About NetoFuse
About
NetoFuse is software you can run in your environment or can be hosted by Netography in the cloud to provide enriched asset context to Netography Fusion from 3rd party products. This is done by reading asset information from the external product (generally from the 3rd party product's API) and then uploading that asset information as Labels to Netography Fusion using the Netography Fusion API.
NetoFuse modules can be added as Context Integrations in the Netography Fusion Portal and run in the Netography Fusion SaaS (making API connections from Netography to the vendor API), or you can install NetoFuse as a container or Python package to deploy in your environment.
NetoFuse has a library of modules it ships with, and each module can be used in a default configuration to import a pre-defined set of asset information or individually configured to retrieve a custom set of asset information most relevant to your organization.
Explaining Context Integrations vs. NetoFuse Modules
Context Integrations are added and configured in the Netography Fusion Portal, and connect to 3rd party products from the Netography SaaS. The context integrations available in the Portal include all standard NetoFuse modules along with additional integrations that were not built on NetoFuse (pre-existing integrations and those for public clouds).
NetoFuse is software you can deploy within your own environment (on-prem or in your own cloud). This allows connectivity to 3rd party products that are not directly accessible from the Netography SaaS (e.g. products deployed on-prem). NetoFuse modules also offer additional flexibility in configuration, allowing you to customize what fields are gathered from the 3rd party products and how those fields are mapped to context labels in Fusion. It also allows you connect to 3rd party products without having to provide credentials or API keys to Netography directly, which some organizations may prefer as a security model. Finally, NetoFuse is built as an extensible system with open source code, so you can modify the existing modules, or build their own custom modules.
