If a user is not tolerant to data loss, they should not use UDP. This is an option to increase the efficiency of data transfer and avoid blocking the main application. A specific example of a use case for this is instrumenting a perl application for sending spans to [Jaeger agent](https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/1.22/deployment/#agent), which only accepts thrift void-style messages over UDP. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
