HTTP/2 introduced multiplexing, header compression, and server push over TCP. HTTP/3 replaces TCP with QUIC (UDP-based), eliminating head-of-line blocking and improving performance on unreliable networks. Understanding these protocols helps developers optimize web performance, configure servers correctly, and debug network issues. Most CDNs and modern web servers now support both protocols.
