Answer
ViewData/ViewBag: Per-request data.
TempData: Persists across redirects until consumed. Backed by cookies or session.
Quick Answer
TempData persists across a redirect — set before redirecting, read in destination. Useful for success/error messages after form submissions. ViewData: dictionary for current request (controller sets, view reads). ViewBag: dynamic property syntax over ViewData. TempData uses either cookie or session backend. All three are for controller-to-view communication.
