I am looking forward to take Mule ESB server along with other web servers into Microsoft Azure Cloud. But it seems Mule ESB is not supported on Microsoft Azure.
So my question is:
1) Is it true that "Mule ESB is not supported on Microsoft Azure"?
2) Is it supported on Amazon Cloud ?
3) What are the alternates if not Microsoft Azure?
Thanks !
1) Not that i'm aware of. This blog indicates its possible: http://blog.kloud.com.au/2015/02/16/mule-esb-devtest-environments-in-microsoft-azure/
2) Yes. There are many deployments of Mule ESB on EC2. In fact CLoudhub, Mule's IPaaS offering is built upon EC2.
3) There are many other platform providers that would support Mule, including Amazon EC2, Cloudhub, Openshift. Here is a list of supported Operating Systems or failing that supported Application servers for v3.6: Source(https://developer.mulesoft.com/docs/display/current/Compatibility)
