What happens to the Internet during a critical subsea cable outage❓

In this Baltic cable outage case, RIPE Atlas measurements helped show how traffic was rerouted, revealing changes in latency and network paths between anchors. ⚓

This is why measurement infrastructure matters. Subsea cables carry the connections that keep countries and communities online. When disruptions happen, RIPE Atlas Anchors help make those routing changes visible, so we can strengthen Internet resilience.

Does your country have enough RIPE Atlas Anchors to make Internet disruptions visible?

Host a RIPE Atlas Anchor and help improve Internet measurement and resilience in your region.

What happens behind the scenes on the Internet when millions of fans tune in at the same time❓⚽

When the is on, the action is not only on the pitch.

Every stream, score refresh and last-minute ticket rush creates real pressure on the Internet infrastructure working quietly in the background.

In this RIPE Labs article, Flavio Luciani explores how big online moments can become physical events.
