What is the Canonicalization and Use?

Canonicalization is the process of converting data that involves more than one representation into a standard approved format. Such a conversion ensures that data conforms to canonical rules. This compares different representations to assure equivalence, to count numbers of distinct data structures, to impose a meaningful sorting order and to improve algorithm efficiency, thus eliminating repeated calculations.

Canonicalization is use to remove the duplicacy issue. If you have multiple url having same results it creates duplicacy issue and to remove this issue we use canonical tag.

In computer science, canonicalization (sometimes standardization or normalization) is a process for converting data that has more than one possible representation into a "standard", "normal", or canonical form.

Canonicalization is the process of avoiding multiple url for same domain

In computer science, canonicalization (sometimes standardization or normalization) is a process for converting data that has more than one possible representation into a "standard", "normal", or canonical form. This can be done to compare different representations for equivalence, to count the number of distinct data structures, to improve the efficiency of various algorithms by eliminating repeated calculations, or to make it possible to impose a meaningful sorting order.
