RIPEstat Quarterly Planning

We have three objectives in publishing our quarterly planning:

  1. We want to be transparent about the work we are doing
  2. We want your input on that work and our planning, and we want to document that input and let you know if and when we can add your suggestions to our planning
  3. We want an open dialogue with members and community on developments around RIPEstat

We launched this initiative in Q2 2022, and we are open to improving what we publish here and how we do that. So let us know if there are ways we can better present our plans.

If you have any suggestions on how we can improve RIPEstat, you can share them through the RIPEstat Feature Tracker.

We will update this page as our activities progress and continue to share updates on RIPE Labs, on the RIPE NCC Membership Discussion and MAT Working Group (WG) mailing lists, and at RIPE Meetings and other events.

Q1 2025 Plans

Last updated: 16 December 2024

Item 1: New RIPEstat product strategy

We have initiated a review of the RIPEstat product vision and strategy. This has led to significant roadmap changes. Over the next months, we will share more details with the community and ask for input.

Status: In progress

Item 2: UX/UI improvements

Based on feedback we collected in 2023 and further user interviews conducted in 2024, we decided to introduce a new user interface that combines elements of the 2013 and 2020 UI. We published these plans in October. We plan to release the first step of this new user interface in Q1 2025.

Status: In progress

Item 3: Operating system upgrades

We are making infrastructural changes, starting with the upgrade of our virtual machines to a new operating system.

Status: In progress

Item 4: Data quality improvements

We previously announced that we were monitoring data recency. This work has evolved into a project to monitor API call latency and error rates. We expect to start gathering these details after an infrastructure change in early 2025.

Status: In progress

Community Input on Planning

We want the community to contribute to our plans and suggest additional work items. Please share your comments with us on the RIPE NCC Membership Discussion and MAT WG mailing lists. We'll also monitor all the other channels where people talk about these services.

Archived Quarterly Plans

You can find our plans from the previous quarters on this page. The Q1 2025 plans will be archived once we publish the Q2 2025 planning.
