What is the motivation behind switching? From the open source perspective, I would rather not provide a duplicate of a service we already have.

I agree with Tom's comments. I don't know of any free services that come close to matching what something like Maxmind provides.If you do have a Geo-IP service that is available via a REST API, then you could most likely use the existing `REST_GET` function instead of creating your own function. It should be noted that the performance of calling out to a REST service is likely to be less than what you would get from `GEO_GET`, but that may not be a problem for you.On Mon, Apr 1, 2019 at 12:13 PM Yerex, Tom <[email protected]> wrote:I don't know of any Geo IP that is free and provides better accuracy than geolite. There are some Geo IP sites that offer a certain number of requests for a period of time "free", which might provide better accuracy and cost less depending on your work load.
As an example: https://ipstack.com/product
You will need to write the functionality as Nick Allen mentioned in his response.
