* Kong Gateway now includes WebSocket validation functionality. Websockets are a type of persistent connection that works on top of HTTP.

Previously, Kong Gateway 2.x supported limited WebSocket connections, where plugins only ran during the initial connection phase instead of for each frame.
Now, Kong Gateway provides more control over WebSocket traffic by implementing plugins that target WebSocket frames.

This release includes:
* [Service](/gateway/3.0.x/admin-api/#service-object) and [route](/gateway/3.0.x/admin-api/#route-object) support for `ws` and `wss` protocols
* WebSocket PDK modules: [kong.websocket.client](/gateway/3.0.x/plugin-development/pdk/kong.websocket.client) and [kong.websocket.upstream](/gateway/3.0.x/plugin-development/pdk/kong.websocket.upstream).
* [New plugin handlers](/gateway/3.0.x/plugin-development/custom-logic/#websocket-plugin-development)
* Two new plugins: [WebSocket Size Limit](/hub/kong-inc/websocket-size-limit/) and [WebSocket Validator](/hub/kong-inc/websocket-validator/)
