The service “FTP” refers to the standard internet protocol - “File Transfer Protocol”. It is used to transfer files from one server to another server. To do this, the software of “FTP client” is used. This is a piece of software, which helps in file transfer to one to another computer.
On the destination computer, it is necessary to install on the FTP server. This server allows the transfer of the FTP files. Once FTP files have been installed, other connected users will be able to access the data files and transfer them.
There are many famous FTP client software like - cuteFTP, WSFTP, FileZilla etc. ColdFusion framework also gives you the independence to make your own FTP client. If an application programmer has already FTP client, then there is no need to develop a new FTP client.
There are many types of tasks which can not be performed by the FTP program -
