Hello Atlas Friends,
We just pushed a rather significant update to the Atlas UI with a bunch of new features, changes and fixes. Here are some of the highlights:
New QuickStart guide:
We have completely reworked the QuickStart guide (at the top of the Dashboard) to be more dynamic, interactive and (we hope) useful, especially for new users of Atlas.
New Users 50K credits claim:
Also for new users, we have enabled a one-time claim of 50K credits (available in the Dashboard) to help them get started creating measurements of their own and learning more about the RIPE Atlas ecosystem.
Khipu New Features:
- We have enabled a timelapse feature (for periodic measurements with less than 100 probes).
- There is a new Shared Hops toggle that sets how aggressively routes merge. Paths merges them only once they’ve joined for good on the way to the target (cleaner), whereas Topology merges every occurrence of the same hop into a single node (more accurate).
- Khipu will now also show an alert on paths that are stuck in a routing loop.
Anchor Detail live map:
Live Mesh Pings draws every other anchor in the mesh as a dot on the world map, coloured by the round-trip time of its most recent ping toward this anchor and pulsing as each new result streams in.
In addition there are several enhancements and fixes for LatencyMON, Coverage map, DomainMON and others. You can view the full list in the release notes:

As always, we welcome your feedback and would love to know what you think.
Kind regards,
Stephen
