What are Transient and Volatile Modifiers?

Transient :

First need to know where it needed how it bridge the gap.

1) An Access modifier transient is only applicable to variable component only. It will not used with method or class.

2) Transient keyword cannot be used along with static keyword.

3) What is serialization and where it is used? Serialization is the process of making the object's state persistent. That means the state of the object is converted into a stream of bytes to be used for persisting (e.g. storing bytes in a file) or transferring (e.g. sending bytes across a network). In the same way, we can use the deserialization to bring back the object's state from bytes. This is one of the important concepts in Java programming because serialization is mostly used in networking programming. The objects that need to be transmitted through the network have to be converted into bytes. Before understanding the transient keyword, one has to understand the concept of serialization. If the reader knows about serialization, please skip the first point.

Note 1) Transient is mainly use for serialzation process. For that the class must implement the java.io.Serializable interface. All of the fields in the class must be serializable. If a field is not serializable, it must be marked transient.

Note 2) When deserialized process taken place they get set to the default value - zero, false, or null as per type constraint.

Note 3) Transient keyword and its purpose? A field which is declare with transient modifier it will not take part in serialized process. When an object is serialized(saved in any state), the values of its transient fields are ignored in the serial representation, while the field other than transient fields will take part in serialization process. That is the main purpose of the transient keyword.
