• InternetRelated: TCP handles reliable delivery for many Internet applications above IP.

• Internet ProtocolRelated: TCP adds reliability and ordering that IP itself does not guarantee.

• Packet switchingRelated: TCP reorders received segments and retransmits missing data when applications need reliability.

• ARPANETRelated: TCP replaced ARPANET's Network Control Protocol as the network adopted the Internet protocol suite.

• HTTPRelated: Traditional HTTP deployments carry messages over TCP connections.

• Client–server modelRelated: It carries many client–server exchanges while handling retransmission and ordering.

• Hypertext Transfer ProtocolRelated: HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 commonly rely on TCP to carry their messages.

• Web serverRelated: Traditional HTTP connections rely on TCP to carry their data.

• Distributed denial-of-service attackRelated: TCP connection state can become a resource targeted by flooding attacks.

• Reverse proxyRelated: Reverse proxies accept and establish network connections using transport protocols such as TCP.

• Simple Mail Transfer ProtocolRelated: SMTP commonly carries its sessions over TCP connections.

• Network packetRelated: TCP data is carried inside IP packets, though TCP segments and packets are distinct units.

• Proxy serverRelated: Many proxy connections rely on TCP streams between each pair of endpoints.

• DownloadRelated: TCP can retransmit lost data so a transfer arrives in order.
