ETOMIC is a network traffic measurement platform with
high precision GPS-synchronized monitoring nodes. The infrastructure
is publicly available to the network research community, supporting advanced
experimental techniques by providing high precision hardware
equipments and a Central Management System. Researchers can deploy
their own active measurement codes to perform experiments on
the public Internet. Recently, the functionalities of the original system
were significantly extended and new generation measurement nodes were
deployed. The system now also includes well structured data repositories
to archive and share raw and evaluated data. These features make
ETOMIC as one of the experimental facilities that support the design,
development and validation of novel experimental techniques for the future
Internet. In this paper we focus on the improved capabilities of the
management system, the recent extensions of the node architecture and
the accompanying database solutions.
