In the ever-accelerating race for internet speed, the “last mile” of performance often hides in the DNS resolution process. During the AIORI-2 Hackathon, our team from Sharda University tackled this bottleneck head-on. We didn’t just build a resolver; we engineered a Hyperfast DNS Load Balancer that leverages the parallel processing power of the AWS Cloud […]

Static IP geolocation databases are becoming the dial-up modems of the modern web: outdated, inflexible, and often wrong. During the AIORI-2 Hackathon, Team GEOSTHIRA from the Vemana Institute of Technology set out to build a smarter alternative. We developed the GEOSTHIRA IP GEOLOCATOR, a supervised machine learning system that maps IPs to cities by analyzing […]

Solution report blog — Code Crafters

While the digital locks protecting the Internet’s directory service (DNSSEC) are robust today, they are built on mathematical foundations that a future quantum computer could crumble in seconds. During the AIORI-2 Hackathon, our team—Code Crafters from GNIT, Kolkata—took a proactive leap into the future. We built a unified benchmarking framework to see how “Quantum-Resistant” algorithms […]

Solution report blog — Ping Bot

In the high-stakes world of web operations, downtime is the ultimate enemy. During the AIORI-2 Hackathon, team Ping Bot from ACE Engineering College developed a Website Health Monitor designed to move beyond simple “up/down” checks. Built on the Django framework, the system provides a deep-dive analysis of website vitality by strictly adhering to the “rules […]

Solution report blog — OrbitOps

In the competitive landscape of space-based internet, the geometry of a constellation is just as important as the rockets that launch them. During the AIORI-2 Hackathon, team OrbitOps from K.S. School of Engineering and Management (KSSEM) explored how RFC 9717—the routing architecture for satellite networks—can be used to shave milliseconds off global communication paths. By […]

Solution report blog — L8NCY

In the rapidly evolving world of cloud-native infrastructure, the choice of a Container Network Interface (CNI) is the difference between a high-performance cluster and a latent one. During the AIORI-2 Hackathon, team L8NCY from Christ University, Bengaluru, took on the challenge of benchmarking Kubernetes networking using the rigorous standards of the IETF. By implementing the […]

Solution report blog — Intelligent IP

In an era where digital borders are fluid and routing table shifts are constant, understanding exactly where an IP address resides is a cornerstone of network security and performance. During the AIORI-2 Hackathon, team Intelligent IP from Christ University developed a machine-learning-driven geolocation module that moves beyond static databases by integrating active network measurements and […]

Solution report blog — SYNOVIA

In the high-stakes environment of web operations, “knowing” a site is down isn’t enough—you have to know why and ensure the message gets through the right channel instantly. During the AIORI-2 Hackathon, team SYNOVIA from the Vemana Institute of Technology built the Website Health Monitor with Multichannel Alerts, a Django-based platform that treats RFC compliance […]

Solution report blog — Optimax

Implementing encrypted performance metrics in the Linux kernel is a high-stakes engineering feat. During the AIORI-2 Hackathon, team Optimax from Guru Nanak Institute of Technology successfully developed a working prototype for PDMv2 (draft-ietf-ippm-encrypted-pdmv2), bridging the gap between deep network diagnostics and modern privacy requirements. By moving from the plaintext metrics of PDMv1 (RFC 8250) to […]
