Subject: [sidr] RIPE NCC RPKI Repository issue – Sat 2 Feb

The RIPE NCC RPKI repository became inconsistent and outdated starting on Saturday, 2 Feb 2013 that lasted for several hours. This was caused by a problem in our RPKI system that degraded performance to a point where the publication for all 1300+ Member CAs combined took more than 24 hours. This meant the CRLs and manifests for some CAs expired before they republished.

The bug that caused the problem has been fixed and we are making sure the robustness and monitoring of the system is further improved. We are also taking steps to ensure that the scaling of the system keeps pace with the adoption by our members. 

In case you notice a problem with one of our services, please check our web page with known service and security announcements:
