What is Runtime Fabric?

Runtime Fabric is a container service that’s built on top of Kubernetes by MuleSoft to run and manage MuleSoft applications on the cloud (Azure/AWS/Google) and in on-premises data centers. Runtime Fabric can be set up on bare-metal servers/VMs, self-managed Kubernetes (such as Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), or Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE)), and Red Hat OpenShift.

When we set up Runtime Fabric on self-managed Kubernetes, bare-metal servers/VMs, or Red Hat OpenShift, there is a difference in the customer’s and MuleSoft’s responsibilities for managing Runtime Fabric. In the following sections, we will understand which responsibilities belong to MuleSoft and which belong to the customer when Runtime Fabric is set up in any of the instances mentioned previously.
