Monitoring

We blocked one user for which we have no contact details after their requests to the as-overview and as-routing-consistency endpoints caused operational issues.

As a reminder for all users: When using multi-threaded programs or languages that support parallel tasks (such as Go), please limit your number of parallel requests. Additionally, please contact us if you plan to make more than 1,000 requests per day consistently, or generate significant load on our systems.

Identified

We are experiencing increased error rates and longer response times for RIPEstat (website and API). A shift in user behaviour has likely caused these issues.
