Hussein Nasser: HTTP Graceful shutdown | The Backend Engineering Show

Ever wondered how to wind down HTTP connections without dropping your users mid-request? Hussein Nasser’s latest Backend Engineering Show tackles exactly that—why and how to gracefully shut down connections in HTTP/1.1 with the Connection header, and in HTTP/2 using the GOAWAY frame, complete with deep dives into performance trade-offs and real-world Chromium code examples.

On top of that, you get all the timestamps, GitHub/Chromium issue links, and a treasure trove of crash courses—from Node.js internals and NGINX to database and networking fundamentals—so you can master every layer of your backend stack.
