Measurement is always a popular topic on the APNIC Blog. This year, authors measured everything from Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) prevention to Internet Service Provider (ISP) market share. Here are three of the best:

  1. A first look at the adoption of BGP-based DDoS scrubbing services: A five-year longitudinal analysis — Shyam Krishna Khadka sheds light on the adoption of the top five global Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) based DDoS scrubbers — revealing who’s protected, how adoption has grown, and what it means for Internet resilience.
  2. Measuring the OneWeb satellite network — Jinwei Zhao conducted a comprehensive analysis of the OneWeb network, using both the ‘inside-out’ measurements from controlled user terminals (UTs) in North America and ‘outside-in’ measurements targeting publicly accessible OneWeb UTs on the Internet.
  3. Estimating the sweet spot of packets for classifying network flows at scale  — Network flow classification enables network operations tasks ranging from attack detection and usage accounting to application user experience measurement and optimization. With FastFLow, Minzhao Lyu enabled Machine Learning (ML) classifiers to use minimal packets for accurate flow classification.
