QUIC and HTTP/3: the next step in web performance
In recent years, the ways that we can deliver HTTP has improved in occasional leaps, from 1.0, 1.1, a big step to 2.0, and now 3.0. One of the biggest obstacles has been TCP, which isn’t a great fit for HTTP, but we are stuck with it – or are we? QUIC is a reimagining of TCP that runs over “the other protocol”, UDP, and integrates TLS 1.3, giving us a step up in performance and security. Discover how it works, how you can configure your servers and applications, and deploy and test it today.
