Meet Netomics: Self-Hosted Routing Intelligence for Network Operations |
We're excited to introduce Netomics, a self-hosted routing intelligence platform built for network operators. By bringing together live BGP data, routing history, RPKI validation, IRR and WHOIS data, Netomics eliminates the need to jump between multiple tools during routing investigations. Read more how Netomics helps you gain real-time routing context, while keeping all routing intelligence inside your own infrastructure.
