HTTP 101 Switching Protocols vs 428 Precondition Required
HTTP 101 (Switching Protocols) is a 1xx Informational response, while 428 (Precondition Required) is a 4xx Client Error response. 101 indicates that the server understands the Upgrade header field request and indicates which protocol it is switching to. In contrast, 428 means that the server requires the request to be conditional (e.g., include If-Match header) to prevent lost updates.
