Reworking UpgradeRequest / UpgradeResponse APIs + They are now interfaces (it was impossible to instantiate them with the old API anyway) + The adapters have been broken out (so far, possibly remove in the future) + Reworked WebSocketUpgradeRequest (HttpClient version) to use new UpgradeRequest (websocket api version) interface + Reworked ServletUpgradeRequest and ServletUpgradeResponse to rely on actual HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse objects more for their data.
Jetty is a lightweight highly scalable java based web server and servlet engine. Our goal is to support web protocols like HTTP, HTTP/2 and WebSocket in a high volume low latency way that provides maximum performance while retaining the ease of use and compatibility with years of servlet development. Jetty is a modern fully async web server that has a long history as a component oriented technology easily embedded into applications while still offering a solid traditional distribution for webapp deployment.
