=================================

• HTTP/2 frames have a binary format instead of the plain text format used in HTTP/1.1. This binary encoding reduces the overhead of textual representation, making the protocol more efficient in terms of both parsing and transmission.
• HTTP/2 employs header compression using the HPACK algorithm, which compresses headers before they are transmitted. This compression is performed on the binary-encoded headers, resulting in more compact representations compared to the text-based headers in HTTP/1.1.
• HTTP/2 allows for multiple concurrent streams within a single connection. Each stream is divided into frames, and these frames are binary-encoded. This multiplexing of streams allows for more efficient use of the connection and reduces latency.
• HTTP/2 introduces stream dependencies, prioritization and flow Control. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77GzfQGZwvw
