The best example of how BSD Sockets can be used is the Internet Services. These services use BSD Sockets to communicate between remote hosts. Using the BSD Sockets facility, you can write your own distributed application programs to do a variety of tasks.

For example, you can write distributed application programs to:

  • Access a remote database.

  • Access multiple computers at one time.

  • Spread tasks across several hosts.
