Final Cloud Strategy Published
by Felipe Victolla Silveira 13 Sep '23

13 Sep '23

Dear colleagues, We have now published the final version of our cloud strategy, which was approved by our Executive Board at its last meeting in September. You can find this on RIPE Labs here: https://labs.ripe.net/author/felipe_victolla_silveira/ripe-ncc-cloud-strate… <https://labs.ripe.net/author/felipe_victolla_silveira/ripe-ncc-cloud-strate…> Those of you who read our earlier draft won't find any surprises in the document. Apart from making it more concise, the only change is that the use of containers is now allowed under the strict interpretation of our 'Avoid vendor lock-in' requirement (this is noted in the table). The final part is to agree on the criticality of specific services with the community. We will give you an update on this at RIPE 83. Regards Felipe Victolla Silveira Chief Operations Officer RIPE NCC

Dear Colleagues, During the RIPE NCC Services WG session at RIPE 84 in May, we discussed the Service Criticality Framework (https://ripe84.ripe.net/wp-content/uploads/presentations/101-101-Technology… and https://ripe84.ripe.net/archives/video/811). We mentioned that we would like the Working Group's input on the criticality ratings for www.ripe.net, our email service (MX), RIPE NCC Access (SSO) and the LIR Portal. We have completed the forms internally and would like to share them with you. We hope to receive your feedback by 23 December. Best regards, Theo -- Theodoros Polychniatis Asst.
