The Content-Type header (e.g. application/json ) tells the recipient how to interpret the request or response payload body.
Using validation headers like ETag or If-Modified-Since , a 304 Not Modified response saves network bandwidth.
502 Bad Gateway occurs when reverse proxies (e.g. Nginx) fail to receive a valid response from backend web workers (e.g. Gunicorn/Flask).
The Access-Control-Allow-Origin CORS header explicitly grants specified origins permission to read resources via browser scripts.
The Leaky Bucket Algorithm smooths out traffic bursts by processing requests at a fixed continuous throughput rate.
The Retry-After header informs client software when rate limit windows reset or servers expect to recover from maintenance.
response_model filters outbound data, ensuring private fields (e.g., hashed passwords) are stripped before returning payloads.
