HTTP 100 Continue vs 101 Switching Protocols
Both HTTP 100 (Continue) and 101 (Switching Protocols) belong to the 1xx Informational category. 100 indicates that the server has received the request headers and the client should proceed to send the request body. This lets the client know it can continue with the request or abort if the headers were rejected. Meanwhile, 101 means that the server understands the Upgrade header field request and indicates which protocol it is switching to.
