"HTTP is stateless, which means for each request client has to create a new connection with the server."
That's not what stateless means. And unless I am gravely mistaken, HTTP over SPDY is still stateless.
- laktek 14y agoWell actually the HTTP connections are stateless, but not the SPDY connection. SPDY connection keeps the session open between two endpoints and do have the knowledge about the other streams. That's what makes it possible to do server push or header augmentation.
- mbelshe 14y agoBTW - TCP & SSL maintain connection level state too. This isn't anything new to SPDY and is transparent to the application above.
