Introduction to HTTP mind-map

March 1st, 2009 bodom_lx No comments

As I promised about 4 hours ago, here is my introduction to Hyper Text Transfer Protocol in form of a mind map.
It is to be intended as a really short introduction to this protocol. Like the previous one about computer networks, the mindmap summarizes materials copyrighted by Tanenbaum and also material taken from Wikipedia.

The topics covered are:

  • Scope of the protocol
  • HTTP connection
    • HTTP/1.0
    • HTTP/1.1
  • HTTP request methods:
    • GET
    • HEAD
    • PUT
    • POST
    • DELETE
    • TRACE
    • CONNECT
    • OPTIONS
  • Message Headers
    • Request Headers – all
    • Response Headers – all
  • Status Codes:
    • 1xx Information
    • 2xx Success
    • 3xx Redirection
    • 4xx Client error
    • 5xx Server Error
  • Sessions:
    • Cookies
    • Server-Side sessions
  • Secure HTTP – HTTPS:
    • By URI scheme
    • HTTP Upgrade Header
    • SSL/TLS
