About

The ETag HTTP response header is an identifier for a specific version of a resource that is used for cache validation.

QUIC is a transport layer network protocol built on UDP that provides encrypted, low-latency data transfer, underpins HTTP/3, and was originally developed by Google.

It combines transport and security in a single protocol, establishes connections in as little as one round trip, supports multiple independent streams within a single connection to avoid blocking, and preserves sessions when a device changes IP address or network.
