UDP vs SCTP
Developers should use UDP when building applications that require minimal latency and can tolerate some data loss, such as live video/audio streaming, VoIP, online multiplayer games, or IoT sensor data transmission meets developers should learn sctp when working on systems requiring robust, fault-tolerant network communication, such as telephony (e. Here's our take.
UDP

UDP
Nice PickDevelopers should use UDP when building applications that require minimal latency and can tolerate some data loss, such as live video/audio streaming, VoIP, online multiplayer games, or IoT sensor data transmission
Pros
- +It is also essential for implementing network protocols like DNS and DHCP, where quick, lightweight communication is more important than perfect reliability
- +Related to: tcp, networking
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

The Verdict
Use UDP if: You want it is also essential for implementing network protocols like dns and dhcp, where quick, lightweight communication is more important than perfect reliability and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use SCTP if: You prioritize g over what UDP offers.
Developers should use UDP when building applications that require minimal latency and can tolerate some data loss, such as live video/audio streaming, VoIP, online multiplayer games, or IoT sensor data transmission
