SPDY

Feature Status Dev Lead QA Lead Status
SPDY Landed in Firefox 11 Pat McManus Ioana Budnar Signed off on Fx 11

Summary

  • SPDY is a transport protocol designed as a successor to HTTP as part of Google's "Let's make the web faster" initiative.
  • The SPDY implementation wraps the existing HTTP implementation as a sort of in-browser proxy. This preserves all of the existing HTTP semantics and tools (e.g. firebug), while leveraging the on-the-wire benefits of SPDY.
  • This feature is targeted for Firefox 13.
