Good afternoon, Reviewing hxxps://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/METRON/issues/METRON-2340 I'm attempting to sketch out a rough solution and I would like guidance from more experienced minds.
Maxmind releases code that allows you to build your own mmdb database. The tests I can see in Metron, besides the download, seem to try a few locations like Milton and London. Would it be sufficient to generate geoip databases with those (limited), test locations or alternatively generate geoip databases with hypothetical locations and then host those locations in git for the purpose of the download and testing? The documentation for the settings in Ambari for Metron GeoIP updates could then be slightly updated to add that someone needs to get their own key for GeoIP updates? Cheers, Tom.
