Application Layer

The Application Layer is the top layer of the Internet protocol suite and is responsible for enabling communication between software applications over a network. It provides the interface through which users interact with network services, such as web browsers, email clients, and file transfer programs. Essentially, it allows different applications to communicate and exchange data, facilitating tasks like sending messages, accessing websites, and sharing files. By handling these tasks, the Application Layer ensures that users can effectively utilize the internet without needing to understand the underlying technical details.
