        **What is Stream-Oriented communication?**

        Stream-oriented communication refers to the continuous flow of data between two endpoints, where data is delivered as a steady, ordered stream rather than discrete packets.

        **Why is Stream-Oriented communication useful?**

        It allows applications to transmit large amounts of data seamlessly and ensures that data arrives in the correct order, which is essential for real-time and interactive applications.

        **How does Stream-Oriented communication work?**

        Protocols like TCP establish a connection that provides a reliable byte stream between sender and receiver, handling segmentation and reassembly transparently to the application.

        **Where is Stream-Oriented communication used?**

        It is used in applications such as web browsing (HTTP), file transfers (FTP), and remote login (SSH), where reliable ordered data delivery is critical.

        **Which Transport Protocol uses Stream-Oriented communication?**

        The primary stream-oriented transport protocol is **TCP (Transmission Control Protocol)**.

        **Is Stream-Oriented communication using client-server model?**

        Yes, stream-oriented communication is widely used in client-server models where a continuous and reliable data exchange is necessary.
