This talk explores how QUIC and HTTP/3 are used for a range of diverse use cases. It provides a rapid on-ramp to the technology concepts and focuses on practical considerations that help to effectively use, operate, manage, or debug these fairly new protocols. We'll dive into the different approaches that applications can take to using QUIC, by focusing on HTTP/3 and related MASQUE tunneling techniques. We'll cover QUIC features, caveats, opportunities, and potential pitfalls. By the end, the audience will be comfortable with QUIC and familiar with a range of tools and resources that will help aid with specific needs of today or future developments of tomorrow.
