Similarly, slow networks can lead to painfully slow file transfers for large media files or CAD (computer-aided design). For example, the trombone effect (the inefficient backhauling of cloud bound traffic through a specific network endpoint) often meant MPLS connectivity to cloud assets was worse than standard Internet connections.

Additional network resilience mechanisms Successfully routing a packet over the internet from its source to its destination is not trivial. Message integrity and guaranteed delivery with TCP/IP Because IP does not require acknowledgments from endpoints, it does not ensure delivery; therefore, it is considered an unreliable protocol.
