This looks like fun! (a few questions for the RIPE folk, I think though below)
What is the expected load of streaming clients on the RIPE service? (I wonder because I was/am messing about with something similar, though less node and js... not that that's relevant here). I hadn't seen the ripe folk pipe up anywhere with what their SLO/etc is for the ris-live service? (except their quip about: "used to run in a tmux session I had to occassioanlly ssh into <foo> and restart when <foo> rebooted" I believe the end of that quip in Iceland was: "and now its' running as a real service") Also, one of the strengths to the 'monitoring as a service' folks is their number of collection points and breadth of ASN to which they interconnect those points/ RISLive, I think, reports out from ~37 or so RIPE probes, how do we (the internet) get more deployed (or better interconnection to the current sets)? and maybe even more imoprtantly... what's the right spread/location/interconnectivity map for these probes? thanks! for showing what's possible with tooling being developed by like minded individuals :) -chris On Thu, Aug 15, 2019 at 11:11 AM Job Snijders <j...@ntt.net> wrote: > > Hi Ryan, Alarig, > > > On 14/08/2019 19:06, Ryan Hamel wrote: > > > I appreciate the effort and the intent behind this project, but why > > > should the community contribute to an open source project on GitHub > > > that is mainly powered by a closed source binary? > > > On Wed, Aug 14, 2019 at 07:13:47PM +0200, Alarig Le Lay wrote: > > You can build it yourself, see > > https://github.com/nttgin/BGPalerter#more-information-for-developers > > > > I think that the binaries are here for thoses that don’t want to install > > all the build-chain. > > Indeed, the binary files in the github repository in the 'bin/' > directory are merely provided as a convenience service so interested > people don't need to compile the software themselves in order to run > tests.
