Why TCP Needs a Rethink: RDMA Insights and 800 Gbps Experiments

The talk examines the challenges of using standard Linux TCP for high‑performance data‑center workloads, explores how RDMA can provide zero‑copy and asynchronous kernel bypass, and presents experimental results from an FPGA‑based prototype that approaches 800 Gbps packet rates while highlighting congestion‑control and CPU‑utilization trade‑offs.

16 TCP Network Programming Best Practices for Building Robust Applications

The article presents sixteen practical TCP network‑programming best practices—from setting SO_REUSEADDR and defining port standards to using application‑layer heartbeats, exponential backoff, connection limits, client‑side load balancing, periodic DNS refresh, optimal buffer sizing, configurable timeouts, proper connection‑pool sizing, and comprehensive metrics—to help developers build stable, reliable applications.
