Connection-Oriented means that when devices communicate, they perform handshaking to set up an end-to-end connection. Connection-Oriented systems can only work in bi-directional communications environments.

Connection-less means that no effort is made to set up a dedicated end-to-end connection. Walkie-talkies, or Citizens Band radios are a good examples of connection-less communication.

TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, it makes a connection and checks whether the data is received, and resends if it is not. UDP is a connectionless protocol, it does not guarantee delivery by first connecting and checking whether data is received.

If FTP did not have TCP working with it, it could be considered connectionless. TCP is connection oriented and it verifies the FTP transfers have been received.
