ServerSocket vs. DatagramSocket


DatagramSocket allows a server to accept UDP packets, whereas 
ServerSocket allows an application to accept TCP connections.

UDP packets don't guarantee delivery, you'll need to handle missing packets in your client/server.

TCP guarantees delivery, so all you need to do is have your applications read and write using a socket's InputStream and OutputStream.
