Features

• HTTP Client Libraries - Provides an asynchronous and blocking library for executing HTTP requests with connection pooling and TLS support.
• HTTP Clients - Facilitates communication with external web services through standard HTTP protocols.
• HTTP Request Builders - Provides a high-level interface for constructing and dispatching HTTP requests to external services.
• Remote Service Clients - Offers a high-level, type-safe networking tool for interacting with remote APIs.
• Connectors - Provides a robust interface for sending data to external services while managing session state.
• Connection Pooling - Maintains a cache of persistent network sockets to minimize latency during consecutive requests.
• Secure Network Communication - Establishes encrypted connections to remote servers to protect sensitive data during transit.
• Transport Layer Security - Secures network communication channels using transport layer security protocols with certificate verification.
• Client Libraries - Ergonomic and high-level HTTP client for making requests.
• Middleware-Based Request Pipelines - Processes requests and responses through a configurable middleware pipeline for authentication and redirects.
• Traffic Proxying - Supports routing network traffic through system or custom proxy servers to manage connectivity paths.
• Asynchronous Request Execution - Executes non-blocking network requests using asynchronous patterns to handle high concurrency.
• Network Security Configuration - Manages secure communication protocols and certificate validation for private network transmissions.
• Response Streaming - Automatically decompresses HTTP response bodies using streaming decoders to optimize memory and bandwidth.
• Connection Management Libraries - Manages the lifecycle and state of network connections to ensure consistent data exchange.
• Data Compression - Extracts compressed content using standard algorithms to reduce bandwidth usage.
• Network Proxies - Routes outgoing application traffic through proxy servers to manage connectivity paths.
• Session Management - Maintains persistent user sessions and cookies across multiple network requests.
• Cookie Management - Automatically manages and persists session cookies across multiple HTTP requests to maintain stateful connections.
• Redirection Managers - Provides configurable mechanisms for tracking and controlling automatic HTTP redirect following behavior.
• Data Transfer Tools - Accelerates data exchange by utilizing modern network protocols and efficient transfer techniques.
• Transfer Optimizations - Optimizes network performance by combining response decompression and connection reuse.
