Significantly smaller file sizes for a number of databases

We have made changes to how we build and package our MMDB files to be more efficient, which has significantly reduced the file sizes. The size of CSV files will not change.

No data has been removed from the databases. You will continue to receive the same amount of data in a smaller package.

This is a non-breaking change.

The following databases will be released today, October 21, 2026 with a smaller file size:
