Stateless Protocol

About

A stateless protocol is a communication protocol in which the receiver must not retain session state from previous requests1. The server does not keep any session data between two requests , although the later addition of cookies adds state to some client -server interactions 2.

Example

HTTP is an example of a stateless protocol.
