HEAD is an HTTP request technique that provides header information for a particular resource.
For example, if a URL might produce large information, we can get only the brief header information on sending a HEAD request.
The HEAD method is mainly used for hashing purposes to see if the document has changed since it is last accessed. If it is changed, we must send a request to the server for the latest document. The HEAD request includes the request line as the first line and then the request header. When the HEAD request goes to the server, it will process the HEAD request and send the response back to the client.
Here is an example of how to send HTTP HEAD requests in Java;
