Understanding vCore CPU utilization in MuleSoft CloudHub

Image
MuleSoft CloudHub platform offers multiple worker sizes to deploy APIs. The worker sizes range from slice of a vCore to full sized vCores. It is often sufficient to deploy APIs to slice of a vCore like 0.1 or 0.2 rather than to a one full vCore, unless the API is CPU intensive or the deployed application consists of many complex APIs packaged as a bundle. Most of us know that MuleSoft workers are AWS EC2 instances behind the scenes, but what we may not know is how CPU is utilized in a slice of vCore and what could be the possible implications of using a slice of vCore. The below table shows the various worker sizes and their corresponding EC2 instance types. Burstable Performance Instances: Instances providing slicing of vCores are called burstable performance instances. In these instances, full CPU utilization is achieved when an instance reaches baseline utilization percentage defined for the instance type. What happens when an instance hits baseline utilization percentage? Burstable...
