Salesforce Mule-101 Exam - Topic 3 Question 3 Discussion

Posted by Dorothea on Dec 18, 2025 at 07:02 PM

What are two reasons why a typical Mulesoft customer favors a Mulesoft-hosted Anypoint platform runtime plane over a customer-hosted runtime for its Mule application deployments?

Suggested Answer: A, D

MuleSoft-Hosted Runtime (CloudHub): This is an Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) model where MuleSoft manages the infrastructure.

Reduced IT Operations Effort (Option A): Because MuleSoft manages the physical servers, operating system updates, and patching, the customer's IT team does not need to maintain the hardware or VM infrastructure.

Reduced Time-to-Market (Option D): With a pre-configured environment ready for deployment, teams can deploy applications immediately without waiting for the provisioning of on-premises servers, load balancers, or network configurations.
