QUIC Version 1 is live on Cloudflare (cloudflare.com)

When will you support HTTP/3 to origin?


I have the same question. End-to-end http3, especially with the WebTransport API (available to test behind a flag in chrome), will be a huge boon to real-time games and conferencing. Http3 to the origin and http3 support in cloudflare workers (including sending and receiving datagrams and bidirectional streams I hope) will I think really push the web forward once more and more browsers and backends being to support the protocol.

Anyone from cloudflare know if this is on the roadmap?

Why did you delete your blog comment system and move here, if you're not going to respond to questions?


Can someone help me understand what benefits would I, as a cloudflare customer will get out of quic? Will my sites become much faster. Or are the benefits primarily to cloudflare itself?


Your websites should be slightly faster, especially for visitors with unreliable connections, because QUIC recovers from packet loss better than TCP-based HTTP/2.

QUIC also supports 0-RTT handshake, so overhead of establishing TLS connection is a bit lower.
