Q1 2023 Plans and Community Input
Plans | ||
---|---|---|
Item | Activity | Description |
1 | Migration to the cloud |
We are moving parts of RIPEstat to the cloud to make our infrastructure more efficient and resilient and reduce latency for our global user base. |
2 | Service quality monitoring |
We want to improve the service quality monitoring to provide a more reliable service. |
3 | Open-sourcing the RIPEstat widgets |
We will make the source code of RIPEstat widgets available for the community as part of sustainable long-term maintenance. |
4 | Improved UI testing |
We want to implement automatic UI testing to create a more reliable UI. |
5 | Review MLAB data |
Former data calls providing insights based on MLAB data have been disabled for some time. In Q4 2022, we want to review the possibility of reintegrating the data into RIPEstat’s data API and UI. |
6 | Extending RIPEstat UI for Zonemaster |
Work was completed in Q1 2023. We plan to extend the RIPEstat UI for the Zonemaster backend to allow pre-delegation checks. This work will enable us to replace the Zonemaster UI for our on-premise installation and provide a more consistent user experience. We expect this to be done in Q1 2023. |

Plans | ||
---|---|---|
Item | Activity | Description |
1 | Migration to the cloud |
Work started in Q2 2022. We are moving parts of RIPEstat to the cloud to make our infrastructure more efficient and resilient and reduce latency for our global user base. |
2 | Service quality monitoring |
Work started in Q2 2022. We want to improve the service quality monitoring to provide a more reliable service. |
3 | Data API revamp |
Work is on hold. We are revamping the Data API to make the growing number of data calls more consistent and easier to use. |
4 | Open-sourcing the RIPEstat widgets |
Work started in Q2 2022. We will make the source code of RIPEstat widgets available for the community as part of sustainable long-term maintenance. |
5 | Improved UI testing |
Work started in Q2 2022. We want to implement automatic UI testing to create a more reliable UI. |
6 | Improve the blocklist feature |
Work was completed in Q4 2022. Triggered by input from the Anti-Abuse WG, we are improving the blocklist feature on RIPEstat. We strive to add more blocklists, but we do this as part of maintenance and hence close this item on the planning. |
7 | Review MLAB data |
Work started in Q2 2022. Former data calls providing insights based on MLAB data have been disabled for some time. In Q4 2022, we want to review the possibility of reintegrating the data into RIPEstat’s data API and UI. |

Reference | Input | RIPE NCC Reaction |
RS-2022-#01 | Request to improve the blocklist feature. For more information, check the Anti-abuse WG mailing list archives. |
The work was completed (item 6). |
RS-2022-#03 | Request to visualise DNS name-to-IP changes similarly to BGPlay. |
We are currently assessing whether we will be able to accommodate this request in the future. |
Q3 2022 Plans and Community Input
Plans | ||
---|---|---|
Item | Activity | Description |
