    Hi Damir.

    I'm interested in the idea. However, way before writing a PoC, IMVHO I'd rather write a detailed document including:

- A brief summary of the main features of HTTP2 and why it might be a good fit for PG (of course there's a lot of doc in the wild about HTTP/2, so just a summary of the main relevant features and an analysis of how it may fit Postgres).

- A more or less thorough description of how every feature in current PostgreSQL protocol would be implemented on HTTP/2.

- Similar to the above, but applied to the v4 TODO feature list.

- A section for connection poolers, as  an auth, as these are very important topics.


    Hope this helps,

    Álvaro
   

Álvaro, it does help, thanks. This discussion is to inform such a document. But the topic is such that having a good PoC will move the discussion further much faster. 

Can you help with thinking about how would HTTP2 impact connection poolers, I don’t know much about those?
