What is synchronous and Asynchronous post back ?

Asynchronous postback renders only the required part of the page; whereas, synchronous postback renders the entire page for any postback. Asynchronous postback executes only one postback at a time, that is, if you have two buttons doing asynchronous postback, the actions will be performed one by one; whereas, synchronous postback executes all the actions at once. Asynchronous postback only modifies the update panel that raises the postback; whereas, synchronous postback modifies the entire page.
