HTTP/2 Comes to Java!

It's hard to overstate how much has changed in the world since HTTP/1.1 went final in June of 1999. There were no smartphones, Google had not yet IPO'd, Java Swing was less than a year old, some of you were still at school... you get the idea! Yet for all that change, HTTP remains at version 1! HTTP/2 has been finalised earlier this year (in 2015!) and with that comes the need for a new version of Servlet. It will embrace HTTP/2 and expose its key features to Java EE 8 applications. This session will introduce you to HTTP/2 and its new capabilities. We will also at the progress of the Servlet 4.0 API and shares some ideas about how developers can take advantage of this exciting update to the world's most successful application protocol on the world's most popular programming language. Finally, we will also touches on what HTTP/2 means for Java SE.
