    A STARTING-POINT EXAMPLE

    Hypothetical standard operating procedure

    Adapt this example to your site, access, tools, and change process. It is our suggested procedure, informed by the sources below.

    1. Configure CDN (e.g., CloudFront, Cloudflare) to enable HTTP/3 support on distribution.
    2. Enable Brotli compression for text-based content types (HTML, CSS, JS).
    3. Test response headers to confirm HTTP/3 and Brotli usage in varied browsers.
    4. Monitor network transfer sizes for critical page assets.
    5. Regularly review protocols after CDN or server updates for compliance.

    Watch for

    Lack of compression and HTTP/3 can increase load times and degrade Core Web Vitals.

    Definition of done

    All text-based resources deliver compressed over HTTP/3 with decreased transfer size.
