These two methods enables communication between the Client and  the Server   1. GET:       -> Requests data from a specific source       -> Query string, name/value pairs sent in the URL itself. Example : /test/demo_form.php?name1=value1&name2=value2       -> Request can be cached       -> Request remains in the browser history       -> Request can of restricted lenght only (Max URL lenght is 2048 Characters)       -> Request is insecure, hence should not be consisting of sensitive data       -> Only ASCII character are allowed in the GET request   2. POST:       -> Submits the data to be processed to a specific resource       -> Data is sent in the body, not in the URL       -> Data has no restrictions on length       -> Data is secured as it cannot be cached or be saved in the browser history
