Media over QUIC Transport rev 19 lands on the IETF Datatracker
This document defines Media over QUIC Transport (MOQT), a publish/ subscribe protocol that runs over QUIC and WebTransport. MOQT leverages the features of these transports, such as streams, datagrams, priorities, and partial reliability. MOQT operates both point-to-point and through intermediate relays, enabling scalable low-latency delivery. Despite its name, MOQT is media agnostic and can be used for a wide range of use cases.
