HTTP 102 Processing vs 307 Temporary Redirect
HTTP 102 (Processing) is a 1xx Informational response, while 307 (Temporary Redirect) is a 3xx Redirection response. 102 indicates that the server has received and is processing the request, but no response is available yet. Prevents the client from timing out. In contrast, 307 means that the resource temporarily resides at a different URL. Unlike 302, this guarantees the HTTP method will NOT be changed.
