Peer 2 Peer (P2P) – Peer-to-peer (P2P) refers to a decentralized communications model where each party has the same capabilities and either party can initiate a communication session. In simpler terms, it means direct communication between two devices without the need for a central server. This type of network allows users to share resources like files, data, or computing power directly with one another. P2P technology is often used in file sharing, messaging apps, and video/audio streaming services. It’s like having a direct line of communication between you and another person, without any intermediaries getting in the way.
