We will also look at the various types of latency, the causes of network latency, and how to check, measure, and test it.

Today, we’re announcing the public preview of TCP Proxy — a new way to expose TCP ports publicly. Until now, services on Koyeb could only be publicly exposed via HTTP, HTTP/2, WebSocket, and gRPC protocols. TCP-based workloads were limited to private access within the mesh network for service-to-service communication. With TCP Proxy, that changes. You can now make any TCP service publicly accessible with minimal configuration.

In this blog, I’ll walk you through the essential steps and guidance for parsing network protocols. We’ll assume that you’re already running a Layer 4 (L4) proxy to capture packets into a buffer, and you have both the client and destination connection objects readily available. This guide will focus on helping you convert raw network data into meaningful, structured information.
