These applications send requests to servers using various protocols such as HTTP, FTP, SMTP etc. A request is a message, often in the form of a specially formatted data packet, sent by an application to invoke some service or process on a remote server. The server receives the request, processes it, and returns a response. This concept is fundamental to the functioning of the internet, where web browsers (applications) send requests to web servers, which respond with the requested web pages, images, files, etc. Example: [object Object],[object Object],[object Object] LOST view: OV-Customs Functional Architecture Principles Identifier: http://data.europa.eu/dr8/egovera/ApplicationsAndRequestsBusinessService EIRA traceability: eira:DigitalPublicBusinessService ABB name: egovera:ApplicationsAndRequestsBusinessService EIRA concept: eira:ArchitectureBuildingBlock Last modification: 2023-08-08 dct:identifier: http://data.europa.eu/dr8/egovera/ApplicationsAndRequestsBusinessService dct:title: Applications and Requests Digital Public Service
