The differences between the UDP and TCP/IP protocol can be listed as follows:
- UDP simply sends data, whether the data receiver is up and running or not. That's why UDP is better suited to sending data compared to many other clients using multicast distribution. TCP, on the other hand, requires establishing the connection between the client and the server first.
