Archived Plans
You can find our plans from previous quarters, along with requests from the community, on this page. We are updating this page at the end of each quarter.
Q1 2023 Plans and Community Input
| Plans | ||
|---|---|---|
| Item | Activity | Description |
| 1 | Improvements to RIS data through peering coordination |
Work continues from Q2 2022. We aim to add at least one peer per country in our service region that is not yet covered in RIS. |
| 2 | “Public kafka” solution in production |
The work item has been placed on hold due to shifting priorities. Following the feedback received from the external testers, we will proceed to define a process to get access to kafka directly. Access will be limited to certain organisations that meet specific criteria. |
| 3 | Further improvement to RIS metrics |
The work item has been placed on hold due to shifting priorities. Following the publication of the RIS metrics on our website, we are planning on making further improvements to them. |
| 4 | Improved timeliness of RIS dump files |
We plan to replace the pipeline that generates MRT dump files publicly available from the RIPE NCC. The new pipeline will have significantly less delay and some changes to the structure of the MRT file format. |

Q4 2022 Plans and Community Input
| Plans | ||
|---|---|---|
| Item | Activity | Description |
| 1 | Processing jobs migration |
The work item has been placed on hold due to shifting priorities. Migration of processing jobs for RIS to newer clusters. |
| 2 | Improvements to RIS data through peering coordination |
Work started in Q2 2022. We aim to add at least one peer per country in our service region that is not yet covered in RIS. |
| 3 | Announce new prototypes |
Work was completed in Q4 2022. We developed the following new prototypes and are collecting feedback on their usefulness:
|
| 4 | Test public kafka protype |
Work was completed in Q4 2022. We will test with a few volunteers from the community if providing kafka as an additional data access model will benefit them. |
| 5 | Performance metrics |
Work was completed in Q4 2022. We aim to publish RIS performance metrics on our website. We expect this activity to finish by the end of Q4 2022. |
| 6 | RIS Live performance improvements |
Work was completed in Q4 2022. We are making architecture changes to RIS Live, which will allow for a more predictable latency. Further improvements will follow from using new kafka topics. |

| Reference | Input | RIPE NCC Reaction |
| RS-2022-#01 | Users asked us to publish RIS performance metrics on our website. |
We agreed with the feedback and started working on this request (see item 5 above). We published an article on RIPE Labs to explain the changes, and the metrics can be found on our website. We first recorded this request in Q3 2022. |
