#11669 is close, can I develop this feature

longwuyuan commented

It will be nice to have it. But we don't want to maintain & support new features. The problem is there are no resources to support/maintain new features. And also many of the features that are super useful are leading to security/stability issues, if they are not part of the core Ingress-API spec.

@tanoggy I saw just now that the free datatype for ipinfo.io has at least this much

Free
{
  "ip": "211.197.11.0",
  "city": "Kyosai",
  "region": "Gyeongsangnam-do",
  "country": "KR",
  "loc": "34.8503,128.5886",
  "org": "AS4766 Korea Telecom",
  "postal": "53285",
  "timezone": "Asia/Seoul",
  "tags": []
}

You can join the community meetings and ask if there is interest in a PR for this https://github.com/kubernetes/community/tree/master/sig-network

Thanks @tanoggy I work for IPinfo, and I really appreciate the feature request!

For context, our free IP database comes in various formats, with the IP to Country ASN database being one of the most popular. It includes features such as:

  • It includes country and ASN information in the same database.
  • It is updated daily, with zero compromise to accuracy. There is no range clustering, and the database provides full accuracy.
  • The data granularity reaches individual IP level.
  • The database comes in MMDB database format.
  • It is licensed under CC-BY-SA 4.0, permitting commercial usage.
  • Available file formats include: CSV, MMDB, JSON
  • The data is tabular and unnested, making it very easy to use. The dataset includes both IPv4 and IPv6 in a single file.

Database schema
