Profile
Within the Content Type facet, Profile intelligence gathers BTW.MEDIA articles that share the same editorial format, helping readers compare briefings, profiles, risk notes, market analysis, and event coverage without mixing different kinds of evidence. The page explains how this content type frames internet infrastructure events, company movements, governance decisions, operational signals, and public evidence across the site. Readers can compare which actors or infrastructure systems appear most often, how source quality changes interpretation, and whether the material is a durable profile, a time-sensitive event, a strategic market signal, or a governance development. The result is a useful search page for operators, investors, customers, analysts, and policy stakeholders who need to understand the consequence, timing, and evidence behind similar article formats.

Massimo Candela and the interfaces that turn routing data into action
From BGPlay and RIPE Atlas interfaces to BGPalerter and geofeed monitoring, Massimo Candela has built tools that turn partial internet measurements into something operators can investigate. Their value depends on preserving the sources, thresholds and maintenance ownership behind…

Paolo Lucente built the junction between traffic and routing data
Paolo Lucente’s pmacct sits where packet and flow records acquire routing context. By joining traffic with BGP, BMP, RPKI and operator-defined pipelines, it can support peering and capacity decisions—provided the network preserves sampling, timing and business provenance.

Claudio Jeker: Maintaining a small, auditable BGP daemon for serious routing
Claudio Jeker has spent more than two decades keeping OpenBGPD small enough to audit and capable enough for serious routing roles. The project’s restraint reduces some software risks, but it cannot simplify BGP policy, routing-security dependencies or the consequences of a bad…

Harald Welte and the work of opening telecom’s closed interfaces
Across Linux firewalls, licence enforcement, open phones, GSM network functions and SIM tooling, Harald Welte repeatedly made closed communications systems inspectable. His record shows both the leverage of public implementations and the hardware, regulatory and maintenance…

Alkira: Building a Managed Network between Clouds and Fibre
Alkira turned multicloud routing, segmentation, and service insertion into a managed control plane that enterprises could consume from a portal or via code. Lumen’s $475 million acquisition tests whether owning the fibre can improve route assurance without making the…

CoreWeave Must Turn Financed Capacity Into Real AI Uptime
CoreWeave reports 43 data centres and over 850 MW in service, with approximately 3.1 GW under contract; Microsoft accounts for 67% of its 2025 revenue. The network beneath the GPUs must convert this financed expansion into reliable, diversified services—otherwise capital costs…

CoreWeave's network must turn funded capacity into productive AI time
CoreWeave reported 43 data centres and over 850 MW of active power, against about 3.1 GW contracted, while Microsoft contributed 67% of 2025 revenue. The network beneath the GPUs must convert that funded expansion into a reliable, diversified service before financing costs and…

UbuntuNet’s 10 Gbps Core Network Constrained by Campus Endpoints
UbuntuNet’s 2023 report says core links were upgraded from around 2.5 Gbps to 10 Gbps, and new points of presence plus peering were added. Translating this regional upgrade into research capacity, however, depends on national research networks, campus systems, commercial…

UbuntuNet’s 10 Gbit/s Core Still Depends on Campus Networks
UbuntuNet's 2023 report describes core links upgraded from about 2.5 to 10 Gbit/s, with new points of presence and peering. This regional progress only reaches researchers if national networks, campus systems, operators, and recurrent funding extend it beyond each AfricaConnect…

UbuntuNet's 10 Gbps core still depends on the campus edge
UbuntuNet's 2023 report described expanded backbone links from around 2.5 to 10 Gbps, along with new points of presence and peering. That regional advance only reaches researchers when national networks, campus systems, operators, and recurring funding can sustain it beyond each…

Nick Feamster: making networks explain themselves, and exposing the limits of measurement
In 2005, a checker he co-developed reported over 1,000 previously undetected faults in 17 autonomous systems. Since then, his effort to make hidden infrastructure explainable has extended to spam, broadband, censorship, smart homes, and machine learning, repeatedly showing that…
