Remember that most of MS products have hyper descriptive and generic names.

Their SQL server is called SQL Server. Their MVC framework is called MVC.

Meanwhile their team messenger has changed names like 12 times.

And anything dev-y gets swallowed into the Azure brand.

YARP is a huge step up. If they'd followed their typical approach, this would be either "Reverse Proxy" or "Azure RequestFlows"

Yet I personally prefer both "Reverse Proxy" and "Azure RequestFlows" to YARP.

I guess it's personal taste.

Until you work with multiple platforms and you're trying to figure out if we're talking about Microsoft's reverse proxy, or and F5 somewhere, or maybe that Nginx.
