PeeringDB is looking at participating at an upcoming NANOG Hackathon. One of the ideas for a theme is to improve the API. Specifically by adding API calls for common use cases that people need to handle outside of the API. Typically, by dumping the entire database to SQL For example - given two IXes, which networks are present at both? We'd like to make a list of such useful queries such that people don't have to dump the database just to run them. A stretch goal would be to expose into the website instead of requiring API calls.

This issue has some more detail, including a few existing ideas: https://github.com/peeringdb/peeringdb/issues/1020

Comments there or in email to me would be super helpful. As always, if there are other feature requests for PeeringDB, feel free to create an issue in github ( https://github.com/peeringdb/peeringdb/issues/new/choose ) or in email, even if they're not strictly Hackathon ideas. They are always appreciated!

Thanks!
