All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractConnectionFactory, HttpConnectionFactory, NegotiatingServerConnectionFactory, ProxyConnectionFactory, SslConnectionFactory
```
public interface ConnectionFactory
```
A Factory to create Connection instances for Connectors.
A Connection factory is responsible for instantiating and configuring a Connection instance to handle an EndPoint accepted by a Connector.
A ConnectionFactory has a protocol name that represents the protocol of the Connections created. Example of protocol names include:

http
Creates a HTTP connection that can handle multiple versions of HTTP from 0.9 to 1.1

h2
Creates a HTTP/2 connection that handles the HTTP/2 protocol

SSL-XYZ
Create an SSL connection chained to a connection obtained from a connection factory with a protocol "XYZ".

SSL-http
Create an SSL connection chained to a HTTP connection (aka https)

SSL-ALPN
Create an SSL connection chained to a ALPN connection, that uses a negotiation with the client to determine the next protocol.
