Serialization and deserializatiom

Serialization is the process of converting an object into stream of bytes.

For example if we want to store a state of a object into database then we need to convert it into stream of bytes and then saved it into database.

So it's basic use to persist the object and it is also used in the remoting.

Deserialization is the opposite process of converting a stream of bytes back into
object.

If we want to store an image into database then this serialization process is used to do so.
