Better Performance with HTTP/2

Explore the latest evolution of the HTTP protocol in this 52-minute conference talk focusing on HTTP/2 and its impact on server performance. Discover how HTTP/2 addresses the HTTP/TCP impedance mismatch and eliminates the need for traditional workarounds like concatenation and CSS spriting. Learn about the protocol's game-changing effects on server-side concurrency and examine why the Vert.x concurrency model is particularly well-suited for serving HTTP/2 applications. Gain insights from Julien Viet, the Vert.x project lead at Red Hat, as he shares his expertise on improving web application performance and user experience through HTTP/2 implementation.
