Insights

Research findings and analysis of global Internet traffic patterns.

Traffic Growth Trends

Our analysis reveals consistent growth in global Internet traffic, with regional variations in peak usage patterns. Mobile traffic continues to outpace fixed-line growth in most regions.

Key findings include seasonal variations in traffic patterns and the impact of major global events on network utilization.

Routing Dynamics

BGP routing changes show increasing complexity in inter-domain routing. We observe frequent route announcements and withdrawals, particularly during network maintenance windows.

Analysis of routing convergence times reveals opportunities for improving network resilience and reducing service disruptions.

Network Topology Evolution

The Internet's topology continues to evolve with the emergence of new transit providers and content delivery networks. Our measurements track these structural changes and their impact on routing efficiency.

Long-term trends show increasing centralization in certain regions while others maintain more distributed connectivity patterns.
