Talk:Stateless protocol

Opening heading

 * I suggest to change "WWW server" to "HTTP server". This sharpens the comparison to the FTP server as both acryonyms are protocols. Plus the term "WWW server" is a fuzzier and possibly dated term. VdHamer (talk) 21:31, 1 November 2008 (UTC)


 * One can argue that cookies maintain extra state, thus changing the story of stateless servers, but cookies are stored on the client side rather than the server side. I would remove the reference to the role of cookies (or elaborate on this in more detail). VdHamer (talk) 21:31, 1 November 2008 (UTC)


 * What about https – the encryption code is a state, isn’t it? --Fritz Jörn (talk) 09:40, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Stateless server → Stateless protocol —

HTTP server is not an example of a stateless server, it may be stateful (see discussion) and modern WWW servers usually are stateful. It's the HTTP protocol that is stateless, indeed. Now, HTTP article contains a red link because it was incorrect to refer to stateless server when discussing a protocol. Because the concept of stateless server appears to be closely connected with statelessness of a protocol, I propose to rename and expand the article instead of making yet a new stub.
