In today's Internet, there are many challenges such as low-latency support for interactive communication, security and privacy of user data, as well as development and deployment of new transport mechanisms. Quick UDP Internet Connections (QUIC) is a new transport protocol that addresses these challenges, focusing on HTTP/2 transmission as a first use case. The first QUIC working group meeting took place at IETF-97 in November 2016, and it has begun the standardization process. This article introduces the key features of QUIC and discusses the potential challenges that require further consideration.
