HTTP
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is a request-response standard protocol between clients and servers.
Clients that make HTTP requests are called User Agents (UAs). Servers that respond to these requests for
resources, such as HTML pages, are called Origin Servers. There can be any number of intermediaries,
such as tunnels, proxies, or gateways between User Agents and Origin Servers.
