Data transfer object

A Data Transfer Object (DTO) is a way to store and quickly transport data between two different objects or software programs. It looks like a container that holds all the information needed to transfer the data. For example, if you need to transfer the information of each student in a class from school A to school B, you would create a DTO. The DTO would contain the name, age, and address of each student so that it can be easily sent over to school B.
