Will SPDY Solve Web Application Performance Issues?

In the TCP, HTTP and SPDY webinar I described the web application performance roadblocks caused by TCP and HTTP and HTTP improvements that remove most of them. Google went a step further and created SPDY, a totally redesigned HTTP. What is SPDY? Is it really the final solution? How much does it help? Hopefully you’ll find answers to some of these questions in the last part of the webinar.

  1. Jetty does SPDY Server Pushes. Additionally, it will automatically figure out which resources to push after the first request.

    1. I did - let's reinvent TCP, but run it over UDP or it won't go through firewalls ;)
