What is up with PCH?
by Malte Tashiro 29 Jan '26

29 Jan '26

Hello there, does anyone by chance know what's up with PCH data? https://www.pch.net/resources/Routing_Data/ The page for the daily routing snapshots became unresponsive sometime in November last year and has been consistently serving error 503 recently. I've opened a ticket back then but got no response, so maybe somebody here knows the reason. Best, Malte

RPKIViews 2021-2025 Amalgamations: a near-complete capture of the entire RPKI

This might interest some of you: a (nearly?) complete capture of the raw RPKI data of the last 5 years. Kind regards, Job ----- Forwarded message from Job Snijders <job(a)bsd.nl> ----- Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 10:43:37 +0000 From: Job Snijders <job(a)bsd.nl> To: sidrops(a)ietf.org Subject: RPKIViews 2021-2025 Amalgamations: a near-complete capture of the entire RPKI Dear all, The RPKI is an infrastructure which helps secure the global Internet routing system. The RPKI is a distributed database. RPKIViews.org is a global multi-perspective data collection initiative. I've normalized, deduplicated, merged, sorted, and recompressed tens of terabytes of RPKI data, resulting in handy datasets named the "RPKIViews Amalgamations". These compact datasets together contain basically every ROA, ASPA, CRL, Manifest, and Certificate that were issued in the last 5 years. RPKIViews 2021 Amalgamation, 46,507,392 RPKI objects doi: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18082494 compressed: 33.8 gigabytes (uncompressed: 78.1 gigabytes). RPKIViews 2022 Amalgamation, 51,850,445 RPKI objects doi: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18327144 compressed: 41.7 gigabytes (uncompressed: 110.2 gigabytes). RPKIViews 2023 Amalgamation, 57,286,485 RPKI objects doi: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18327429 compressed: 48.7 gigabytes (uncompressed: 111.8 gigabytes). RPKIViews 2024 Amalgamation, 56,586,149 RPKI objects doi: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18328474 compressed: 51.4 gigabytes (uncompressed: 115.5 gigabytes). RPKIViews 2025 Amalgamation, 61,524,413 RPKI objects doi: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18332099 compressed: 58.4 gigabytes (uncompressed: 145.0 gigabytes) The DER-encoded objects originally were fetched from publication servers which were discovered using the Trust Anchor Locators of the following Regional Internet Registries: AfriNIC, APNIC, ARIN, LACNIC, and RIPE NCC. Not all objects contained within this dataset comply with the requirements of modern day RPKI relying party implementations. The following file naming scheme is used for the tar archive members: every filename is the URL-safe Base64-encoded SHA-256 message digest of the object's ASN.1 encoded content. For performance reasons, the directory hierarchy is constructed using the last few bytes of the filename. The file's recorded last-modification timestamp is constructed following the procedure outlined in RFC 9589. The tar achive adheres to the IEEE Std 100.2 POSIX.2 "USTAR" interchange format and is compressed in "--long -19" Zstandard (RFC 8878) form. Individual objects can be inspected as JSON with "rpki-client -jf ./path/to/object" (filemode). Happy hacking & sleuthing! :-) Kind regards, Job ----- End forwarded message -----
