Computer Network Abbreviations Full Forms Techhyme

Abbreviations or rather say a short form of the words are now used everywhere. An abbreviation is a group of words or sentences combined to make a shorter meaningful word.

Abbreviations are used in every subject and also in day-to-day life and it is necessary to know the full forms of the abbreviations that we use commonly and also in subjects like Computers, Databases and Networks. Abbreviations not only save time and energy however also a smarter way to communicate.
