AreTCP connections that are newly opened for each request and closed after receiving a response.

Pros

  • Can require fewer resources as they are short-lived and do not keep unnecessary connections open.
  • Can be simpler to implement.
  • Can have lower latency for single requests since there is no overhead from maintaining an open connection. ​## Cons
  • Can have a higher overhead for multiple small requests since each request requires opening and closing connections.
  • Can have limited scalability for applications with high traffic or many concurrent users as the overhead of establishing new connections can become too large. ​## Implementations
  • HTTP/1.0
