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.
