Enable HTTP/2 on Cloud Dispatcher

[Rohan_Garg]

Hi AEM Community,

I want to activate http/2 for my website in AEM.

This is done by enabling the HTTP/2 module in httpd.conf -

LoadModule http2_module modules/mod_http2.so

However, as per the below URL, only selected apache modules are supported and customers cannot add arbitrary modules (http2_module is not) -

How can I load the http2 module in the apache webserver in a cloud instance ?

Thanks,

Rohan Garg

Hi All,

Since our website has SSL certificate installed and the SSL offloading is not happening at our dispatcher then stands to reason that SSL offloading is happening at Load Balancers.

SSLEngine On and other configurations for Certifcate File, KeyFile and ChainFile must be configured at Load Balancer.

The http2_module modules/mod_http2.so is by default enabled in the load balancer, thus the HTTP 2 requests are automatically ensured by AEM Cloud Architecture.

Hope this helps!

Please be aware, that the end-user accesses AEM as a Cloud Service instances via the CDN, which does support HTTP/2 ootb. You don't need to care about the dispatcher properly using HTTP/2 or not.
