I believe SCTP would fill in for that use case. For server-server communications there shouldn't be a problem, but I recall there's issues with client support & firewall rules, and I don't know if that status on that has changed if you need that. I also recall there being SCTP over UDP, but you lose some features there.
- 90minuteAPI 8y agoSCTP over UDP is how WebRTC data channels get their configurable reliability and ordering.
- georgyo 8y agoI think the internet would have been a much better place if SCTP caught on 15 years ago. It solved so many problems way ahead of it's time. Ah well.
- gmueckl 8y agoI looked into SCTP a bit. It seems to have a few quirks that puzzle me. E.g. the number of streams can be limited by what the underlying OS or other endpoint is willing to support. Not sure if that is what I want. I need to read a lot more to fully understand it.
