dependency mapping

Know what will break before you touch anything

Mugato maps process-level connections across your infrastructure automatically with no agents or manual documentation of dependencies. Application service boundaries are identified with 97% confidence.

“CTOs and CIOs need information immediately, not wait weeks or months. By the time they get it, it will be obsolete anyway. Mugato is the only tool I've come across that brings the full picture in one place.”

THE DEPENDENCY MAP YOUR CHANGE BOARD HAS BEEN ASKING FOR

Maps built from behavior

Mugato observes actual communication patterns over time to determine how relevant each connection truly is, not just that it exists.

See the blast radius

Every dependency is mapped at the process level. When five services run on the same host, Mugato distinguishes their individual chains.

Zero workshops required

Application service boundaries are identified automatically by behavioral clustering. Zero  interviews and zero documentation reviews.

understand relationships WITH MUGATO

Mugato observes real communication patterns to automatically map the dependencies your teams rely on with 97% confidence in application service boundary detection and no manual discovery effort required.

Trust your dependency maps enough to act on them

Every dependency is mapped at the process level, not just the server level. Mugato’s eight-state hypermodal pipeline uses behavioral pattern recognition, not dictionary lookups, to build statistically validated models from analyzing communication frequency, volume and directionality.

Process-to-process dependency chains across your infrastructure
Dependency chains mapped per application service
Undocumented and shadow dependencies surfaced automatically
Connection relevance quantified, persistent dependencies distinguished from ephemeral ones

Stop guessing where one application ends & another begins

Mugato automatically clusters related processes and servers into application services, whether off-the-shelf, custom in-house code or third-party applications. When the same infrastructure serves different business purposes, Mugato maps the technical components and their dependencies. Business context is applied during onboarding: your team assigns the names, ensuring application services reflect actual business terminology rather than inferred technical labels.

Automatic application service boundary identification
Purpose-driven service groupings
Multi-tier application topology maps
Boundaries continuously validated against observed behavior

Know which applications share your critical infrastructure

Mugato's behavioral analytics automatically identifies shared resources, servers used by multiple application services, and distinguishes them from dedicated clusters that are tightly coupled and serve a single business purpose.

Shared services identified so you see exactly which applications depend on each one
Blast radius analysis for shared resource changes
Active Directory, DNS, databases and middleware mapped
Cross-application impact assessment based on continuously updated dependency data

Spot anomalies before they become incidents

Mugato observes real communication patterns to automatically calculate "presence," a metric that reveals how relevant each connection truly is, not just that it exists. In the dependency map, line thickness reflects presence: thick lines show constant, high-frequency traffic; thin lines reveal occasional or batch connections.

Presence metric quantifies connection relevance
High-presence dependency chains distinguished from peripheral connections
Batch vs. real-time connections distinguished by frequency and volume
High-presence connection drops detected; know before users do

CHANGE WITH CONFIDENCE

Behavioral analytics maps every dependency automatically. No more interviews, spreadsheets or static diagrams that are outdated the moment they're saved.

97% confidence

Deterministic behavioral analysis delivers enterprise-grade accuracy without manual workshops or tribal knowledge.

NEAR-ZERO MANuAL EFFORT

Discovery, dependency mapping and pattern classification are fully automatic. You just name what Mugato finds.

Pattern recognition

Shared infrastructure and dedicated clusters identified automatically, so  always know whether a change affects one service or 20.

Continuous validation

Dependencies refresh continuously from observed behavior, so your view reflects how infrastructure actually operates.

Knowledge preservation

Behavioral observation captures institutional knowledge automatically. No more tribal knowledge risk.

Anomaly detection

High-presence connections that suddenly disappear are leading indicators of incidents. New ones may signal unauthorized access.

HOW IT WORKS

1

Observe behavior

Mugato observes communication patterns across your infrastructure continuously.

2

Analyze patterns

The behavioral analytics engine calculates presence, frequency  and directionality.

3

Map dependencies

Process-level dependencies are mapped automatically. Application service boundaries identified after two weeks of behavioral observation.

4

Continuous update

Dependencies refresh automatically from live observed behavior. Your map stays current as your infrastructure evolves.

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.
