Removal of three low-usage RIPEstat endpoints on 13 October

Dear colleagues, Over the past year, we have been migrating RIPEstat infrastructure to a new environment. As part of this process, we reviewed all components to ensure long-term maintainability. Three components with very low usage and ongoing data issues will be deprecated and removed in a month. We are announcing the immediate deprecation of the following API endpoints: * /data/speedchecker-bandwidth-measurements/… * /data/meternet-bandwidth-measurements/… * /data/generic-data (undocumented) These endpoints have not been visible in RIPEstat for a considerable period and have experienced ongoing issues with data updates. Removing these endpoints will reduce our application and systems maintenance overhead. These endpoints are deprecated with immediate effect and will be completely removed on 13 October 2025. Analysis shows very low external usage of these endpoints (fewer than 10 IP addresses in August 2025). We therefore do not expect this change to affect most users. However, we recognise that API deprecations can be disruptive, and we welcome feedback from anyone who relies on these services. We are particularly interested in hearing from users who require bandwidth measurement data, as we understand this represents a niche but potentially valuable use case. We would like to understand your specific usage patterns and requirements for this type of data. If the removal of these endpoints will impact your operations, please contact us immediately. Kind regards, Ties de Kock RIPE NCC
