Nginx 1.30 is released as the newest stable version, incorporating changes from the 1.29.x mainline branch.
It introduces Multipath TCP (MPTCP) support, allowing a single data connection to use multiple network paths for improved throughput and seamless handover.
HTTP 103 Early Hints support is added for preloading resources like CSS and JavaScript before the final server response, with browsers like Chrome already supporting it.
Other new features include HTTP/2 to backend, Encrypted Client Hello (ECH), sticky sessions for upstreams, and default proxy HTTP version set to HTTP/1.1 with Keep-Alive enabled.
