What is the difference between ETag and Last-Modified?

ETag and Last-Modified are both HTTP headers used for caching and conditional requests. ETag is a unique identifier for a specific version of a resource, while Last-Modified indicates the last time the resource was changed.

How does the server generate an ETag?

The server generates an ETag by creating a hash of the resource's content or using a version number. This identifier changes whenever the resource is modified.

Yes, you can use both headers together. They serve similar purposes but can provide different benefits depending on the caching strategy.

ETags can be more efficient because they allow for more granular control over resource versions, while Last-Modified relies on timestamps.
