    public interface HttpServerRequestHandler
    HttpServerRequestHandler represents a routine for processing of a specific group of HTTP requests. Request execution filters are designed to take care of protocol specific aspects, whereas individual request handlers are expected to take care of application specific HTTP processing. The main purpose of a request handler is to generate a response object with a content entity to be sent back to the client in response to the given request.
