Anypoint Platform Operations: Runtime Fabric

Duration: 2 Days 

Course Code: APOFH

Prerequisite:

•    A knowledge of system administration and server commands
•    A basic understanding of data formats such as XML, CSV, and JSON
•    A basic knowledge of working on Linux systems
•    A basic understanding of remote connection mechanisms such as SSL and SSH
•    (Optional, but useful) A basic understanding of containerization concepts and technologies

Course Description:

Anypoint Runtime Fabric is a container service that automates and orchestrates the deployment of Mule runtimes across Amazon Web Service (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and on-premises data centers that can be managed through a single MuleSoft-hosted control plane. Runtime Fabric is available as a package that is installable on an existing Kubernetes environment that is operated and managed by the customer, or as an appliance that includes Docker and Kubernetes.

Course Objectives:

At the end of this course, students should be able to: 

•    Describe the features, benefits, and architecture of Runtime Fabric.
•    Install and configure the Runtime Fabric appliance.
•    Deploy Mule applications to Runtime Fabric.
•    Scale Runtime Fabric deployments for performance and high availability.
•    Use Anypoint Runtime Manager and to manage, monitor, and analyze Mule applications.
•    Use OpsCenter and Anypoint Monitoring for dashboarding and monitoring.

Intended Audience:

This course is for all operations personnel, developers, and architects who want to get hands-on experience installing, configuring, managing, and monitoring customer-hosted Mule runtimes and applications using the Runtime Fabric appliance.
