Connectivity in Baltic Countries, a Research based on RIS and RIPE Atlas Alex Semenyaka, Senior Community Development Officer-Technical Advisor, RIPE NCC Recent research reveals a surprising truth: data traveling between neighboring Baltic countries often takes massive hidden detours. This invisible reliance on distant transit providers makes regional connectivity unexpectedly fragile. We will uncover the scale of these roundabouts and discuss how the local telecom community can optimise local connectivity. |

RIS - Shared Routing Intelligence Ties de Kock, RIPE NCC The Routing Information Service (RIS) collects global BGP data to provide critical visibility into how the Internet routes traffic. This presentation will explain what RIS is, why this routing intelligence is essential for network troubleshooting, and our structured procedure for selecting new RIS peers to keep this data accurate and valuable.
