Introduction

Iris is a system to coordinate complex network measurements from multiple vantage points. Think of it as a project similar to CAIDA Ark or RIPE Atlas, with the following features:

  • Fully open-source code.
  • Handle multi-round measurements, such as diamond-miner IP tracing measurements.
  • Handle both centralized computation on a powerful server, and distributed probing on smaller agents.
  • Can tolerate the temporary loss of agents, database or control-plane components.

We offer a public instance of Iris, as well as public measurement data, on iris.dioptra.io.
