Used communication protocols need to support the bidirectional flow of information and have to be optimized with regard to security or latency constraints. To address these issues, RESTful approaches have recently gained much attention from the community. In this context, different application layer transport protocols can be used to realize the required data exchange. Besides HTTP/1.1, developed and standardized in the 1990s, new protocols like HTTP/2 and the QUIC transfer protocol my be suitable candidates. The impact of the different protocols on the overall performance for web and AAL services is still an open research question. This paper narrows this gap by conducting a measurement-based comparison of the three described protocols with regard to their performance in terms of web page loading times for Google web services.
