Overview
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
This proposal is about extending streaming to use multiple tunnels per
|
|
connection, similar to multipath TCP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Motivation
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
Client tunnels are used by the streaming lib in a fairly standard TCP manner.
|
|
|
|
It would be preferable to allow a multipath TCP-like solution, where client
|
|
tunnels are used based on individual characteristics like:
|
|
|
|
- Latency
|
|
- Capacity
|
|
- Availability
|
|
|
|
|
|
Design
|
|
======

|
|
TBD
