MsQuic is a Microsoft implementation of the IETF QUIC protocol. It is cross-platform, written in C and designed to be a general-purpose QUIC library. MsQuic also has C++ API wrapper classes and exposes interop layers for both Rust and C#. QUIC has many benefits when compared to existing "TLS over TCP" scenarios. MsQuic has several features that differentiate it from other QUIC implementations. Optimized for client and server. Optimized for maximal throughput and minimal latency. Asynchronous IO. Receive side scaling (RSS) support. UDP send and receive coalescing support. All packets are encrypted and handshake is authenticated with TLS 1.3. Parallel streams of (reliable and unreliable) application data. Exchange application data in the first round trip (0-RTT). Improved congestion control and loss recovery. Survives a change in the clients IP address or port. Stateless load balancing.
