The DNS TAPIR project (www.dnstapir.se) aims to create Open Source software for collecting analytics from DNS resolvers while preserving privacy, and forward data to a central core that aggregates the query statistics in near realtime and suggest actions based on this back to the edge where the resolver operates.
The software consists of two major parts:
- DNS TAPIR Edge – A service that runs close to a DNS resolver that aggregates logs and forwards data to the cloud service. Installed in service provider’s networks and similar places.
- DNS TAPIR Core – The cloud service that aggregates, analyses and annotates data, and produces different alerts. The cloud service can be divided in a federated network of instances without affecting the user’s privacy. This typically runs in an Internet provider's network.
