Welcome to AIORI
Advanced Internet Operations Research in India
AIORI began as a grant-in-aid program under the Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY), with Software Technology Parks of India (STPI) serving as the executing agency, and India Internet Foundation (IIFON) and Internet Society Kolkata Chapter as the implementing agencies.
Now in its second phase, the program is supported by the National Internet Exchange of India (NiXi).
The project has delivered the AIORI measurement and development platform for Internet Operations Research, consisting of two key components. The first component, AIORI-IMN, is an Internet Measurement Network. The second component, the Anycast Test Bed, aids in researching and building distributed edge services, with a current focus on DNS deployment models. These components work together to achieve our objectives.

Measuring Rural Internet Connectivity for Real-World Impact
Reliable Internet access today forms the backbone of education, communication, and digital growth. Yet, in many rural regions, connectivity remains inconsistent and poorly understood. The challenge is not only about providing access but also about understanding how well that access performs in real-world conditions. The AIORI (Advanced Internet Operations Research
Telemetry, Automation, and AI-Driven Network Governance
As networks grow more complex, operational data becomes both abundant and structured. The Internet Engineering Task Force has developed frameworks that make this data machine-readable and interoperable. Standards such as: RFC 7950: YANG Data Modeling Language RFC 8342: Network Management Datastore Architecture define how configuration and operational state are modeled.
Research and Large-Scale Internet Analysis in the IETF Ecosystem
Measurement becomes powerful when it scales. The research dimension of AI in networking is driven largely by the Internet Research Task Force, which complements the standards work of the Internet Engineering Task Force. Within this ecosystem, the Measurement and Analysis Research Group focuses on empirical analysis of Internet infrastructure, routing
