> Is HTTP/2 proxy support planned for the near future? Short answer: No, there are no plans. Long answer: There is almost no sense to implement it, as the main HTTP/2 benefit is that it allows multiplexing many requests within a single connection, thus [almost] removing the limit on number of simalteneous requests - and there is no such limit when talking to your own backends. Moreover, things may even become worse when using HTTP/2 to backends, due to single TCP connection being used instead of multiple ones. On the other hand, implementing HTTP/2 protocol and request multiplexing within a single connection in the upstream module will require major changes to the upstream module. Due to the above, there are no plans to implement HTTP/2 support in the upstream module, at least in the foreseeable future. If you still think that talking to backends via HTTP/2 is something needed - feel free to provide patches. -- Maxim Dounin http://nginx.org/ _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
