"In Network Ferret, we found a Java-based discovery engine that was designed to be embedded. It fit right in with our existing architecture and was very easy to integrate."

Build or Buy?

A discovery engine is not a one-time development project. It is a constant maintenance issue because:

  • Vendors don't follow standards, can't follow standards or the standard does not exist
  • Users build unconventional networks
  • There are always new devices and new technologies being developed

Network Ferret offers a better alternative for discovery.
