Abstract:
The ALTO protocol (RFC 7285) leverages HTTP/1.x and is designed for
the simple, sequential request-reply use case, in which an ALTO
client requests a sequence of information resources, and the server
responds with the complete content of each resource one at a time.
ALTO/SSE (RFC 8895) defines a multiplexing protocol on top of
HTTP/1.x, so that the server can incrementally push resource updates
to the client whenever monitored network information resources
change, allowing the client to monitor multiple resources at the same
time. However, HTTP/2 and later versions already support concurrent,
non-blocking transport of multiple streams in the same HTTP
connection.
To take advantage of newer HTTP features, this document introduces
the ALTO Transport Information Publication Service (TIPS). TIPS
allows the naming of (i.e., assigning resource identifiers to)
individual incremental updates to multiple ALTO information
resources, and the distribution of those names. It gives an ALTO
client the capability to explicitly request (pull) a specific
incremental update. It also provides an ALTO server the capability
to push a specific incremental update. This document defines TIPS as
a service, with client pull and server push.
