Overview
Who should take this course?
This course is designed for Anypoint Platform administrators, including operations personnel, developers, and architects, who are responsible for managing and monitoring applications deployed to CloudHub. Students should be familiar with system administration and server commands, have a basic understanding of data formats, such as XML, CSV, and JSON, and possess foundational knowledge of common integration technologies, including HTTP, JMS, JDBC, REST, and SOAP.
This course exclusively covers CloudHub, the previous version of MuleSoft’s integration platform as a service. If you are interested in learning about CloudHub 2.0, we highly recommend Anypoint Platform Operations: CloudHub 2.0 (OPS325).
Note: Students using their own computer are expected to follow the steps outlined in this Computer Setup Guide.
When you complete this course, you will be able to:
- Manage the full lifecycle of Mule applications on CloudHub.
- Configure load balancing and high availability options for Mule applications on CloudHub.
- Use the Anypoint Platform REST APIs to manage Mule applications on CloudHub.
