Simply put, RED is a very old algorithm, one of the first viable AQM
algorithms. However, it proved to be so difficult to configure properly
that almost nobody uses it, even though many carrier grade routers
implement it.

Codel not only performs better than an ideally configured RED, but is far
easier to configure. This makes it much more deployable.
