Postgres gets a QUIC transport experiment

Original: Postgres with QUIC

A new write-up explores running PostgreSQL over the QUIC protocol instead of the usual TCP connection. QUIC, developed originally at Google and standardized by the IETF, promises faster connection setup, built-in encryption and better performance on unreliable networks. The project is drawing attention from database and infrastructure developers curious whether these transport-layer gains translate into real-world improvements for database traffic.

Why now: Engineers on Hacker News are debating whether QUIC's advantages over TCP can benefit database connections like Postgres.
