Ready to reclaim resources and keep bad actors at bay? This episode dives into graceful HTTP shutdown—think finishing pending requests instead of cutting connections cold turkey. We kick off by hitting the reasons you’d ever shut down gracefully, then roll through HTTP/1.1’s Connection header tricks and tackle HTTP/2’s GOAWAY frame magic.
Along the way we peek at implementation costs, Chromium’s client_socket_pool_manager, plus relevant issue trackers. Whether you’re troubleshooting backends or diving into network fundamentals, you’ll walk away knowing exactly how to slide servers into retirement without leaving clients hanging.
