Serverless runtime environments

A serverless runtime environment is an advanced serverless deployment solution that doesn't require downloading, installing, configuring, or maintaining a Secure Agent or Secure Agent group. You can use a serverless runtime environment in the same way that you use a runtime environment when you configure a connection or tasks.
A serverless runtime environment is an advanced serverless deployment solution that uses an isolated, single-tenant model, unlike the multi-tenant model on the Hosted Agent. The single-tenant model provides a dedicated server with virtual machine resources to run tasks for your organization. The serverless runtime environment auto-scales with the size of the workload while your data remains in your cloud environment.
When you use a serverless runtime environment to run mappings in advanced mode, the advanced serverless deployment fulfills the prerequisites to create an
advanced cluster
and to run jobs on the cluster. The serverless runtime environment manages the
advanced cluster
while the cluster adapts to workload changes by provisioning and de-provisioning resources. Worker nodes in the
advanced cluster
are highly available. High availability mitigates job failures and maintains job performance when a worker node crashes.
Serverless runtime environments are available in AWS and Microsoft Azure environments. A serverless runtime environment supports local regions in each geo-location. For example, an AWS cloud platform in the United States (US) supports all US regions and an AWS cloud platform in Asia-Pacific (APAC) supports all APAC regions.
You can view serverless runtime environments on the
Serverless Environments
page. To view environments, you must have at least read permissions for Secure Agent groups. For more information, see Working with Secure Agent groups.
The following image shows the
Serverless Environments
page:
The Serverless Environments page shows all serverless runtime environments.
						For each serverless runtime environment, you can view the name, description,
						type, cloud platform, status, status message, updated time, created time,
						and an Actions menu.

You can create a maximum of 10 serverless runtime environments in your organization. If you have a trial license, you can create a maximum of two environments.

Hi, Is there an API we can use related to this? If so where is the documentation ?

Informatica Documentation Team - October 14, 2024

Hi Andre,

You can use the "job" resource to start or stop a mapping task based on its ID or name. Please see the following topic:

https://docs.informatica.com/cloud-common-services/administrator/current-version/rest-api-reference/platform-rest-api-version-2-resources/jobs.html

Can we change

Users who require access to the Serverless Environments configuration page require the PRIVILEGES.VIEW_AGENT_GROUP permission.

to something like

Users who require access to the Serverless Environments configuration page require the "Read" permission on "Secure Agent Group" asset in the Administrator app.

Hi S A,

Thanks for pointing this out! We will clarify the required privileges in this topic in an upcoming release.
