I love the API and response times! I had a few questions: Might you open-source this in the future? Were you already comfortable in Rust or is there a reason you selected Rust for this project i.e performance and so plans to offer this as commercial product? How often are RIPE info and MaxMind data updated these days or is that the 8 hours? Thanks for sharing! |

I don't think there's a strong reason to keep it closed-source.

This was a big learning opportunity for me to learn Rust. I had done two small projects in Rust before this one.

The MRT dumps where it gets its BGP data are updated every 8 hours, and MaxMind appears to be updated twice a week.
