Keep-Alive Connection

Answer

HTTP keep-alive, or HTTP persistent connection, is an instruction that allows a single TCP connection to remain open for multiple HTTP requests or responses.

By default, HTTP connections close after each request. Enabling the keep-alive header allows you to serve all web page resources over a single connection. Keep-alive also reduces both CPU and memory usage on your server.

For Vonage Verify product, the timeout value is 90 seconds.
