@espectalll @angristan QUIC is usually terminated by load-balancing HTTP proxies, even in large shops.

The general design is that these frontends open a number of permanent connections to the application servers.

@codewiz @angristan yeah, I do understand that, I'm just confused by the concept of having multiple web servers

@espectalll @angristan The boundary between public internet and inter-datacenter protocols is blending: HTTP has also gained the ability to do pipelining, multiple sub-streams, traffic classes, etc.

So, gRPC is built on top of HTTP/2 and, I guess, will upgrade to HTTP/3 when both the client and server can speak it: grpc.io/
