UDP is a kind of connectionless data transfer, you only send single UDP packages instead of opening a TCP connection and then sending an receiving data via that TCP connection. UDP packages are often faster, but when people are behind firewalls or proxies or NATs then it is more complicated to handle, you need to configure more stuff so it often doesn't work for people.
