Can somebody explain differences between those mentioned in the title? Both are called "streams", however, their function seem to be quite different.

This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
- "Requests for learning materials (tutorials, how-tos etc.) are off topic. The only exception is questions about where to find official documentation (e.g. POSIX specifications).

Stream (computing)
Simply a sequence of data elements accessed one at a time. Different from batch data which is processed a batch at a time.
Standard Streams
The Standard Streams stdin
, stdout
, and stderr
are available to all programs. They abstract away the physical I/O layer. You can consider each as a character or byte stream.
Unix STREAMS
A native framework used to implement device drivers, network protocols, and inter-process communication. It is part of the Unix System V kernel. It is not a part of Linux. Linux has Pipes and FIFOs (Named Pipes) for inter-process communication.
You list Wikipedia, but this can just be seen as a hint that the termstreams
is used for various purposes. Also note that in the termstandard streams
the termstandard
is no more than an adjectiv to the termstreams
