Most of the web traffic today uses the HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), with Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) as the underlying transport protocol. Unfortunately, TCP is poorly suited for the short conversations that comprise a significant component of web traffic. The overhead of setting up and tearing down TCP state amortizes poorly for these small connections. Moreover, emerging modern web server systems employ HTTP redirection for server load-balancing and content distribution; such schemes require setting up (and tearing down) multiple TCP connections for servicing a single client request. This paper have designed and analyzed a hybrid scheme to address these issues. The scheme uses either TCP, or the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as the underlying transport protocol for carrying web traffic.
