Introduction HTTP/3 is the 3rd major version of the HTTP protocol that powers the internet. In comparison with the previous version of http which relied on TCP, http/3 relies on QUIC. QUIC Specification published at 6th June, 2022 Developed initially at Google in 2012, had its way to IETF and public by 2022. A decade for completion and standardization !!! Are the semantics like requests, methods, status codes still the same like previous versions of http/2? yes, they still remain the same The underlying mechanisms are changed, like http/3 uses space congestion control over UDP (User Datagram protocol) Head-Of-Line Blocking (HOL) This is a performance problem where there is a queue of packets built due to the first packet that is yet to be consumed.
