QUIC L4 protocol

QUIC

QUIC (Quick UDP Internet Connections, pronounced quick) is an experimental transport layer[1] network protocol designed by Jim Roskind[2] at Google, initially implemented in 2012,[3] and announced as experimentation broadened[4] in 2013.[5][6] QUIC supports a set of multiplexed connections between two endpoints over User Datagram Protocol (UDP), and was designed to provide security protection equivalent to TLS/SSL, along with reduced connection and transport latency, and bandwidth estimation in each direction to avoid congestion. QUIC's main goal is to improve perceived performance of connection-oriented web applications that are currently using TCP.[1] It also provides a venue for rapid iteration of congestion avoidance algorithms, placing control into application space at both endpoints, rather than (the relatively slow to evolve) kernel space.

Has anybody picked this up on their networks? Started to pick it on my ntopng flows.

Looks like it's not experimental anymore but in full swing by Google.
