QUIC is an HTTP-like protocol announced by Google in 2013 that builds a whole transport layer on top of UDP. By removing the constraints of compatibility with TCP+HTTP+SSL from the stack, QUIC has let Google experiment with making web serving faster. Now in 2017, ~7% of all internet traffic is QUIC and Google is still adding fascinating new innovations to it. This talk will recap Google's Aug 2017 SIGCOMM presentation about Google's experience with QUIC. if you are an ACM member you can get the original paper here: http://dl.acm.org/authorize?N33907
