Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is a string of characters used to identify a resource by using a name, a location, or both. It can represent various types of resources, including web pages, images, videos, files, books, and more.
URI has two specializations known as Uniform Resource Locator (URL) and Uniform Resource Name (URN). URI serves as a unique identifier for a resource either by location or by providing a persistent identifier.
URL is a type of URI that specifies the absolute location of a web resource. It provides the necessary information to locate and access a resource on the internet.
Example URL: https://fullforms.com/about.php
URN is a type of URI that is used to provide a persistent and location-independent identifier for a resource. It is designed to be globally unique and persistent even if the resource's location changes. It is used to assign unique names to resources, such as books, articles, documents, digital media, or any other type of resource.
Example URN: urn:isbn:0451450523
