Description

IXPs are considered core Internet infrastructure and carry a growing percentage of the world's Internet traffic. While there are a number of disparate websites and resources, which contain various data on IXPs, none are globally authoritative or fully comprehensive. This makes it difficult for network operators and other interested parties to make informed decisions related to the global Internet ecosystem. The Internet eXchange Federation (IX-F), aims to develop a system that will fill this gap. Acquiring data directly from IXPs through automation, it will aggregate and promote useful third-party data sources, provide valuable insight, reporting, data export and visualisation functionality. The aim is to work closely with the Internet technical community throughout the project and host workshops that help to promote use of the system and encourage the application of best common practices (BCPs). The presentation will provide an overview of the database and our future plans.
