Everyone in the industry needs access to reliable and accurate colocation and network data. PeeringDB is the most commonly used source for this information but its reliability is often constrained due to a lack of updates, and data that’s not validated. We have created a free for use and easily searchable database of colocation and network providers via large scale data aggregation and validation that attempts to solve these issues. We will discuss data validation and ingestion methodology used to improve the quality of data, as well as community based features to access, review, and flag data inaccuracies.
