‎Reliable data transfers

While UDP is not a reliable transport, QUIC adds a layer on top of UDP that introduces reliability. It offers re-transmissions of packets, congestion control, pacing and the other features otherwise present in TCP.

Data sent over QUIC from one end-point will appear in the other end sooner or later, as long as the connection is maintained.
