RIPE Community Odessa Day 2026

Dear colleagues! A landmark event for the entire telecom community took place and was held at the highest level — RIPE Community Odessa Day 2026.

It was an honor to bring together so many dedicated professionals in one hall in Odesa: internet providers, system administrators, and network engineers. During the talks, we took a deep dive into the key aspects of modern infrastructure development: from strengthening BGP security and IPv6 deployment practices to architectural solutions for DWDM backbones and MPLS optimization.

We would especially like to highlight the unique atmosphere of our networking. Lively discussions of technical insights, exchange of real-world experience, and genuine live communication added extra value and benefit to the event.

We sincerely thank everyone who became part of this platform for growth, and we would like to express our deep gratitude for the support of:

• General sponsors: ISOC Ukraine Chapter, IT-KARKAS
• Partners: RIPE NCC and ITBIZ
• Supported by:
  Department of Digital Development, Information Policy and Tourism of the Odesa Regional State Administration

Thank you all for your professionalism, sharp questions, and warm reception. Together we continue to build resilient networks for Ukraine! Below you will find the photo report and video recordings of all the talks.
