Buffer

English (en)

Buffer
A buffer contains data that is stored 
for a short amount of time, typically 
in the computer's memory (RAM). Buffer 
is a temporary storage we use when one 
component feeds data to the other, but 
their speeds aren't the same.

A buffer is the middle gap between an 
input and output. Buffers are set up 
in every program to hold data coming 
in and going out. In a video streaming 
application, the program uses buffers 
to store an advance supply of video 
data to compensate for momentary 
delays.
