Continuous collection

Know how your infrastructure behaves, not just what’s in it

Mugato continuously builds a living record of your infrastructure at minute granularity, every process, connection and dependency, enabling multi-dimensional analysis, before-and-after change tracking and evidence-based decision-making.

“Most tools out there are using agents. With Mugato, you don't need to do anything. Just install the collector on a server, create a user and you can start collecting information.”

Senior Network Consultant

Stop making decisions on stale information

Capture every change

Continuous collection means your infrastructure view is always current, not a snapshot from days or weeks ago.

Root cause in minutes

See what’s actually running behind every connection, not just port numbers. Find multiple services sharing the same host.

Audit-ready history

Every data point preserved at minute-level granularity, indefinitely. Compare any Tuesday to the previous Tuesday instantly.

See what changes WITH MUGATO

Mugato continuously builds a living record of your infrastructure at minute granularity, every connection, process and resource metric, enabling multi-dimensional analysis,before-and-after change tracking and evidence-based decision-making.

Know instantly when connections appear, change or disappear

Mugato captures every connection between every monitored system, including ephemeral servers that exist for only hours. New, changed and dropped connections are detected automatically,  so you never miss a change that could affect production.

Every TCP connection observed and recorded, bidirectionally where both endpoints are in scope
Connections to unknown or out-of-scope systems captured via one-end discovery
New, changed and dropped connections detected automatically
Communication intensity and directionality tracked over time

Know exactly which application owns each connection

Mugato goes beyond port-level visibility to identify the actual process behind every connection. Not just “port 443 is open” but which specific process is listening, how it relates to the broader application service and how much compute resource it consumes.

Identifies the process behind every open port
Distinguishes multiple services running on the same host
Maps process-to-process communication chains across hosts
CPU, memory, disk and network at minute-level granularity
Never aggregated, never deleted: full-fidelity resource record
Percentile breakdowns for informed capacity decisions

Answer “what changed?” in seconds, not hours

Most platforms delete or aggregate historical meta-information to save storage. Mugato preserves every data point at its original granularity, creating a temporal dataset that lets you move back and forth in time, turning hours of forensic investigation into seconds.

Full historical retention at original minute-level granularity
Compare any period to any other period instantly
Verify whether a change window resolved or introduced issues
Trace incidents to the exact minute a connection pattern changed

Continuous security intelligence, not a one-time scan

As Mugato collects, it continuously builds a security picture: which service accounts exist, where they’re used, which are shared across environments and which have passwords that haven’t been rotated. This is living meta-information, updated with every collection cycle.

Service account discovery and password hygiene
Recurring service accounts flagged, same account reused across multiple servers
Cross-environment connections visible (production-to-dev, shared credentials)
Certificate discovery and expiry tracking
External communication mapping, every connection leaving your network identified

The difference between knowing & guessing

Point-in-time discovery tools show you what existed once. Continuous collection shows you what’s happening and what changed since you last looked.

detect changes instantly

Mugato surfaces changes, such as new connections, dropped processes and shifted resource loads within minutes.

full temporal record

Every data point preserved at minute-level granularity, indefinitely. Compare last Tuesday’s infrastructure state to this Tuesday’s in seconds.

verify change windows

Did that maintenance window fix the problem? Scrub back in time to the exact minute and compare before and after states with certainty.

catch drift before it escalates

Configuration drift, unauthorized changes and gradual resource exhaustion are visible long before they trigger an incident.

never stale, never estimated

Every metric is an observed reading, not an extrapolation or aggregated average, ensuring your infrastructure view is always current.

Audit-ready history

Get the evidence trail compliance teams need, who connected to what, when and for how long, without any additional tooling.

HOW IT WORKS

1

Install collector

Deploy the Mugato Collector on a single server in your infrastructure. No libraries required.

2

Continuous collection

The collector runs 24/7, capturing every connection and process. No meta-information is ever deleted.

3

Temporal enrichment

Every data point is stored at minute-level granularity, building a complete temporal record.

4

Always-on intelligence

Your infrastructure view updates continuously. Changes are detected in near-real-time.

ONE PLATFORM, FOUR WAYS TO WORK

Stop reconciling conflicting data from disconnected tools. One live data set, accessible to every team, through every workflow. One source of truth, every time.

Mugato Platform

Interactive dependency maps surface critical relationships, risks and optimization opportunities. Find affected and root cause in clicks and quickly compare any two points in time.

Direct SQL

Connect Power BI, Excel, Tableau or Python directly to the full data set. Build custom dashboards, automate recurring analysis, and enable self-service answers to any business question.

Integrations

Enrich tools like ServiceNow CMDB, LeanIX and Ardoq with live, validated meta-information. Automatic sync eliminates manual reconciliation and keeps your systems aligned.

Natural Language

Open up infrastructure intelligence to everyone—no SQL skills required. Ask questions in plain English via Mugato's MCP server, hosted in your dedicated backend.
