.

How FTP works:

FTP follows a client-server architecture, where the client initiates a connection to the server to transfer files. Let's understand the process in detail:

1. Establishing a connection:
- The client initiates a connection to the FTP server using the server's IP address or domain name.
- The client and server exchange control information, including authentication credentials, to establish a secure connection.

2. Authentication:
- Once the connection is established, the client provides a username and password to authenticate itself with the server.
- If the credentials are valid, the server grants access to the client.

3. Navigating the file system:
- After successful authentication, the client can navigate the file system of the server.
- The client can change directories, list files and directories, and perform other file management operations.

4. Transferring files:
- Once the client has located the file to download, it sends a request to the server to transfer the file.
- The server responds by initiating the data transfer process.
- The file is divided into smaller packets, which are then sent over the network using TCP/IP.

5. Confirmation and completion:
- As the data packets are received by the client, they are reassembled into the original file.
- Once the file transfer is complete, the server sends a confirmation to the client.
- The client can then close the connection with the server.

Advantages of using FTP:
- FTP supports the transfer of large files efficiently.
- It provides flexibility in terms of accessing and managing files on remote servers.
- FTP allows for secure and encrypted file transfers.
- It supports resume functionality, allowing interrupted transfers to be resumed from where they left off.
- FTP has widespread support and is compatible with various operating systems and platforms.

In conclusion, FTP is the protocol specifically designed for downloading files over a network. It provides a reliable and secure method for transferring files between a client and a server.

A web search engine is a software system that is designed to search for information on the World Wide Web. The search results are generally presented in a line of results often referred to as search engine results pages (SERPs). The information may be a mix of web pages, images, and other types of files.
