website, we noticed a 10% improvement in the page load times across the site. This is where Server Push is a game changer. Instead of waiting for the HTTP response, it allows the server to “push” the resources it thinks the client will need into its cache. HTTP/2 is awesome. When we enabled HTTP/2 on the settled.co.uk

Websites would magically become 50% faster with the flip of a switch! However, many other devices are sitting between the client and the server that also have their own TCP code on board (examples include firewalls, load balancers, routers, caching servers, proxies, etc.).

Depending on how it is configured, Redis can act like a database, a cache or a message broker.
