HTTP 204 No Content vs 409 Conflict

HTTP 204 (No Content) is a 2xx Success response, while 409 (Conflict) is a 4xx Client Error response. 204 indicates that the server successfully processed the request but is not returning any content. Common for DELETE operations and form submissions that don't need a response body. In contrast, 409 means that the request conflicts with the current state of the server. Often due to concurrent modification or business rule violations.
