HTTP/2 has been in the works for many years but the updated version of the Internet most used protocol is finally here! HTTP/2 brings new features that overcome many of the HTTP/1.x limitations. During this talk, we will look at some of those features (e.g. binary framing, server-side push, HPACK, etc.). More importantly, we will discuss what is impact of HTTP/2 for Java developers. We will look into more details about Java 9’s upcoming HTTP/2 support and other network related enhancements (e.g. a new HTTP client, a new WebSocket API). And as a client is nothing without a server to connect to, we will also discuss some of the existing HTTP/2 Java based server implementations and the upcoming Servlet 4 API. Last not but least, we will also address some HTTP/2 related tools (e.g. how to debug HTTP/2 exchanges) and some best practices.Attend this session to learn how HTTP/2 might impact your future Java developments.
