What is URI?
A URI or Uniform Resource Identifier is a string identifier that refers to a resource on the internet. It is a string of characters that is used to identify any resource on the internet using location, name, or both.
A URI has two subsets; URL (Uniform Resource Locator) and URN (Uniform Resource Number). If it contains only a name, it means it is not a URL. Instead of directly URI, we mostly see the URL and URN in the real world.
A URI contains scheme, authority, path, query, and a fragment. Some most common URI schemes are HTTP, HTTPs, ftp, Idap, telnet, etc.
