RESEARCH TO DRIVE SCION FORWARD
TWO WAYS TO DIVE INTO SCION
#1: EXPLORING WITH SCIERA
SCION is being deployed with local and global ISPs to allow access to a wide base of end users. The production network by Anapaya sees use in research, healthcare, military applications, and the financial sector — with one of the biggest deployments being the Swiss Secure Finance network, connecting all banks clearing Swiss francs.
The SCION Education Research and Academic (SCIERA) network connects universities and National Research and Education Networks (NRENs), providing native SCION connectivity to students and researchers in an overlay-free, BGP-free network spanning North-America, South-America, Europe, Africa, and Asia.
SCIERA is part of the production network.
#2: TESTING ON SCIONLAB
SCIONLab is a global (overlay) research network to test the SCION next-generation Internet architecture.
SCIONLab works on top of the current (IP+BGP) Internet, which means that you can join the SCIONLab network even if your ISP does not yet offer a native SCION connection.
In the SCIONLab network, you can run your own autonomous system (AS), which will actively participate in routing in the SCIONLab network and enable experiments.
Join the Conversation
Be part of the growing SCION research community. Participate in our weekly research meetings hosted by ETH Zurich and Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg. Share insights, discuss current breakthroughs, and explore exciting future directions in SCION-related topics. Your ideas could shape the future of internet technology.
The meetings take place every week and usually last around 30 minutes. To accommodate participation of SCION researchers from all around the world, the meeting time alternates every other week.
Even weeks: Tuesday 9am CET, 3pm CST, 4pm KST / JST, (12am PT), Odd weeks: Wednesday 5pm CET, 8am PT, 11am ET, 12pm BRT, (11pm CST, 12am KST / JST)
