Mutiny Deployment Options

Flexible. Software-Led. Appliance-Optional.

Mutiny is a modern network and infrastructure monitoring platform that can be deployed in multiple ways to suit your environment, policies, and scale — not just as a physical appliance.

While we continue to offer dedicated Mutiny appliances for customers who prefer a turnkey solution, most customers now choose to deploy Mutiny as software on infrastructure they already own.


How Can I Deploy Mutiny?

Mutiny can be deployed in any of the following ways:

1. Virtual Appliance (Most Common)

Deploy Mutiny as a virtual machine on your existing hypervisor platform:

  • VMware

  • Hyper-V

  • Proxmox

  • Other KVM-based platforms

This option provides the fastest deployment with full performance and flexibility.


2. Software Install (Bare Metal or VM)

Install Mutiny directly onto:

  • Your own physical server

  • A private virtual machine

  • A cloud VM

This is ideal for customers with standardised server builds or specific OS requirements.


3. Cloud Deployment

Run Mutiny in:

  • Private cloud

  • Public cloud (AWS, Azure, etc.)

  • Hosted data centres

Perfect for MSPs, multi-site organisations, or centralised monitoring models.


4. Dedicated Mutiny Appliance (Optional)

For customers who want a fully managed, ready-to-run solution, Mutiny is also available as a dedicated hardware appliance.

This option removes all infrastructure decisions — simply rack, power, assign an IP address, and start monitoring.


What Do All Deployments Have in Common?

Regardless of how Mutiny is deployed, every system provides:

  • Full Mutiny monitoring functionality

  • Identical user interface and features

  • Same licensing model

  • Same update and support process

  • No feature restrictions based on deployment type

You choose where Mutiny runs — not what it can do.


Dedicated Mutiny Appliance (Turnkey Option)

For customers who prefer a physical appliance, Mutiny supplies a range of high-performance, enterprise-grade monitoring servers.

Appliance features:

  • Pre-installed and fully configured Mutiny system

  • Simple console and web-based setup

  • Just assign an IP address, add a Node Licence, and begin discovery

  • Ideal for secure or isolated environments

Typical specifications:

  • Intel 3.4GHz processor

  • 16GB–64GB RAM options

  • 1TB SSD (suitable for years of monitoring data)

  • Dual 1Gb Ethernet interfaces

  • Optional redundant power supplies

Not Sure Which Option Is Right?

Most customers now deploy Mutiny on existing virtual or cloud infrastructure — but we’re happy to help you choose the right model based on:

  • Network size

  • Data retention requirements

  • Performance expectations

  • Security or compliance constraints
