This presentation is an overview of the QUIC/HTTP3 protocols and the current status in HAProxy since its introduction in version 2.6.
HAProxy introduced support for the QUIC/HTTP3 protocols in version 2.5, but with experimental status. Since then, development has continued on and we are now near to providing a complete implementation for the next release.
This talk will first start with a brief recap of the QUIC/HTTP3 protocols and their advantages. Then, we will focus on their HAProxy integration: how to configure and run QUIC/HTTP3 with HAProxy and what expectations you should have for the next release.
