IS HTTP is state Less server or not?

HTTP is a protocol (the letters stand for "Hypertext Transfer Protocol"). It does not represent a server or any other physical entity. It is something like a statement of the 'language' to be used in the communication with the server specified by the URL or, more correctly, the way in which the communication is to be carried out. Other common protocols are HTTPS ("HTTP Secure") and FTP ("File Transfer Protocol"). HTTP is called a "stateless" protocol because it doesn't require the server to retain information or status about each user during multiple requests. Many web applications, however, implement states or server side sessions using cookies, query string parameters or hidden variables in web forms.

Hi Pavan, HTTP is state less protocol because it treats each request as an independent transaction and it does not require the server to retain session information or status about each communications partner for the duration of multiple requests. If you send a request to a stateless server, it does not create any objects to track this request.
