Quality of Service (QoS)

 

Quality of Service (QoS) is the idea that transmission rates, error rates, and other network characteristics can be measured, improved and, to some extent, guaranteed in advance. QoS is of particular concern for the transmission of important, high-bandwidth or latency-sensitive data. Transmitting this kind of content dependably is difficult in public networks using ordinary "best effort" protocols.

 

Network providers use different methods of providing QoS across networks to cope with the differing demands of applications such as voice, video, thin client etc. It is therefore important to carefully match the level of QoS to the requirements of the application to ensure performance is as high as possible as well as being predictable.
