Introducing yWhois: An Enhanced Tool for IP, Domain, and ASN Lookups Using RDAP

In the rapidly evolving landscape of internet data retrieval, having a reliable and efficient lookup service is essential. Recently, I revisited the yWhois project—a comprehensive tool designed for querying IP addresses, domains, and Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) via RDAP (Registration Data Access Protocol). Since its initial launch, I’ve implemented significant improvements to enhance performance and stability.

One of the key challenges I encountered was rate limiting during peak usage periods, which hampered the user experience. To address this, I integrated multiple worker servers, effectively distributing the load and ensuring smoother, uninterrupted access for users. Despite the robustness of this solution, I find it somewhat ironic that a registrar’s RDAP server imposes stringent API usage limits, especially given that RDAP was created as a modern, standardized alternative to traditional WHOIS protocols. It’s a reminder that even the most advanced systems can face practical constraints.

If you’re interested in exploring this tool or integrating it into your workflow, visit https://ywhois.com/ for more information. I hope these updates enhance your experience, and I look forward to ongoing improvements as we continue to refine the service.

Stay tuned for future developments in internet data management!
