gRPC [Java] Master Class: Build Modern API and Microservices - HTTP/2

The video tutorial explains the advantages of HTTP 2 over HTTP 1.1, highlighting its improved performance, reduced latency, and enhanced security. It covers the limitations of HTTP 1.1, such as the need for multiple TCP connections and lack of header compression. HTTP 2's features, including multiplexing, server push, and binary protocol support, are discussed. The tutorial emphasizes the benefits of using HTTP 2, especially in the context of the GRPC framework, which leverages these improvements for efficient API implementation.

What is one of the main advantages of HTTP 2 over HTTP 1.1 as demonstrated in the video?

• It loads images faster.

• It uses less bandwidth.

• It is easier to debug.

• It requires no internet connection.

Which of the following is a limitation of HTTP 1.1?

• It opens a new TCP connection for each request.

• It uses binary data transmission.

• It supports multiplexing.

• It compresses headers.

What feature of HTTP 2 allows it to send multiple messages over a single connection?

• Header compression

• Server push

• Binary protocol

• Multiplexing

How does HTTP 2 improve security compared to HTTP 1.1?

• It uses text-based data transmission.

• It uses a new encryption algorithm.

• SSL is required by default.

• It does not require encryption.

Which feature of HTTP 2 helps in reducing the size of network packets?

• Server push

• Header compression

• Multiplexing

• Binary data transmission

What does HTTP 2 use to transmit data more efficiently over the network?

• Multiple TCP connections

• Uncompressed headers

• Text-based protocol

• Binary protocol

What is a key benefit of using the GRPC framework with HTTP 2?

• It eliminates the need for a server.

• It automatically compresses all data.

• It allows for text-based debugging.

• It provides performance improvements out-of-the-box.
