1. Everything You Need to Know About QUIC and HTTP/3 by Liam Crilly
You wait decades for a new HTTP version and then two come along at once! Following just 6 years after HTTP/2 was introduced, HTTP/3 is now here and with it, QUIC, a brand new transport protocol. In this session we discuss why HTTP/2's reign was short lived and why we will be living with all three HTTP versions for the foreseeable future. Learn about QUIC and HTTP/3, why you need to adopt them and how NGINX can help upgrade existing apps/sites to HTTP/3.

2. Javascript + NGINX by Timo Stark
Do you love NGINX and JavaScript? What about configuring your favourite proxy and web server using JavaScript or TypeScript? Get the most out of your NGINX instances by extending your configuration with custom code! No matter if you just want to create a new variable or implement complex request handling logic in hundreds of lines of code. This session will help you get started using JavaScript in your NGINX configuration.

3. What is NGINX Agent? by Oliver O’Mahony
The NGINX Agent is a lightweight piece of software that can be installed next to NGINX OSS and/or NGINX Plus that provides local interaction with NGINX instances to allow administrative actions to be carried out. The NGINX Agent provides a secure entry point for managing NGINX instance configurations, collecting metrics, and gather a set of events on a NGINX instance.

All attendees abide by the NGINX Community Code of Conduct. Photos from this event may wind up on NGINX properties. Please let an organizer know if you do not want your picture shared.
