AJAX is "Asynchronous Java Script and XML". Mainly used if we need to refresh a part of a HTML page but not the entire page. In Ajax after sending the request you can continue with other operations on the page. We can say it as Asynchronous call.
Using Java Script we will send the request using the XMLHTTPRequest object to any back end process to handle the request and then the response we will get as an XML, using DOM we will parse the XML and populate the data whatever we want.
