Hiranya,
HttpCore components keep connections alive indefinitely both on the
client and the server side. ConnectionKeepAliveStrategy interface is
provided by HttpClient only and is a client specific extension. It is
not available in the core components. If you want to enforce a
keep-alive limit of some kind you have to build this kind of logic into
the protocol handlers used by your application.
I suppose your are only interested in the NIO side of things. There is
an effort to provide a full fledged asynchronous HTTP client based on
HttpCore NIO, similar to what HttpClient is for HttpCore classic, but it
is presently in a VERY, VERY, VERY early development stage:
