What is

HTTP is an access protocol for web pages over the Internet. HTTP is the acronym for Hypertext Transfer Protocol which translates into Spanish as the " hypertext transfer protocol ".

HTTP is one of the 3 basic technologies developed for the creation of the web in 1990 by Tim Berners Lee. The web as an information management system for data transmission over the Internet requires 3 basic elements for its operation: HTTP, URL and HTML.

The HTTP is the protocol used to communicate with the web server in order to access a web page or web browser.

The URL is the specific address for the location of the resources (web pages, web browsers) available on the network or the web.

The HTML is the language used to encode information in web resources.

In this sense, the HTML language is used to create any resource on the Internet. To access it, the HTTP protocol is used, which is the most used to access pages through the Internet, along with a URL that will determine the exact address to find the resource.
