As of today's web standards, HTTP/2 is a necessity for better performance over the network. Apache, being one of the most widely used web servers, supports HTTP/2 starting from version 2.4.17, provided it runs with a compatible SSL/TLS library. HTTP/2 boasts numerous advantages over its predecessor, including header compression, request multiplexing, and server push capabilities, all of which contribute to reduced latency and faster page load times. Before you begin to enable HTTP/2, ensure that you have the following:
- Apache version 2.4.17 or higher.
- OpenSSL 1.0.2 or newer if you plan to use HTTPS.
- Access to the server with sudo or root privileges.
- Basic knowledge of Linux Bash commands and Apache configurations.
