METHODS FOR PROTOCOL OPTIMIZATION OF WEB RESOURCES: HTTP/2, HTTP/3, AND GLOBAL CONTENT DISTRIBUTION

Zabelina Varvara Alexandrovna, Goryachkin Boris Sergeevich

The development of web technologies and the increasing volume of data delivered by web resources create an acute need for optimization of their performance. Traditional approaches to data transmission require evaluation of their impact on content delivery and reconsideration of architecture design in the context of multi-protocol and geographically distributed environments. This work addresses the problem of comprehensive optimization of web resources based on modern data transmission protocols, global content distribution systems, and caching strategies. A detailed analysis of the evolution of data transmission protocols and their impact on web resource performance has been conducted. Practical methodologies for implementing HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 have been identified, with justification for selection based on target audience and network interaction conditions. The impact of CDN and Origin Shield usage on global performance indicators has been investigated, and optimal caching strategies for various content types have been proposed.
