IoT is not about latency. IoT is about devices being behind a NAT which does not allow inbound connections.
With UDP-based HTTP/3 it is possible to do "udp hole punching".

- aboardRat4 2y agoFor some definition of "reliably". In the sense that nothing is really reliable in the presence of state-level adversaries censuring traffic, malicious ISPs, and crappy hardware. In general I have been more successful with QUIC hole punching than with ipv6. But having a standard and relatively broadly implemented way to make reliable "TCP-like" streams over UDP is a great thing regardless.
