connection-oriented:-
connection-oriented describes a means of transmitting data in which the devices at the end points use a preliminary protocol to establish an end-to-end connection before any data is sent. Connection-oriented protocol service is sometimes called a "reliable" network service, because it guarantees that data will arrive in the proper sequence. Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a connection-oriented protocol.
For connection-oriented communications, each end point must be able to transmit so that it can communicate. The alternative to connection-oriented transmission is the connection-less approach, in which data is sent from one end point to another without prior arrangement. Connection-less protocols are usually described as stateless because the end points have no protocol-defined way to remember where they are in a "conversation" of message exchanges. Because they can keep track of a conversation, connection-oriented protocols are sometimes described as statefulI.
