New Traceroute Table and Schema Now Available
To make our traceroute data in BigQuery more useful, researchers have sought an easy way to reconstruct the path of hops for the same test. This task was particularly hard because the schema, which was designed many years ago, put the hops of the same test in different rows.
To address this need from many of our partners and researchers, M-Lab is delighted to announce that the traceroute BigQuery table in the aggregate dataset is now available to the public. The new traceroute schema has one test per row, and all hops for a single test are inside the same row.
