SSH
SSH means “Secure Shell”. It has a built-in username/password authentication system to establish a connection. It uses Port 22 to perform the negotiation or authentication process for connection. Authentication of the remote system is done by the use of public-key cryptography and if necessary, it allows the remote computer to authenticate users.
More often than not, SSH uses SSL under the hood, so they are both as secure as each other. One advantage of SSH is that using key-pair authentication is actually quite easy to do, and built right into the protocol.
SSL
SSL means “Secure Sockets Layer”. Many protocols — like HTTP, SMTP, FTP, and SSH ‘“ were adjusted to include the support of SSL. The port that it typically uses to make a connection to a secure server is 443. Basically, it works as a tier in a certain protocol to provide cryptographic and security functions.
Unlike SSH, it does not require any authentication. It is most often implemented for transmitting You do not have permission to view the full content of this post.

It will do just that; it will secure all the transactions and exchanges between the remote computer and the business server. It just makes business sense to have an SSL certificate.
Summary:
1. Normally, SSH uses port 22 while SSL uses port 443.
2. SSL is used predominantly for securely transmitting critical information like in credit cards and banking. On the other hand, SSH is for securely executing commands across the internet.
3. SSH uses a username/password authentication system to establish a secure connection while SSL does not really bother with it.
4. SSH is more about network tunneling while SSL is more about certificates.
