Abstract:
The ALTO base protocol [RFC7285] defines both the ALTO information
resources and their transport from the server to the client. Using
HTTP/1.x as the transport protocol, the ALTO transport in the base
protocol includes the limitations of HTTP/1.x. ALTO/SSE [RFC8895]
defines a new transport design addressing some of the limitations,
but is still based on HTTP/1.x. This document introduces ALTO new
transport, which introduces ALTO transport information structures
(TIS) at an ALTO server. The introduction of ALTO TIS allows at
least two types of efficient transport using HTTP: (1) HTTP/2/3
independent client (long) pull allowed by non-blocking, newer HTTP,
and (2) HTTP/2 specific server push. This document defines ALTO TIS
and the first design. A companion document
[draft-schott-alto-new-transport-push] defines server-push ALTO
transport based on ALTO TIS.
