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. AI and Structured Telemetry YANG-based […]
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 patterns, and traffic evolution. The […]
Standardized Measurement as the Foundation for AI in Networking
Artificial Intelligence in networking does not begin with neural networks or automation dashboards. It begins with measurement. Within the framework of the Internet Engineering Task Force and the Internet Research Task Force, the first principle is clear: before intelligence, there must be consistency. The IETF does not standardize AI models. Instead, it defines interoperable metrics, […]

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 […]
Solution report blog — geosthira

Static IP geolocation databases are becoming the dial-up modems of the modern web: outdated, inflexible, and often wrong.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 […]
