# Supported Configurations for Anypoint Platform PCE

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

To ensure platform performance, stability, and high availability, Anypoint Platform Private Cloud
Edition (Anypoint Platform PCE) supports two network configurations in Kubernetes (K8s) nodes:
4-node and 7-node.

## Anypoint Platform PCE 4.0 Architecture

The diagram illustrates MuleSoft’s planes (control plane and runtime plane) and their general
traffic flow within the Anypoint Platform PCE context:

![](/mulesoft/current/en-us/private-cloud/4.0/_images/pce4-diagram-architecture.png)

Control plane:

- A subset of Anypoint services is deployed in Kubernetes (customer’s choice - Anypoint Platform PCE
  v 4.0 supports RKE2, EKS-A, OpenShift).

- This constitutes the MuleSoft Control Plane, a web-based management and administration tool for
  the lifecycle of MuleSoft integration apps and APIs.

- Starting with Anypoint Platform PCE v4.0, use a dedicated Kubernetes control plane to separate
  cluster management components from customer workloads.

Runtime plane:

- MuleSoft offers various runtime planes

- Within Anypoint Platform PCE context, the test uses the Hybrid runtime plane to deploy and manage
  runtimes via the MuleSoft control plane.

The following recommendations and limits are based on these resources: \* A small (4-node)
environment consisting of 4 K8s worker nodes of 8 cores and 32GB RAM and 3 dedicated K8s control
plane nodes, or \* A large (7-node) environment consisting of 7 K8s worker nodes of 8 cores and 32GB
RAM and 3 dedicated K8s control plane nodes

## Mule Runtime Engine and Mule Applications
