Sluggish webapps no more with HTTP/2 and Vert.x

Track: Web Slides
Abstract

Do you have that feeling that no matter how much network speed gets faster, web pages always taker longer do load? It’s 2017 and don’t we already have a solution for this? In fact we do! The solution goes through HTTP/2 and Reactive Systems.

Join us on this session and we’ll discuss the limitations of HTTP/1.1 and the new improvements brought to us by HTTP/2. But just HTTP/2 is not enough! We need to rearchitect part of our applications to allow higher concurrency and lower response times. We also need to be reactive: expects lots of demos and explore how Vert.x and HTTP/2 can solve the sluggish webapps problem.
