Solutions Overview


Mu Dynamics proactively eliminates the high cost of service, application and network downtime.  Mu’s solution automates a systematic and repeatable process that identifies hard-to-detect sources of potential downtime within IP services, applications, and underlying networks.  The award-winning Mu solution is deployed at more than 100 locations, primarily at leading global service providers, cable operators and network product vendors

Mu helps network operators and their vendors eliminate downtime and reduce customer churn through proactive service assurance.  Operators leverage Mu’s automation throughout their respective product and service deployment lifecycles.  Product vendor suppliers to network operators also depend on Mu to build higher quality products throughout their software development lifecycle (SDLC).

Two Major Perspectives:
Network Operators: Improve Reliability, Availability and Security
Product Vendors: Enhance Product Quality

The Mu Advantages:

Network Operators: Improve Reliability, Availability and Security

Network operators, including service providers, cable operators, critical infrastructure operators and government agencies, are constantly striving to reduce system downtime. Network operators want to implement complex IP infrastructures resilient enough to sustain high quality of experience (QoE) for VoIP, IPTV and even IMS architectures.  However, the increasing complexity of NGN applications and operator networks transition from proprietary to IP infrastructure.  The increased complexity of the applications, services and infrastructure rapidly outpaces existing resources' ability to sufficiently ensure highest quality reliability, availability and security throughout the end-end network.

Leading network operators use Mu’s solution to achieve these goals by automating the service assurance process of locating application weaknesses before they result in service quality issues that cause significant reduce revenue loss and customer churn.  Mu’s solution takes a distinct approach of proactively assessing application issues including buffer overflows, resource exhaustion, Denial of Service (DoS) exposures, CPU spikes, etc.  Mu helps maximize network uptime, and minimize service disruptions.

Product Vendors: Enhance Product Quality 

Product Vendors, including NGN network product vendors, strive to ensure their applications and products meet or exceed the quality levels required to ensure their network operator customers do not suffer unexpected application disruptions and downtime.  NSP Partners and NIST both noted that IT product vendor development teams are increasingly overloaded with the growing product complexity.  NIST research notes that proactively finding and fixing bugs is critical for vendors of IT products, because the sooner bugs are discovered in the product-development cycle, the less costly they are to fix.  The report and interactive TCO/ROI calculator detail a 10x savings metric through hands-on use of Mu. 

Product vendors now use Mu’s solution to extend their ability to increase the quality of their complex products without slowing down the product development process.  Mu’s solution methodically identifies and fixes bugs early in the development life cycle, and provides vendors with an automation framework for easy integration into existing processes.  The result is much fewer field fire drills and product delays caused by quality issues.  Vendors achieve significantly higher test coverage and a much reduced cost of product maintenance and support.  Furthermore, Mu enables vendors to show quality commitment to their customers via a repeatable process and tangible metrics.
