“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.
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.
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.
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.
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
Observe behavior
Mugato observes communication patterns across your infrastructure continuously.
Analyze patterns
The behavioral analytics engine calculates presence, frequency and directionality.
Map dependencies
Process-level dependencies are mapped automatically. Application service boundaries identified after two weeks of behavioral observation.
Continuous update
Dependencies refresh automatically from live observed behavior. Your map stays current as your infrastructure evolves.

Frequently asked questions about dependency mapping
How does Mugato map dependencies?
From what your servers actually do. Mugato uses process mining to see which processes talk to each other, on which ports and in which direction, so a database on a nonstandard port is still recognized as a database. No documentation or interviews are needed.
How does Mugato catch connections that last only a second?
Mugato observes every server around the clock, so even brief connections are captured. After about two weeks, practically every recurring connection in your environment has been seen.
Can Mugato map dependencies through load balancers and NAT?
Yes. Mugato sees each conversation from the server side, so load balancers and NAT don't hide the true connection. It maps load-balanced pools and their members without logging into the load balancer.
Does Mugato map connections to cloud services and the internet?
Yes. Connections between your servers and the outside world are mapped in both directions, down to the specific cloud service, region and country, so unexpected destinations are easy to spot.
How does Mugato keep dependency maps readable?
Mugato filters routine infrastructure traffic, such as backup and antivirus, out of the default view, and line thickness shows how strongly two components are coupled. You see the dependencies that matter first.
