Base-64
Base 64 is an encoding scheme that converts binary data into text format so that encoded
textual data can be easily transported over network un-corrupted and without any data
loss. Base64 is used commonly in a number of applications including email via MIME,
and storing complex data in XML.
Problem with sending normal binary data to a network
is that bits can be
misinterpreted by underlying protocols, produce incorrect data at
receiving node
and that is why we use this method.
The term Base64 is taken from the
Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME) standard, which is widely used for HTTP
and XML, and was originally developed for encoding email attachments for transmission.
