MuleSoft Announces Hyperforce Launch in Australia
We are pleased to announce that MuleSoft is generally available on Hyperforce in Australia. For organizations in regulated industries such as financial services, healthcare and public sector, this means co-located control and runtime planes, both running within Australia, so data never leaves the region to be processed or governed.Â
Hyperforce is Salesforce’s public cloud infrastructure platform designed for organizations that require strict data residency and compliance controls. It delivers a dedicated, isolated infrastructure with centralized governance in your region.
This is most relevant if you are in one of the following situations
- You are operating in a regulated industry operating in Australia and need to demonstrate that integration data doesn’t leave Australian jurisdiction
- You are a government agency subject to the Australian Government’s Protective Security Policy Framework or ISM requirements
- You have not been able to fully adopt MuleSoft or limited its use to specific workloads because previously it couldn’t satisfy your data sovereignty requirements
Regulated organizations face unprecedented pressure including
- Stricter data residency laws — Government mandates are evolving faster than infrastructure can adapt
- Audit complexity — Multi-region deployments create audit nightmares
- AI governance uncertainty — Building AI agents in shared cloud raises compliance questions
Benefits of MuleSoft on Hyperforce AustraliaÂ
Data Residency
- Localized data storage: Hyperforce allows customers worldwide to choose specific data storage locations, aiding compliance with regional, industry-specific, and company-specific regulations.
- MuleSoft on Hyperforce is the co-location of both the control plane and runtime plane in Australia.
- By having Salesforce and MuleSoft applications and other integrated applications in close proximity, customers benefit from a unified, compliant integration environment compared to scenarios where control and runtime planes are geographically dispersed.
Enhanced Security
- Enhanced security: Hyperforce’s security architecture allows users to have appropriate access levels to customer data, safeguarding sensitive information from human error or misconfiguration. Standard encryption, both at rest and in transit, enables data privacy and security.
- Privacy: Hyperforce provides transparency and control over data, ensuring that organizations can manage their data privacy effectively.
- Enforced image signature verifications: Ensures all images on Hyperforce are verified for authenticity
- Enhanced encryption: More intricate and widespread encryption mechanisms
- HSM-based vault: For secure management of secrets, encryption keys, and certificates
- Strict network security: Individualized AWS accounts and owned VPCs with stringent access controls between VPCs
- Virtualized infrastructure and privileged access: Hyperforce’s infrastructure is fully virtualized, offering a flexible and scalable environment. For individuals requiring privileged access to the infrastructure, a request must be submitted and approved, ensuring an audit trail. Access is granted for a limited time, typically a few hours, and requires two sets of credentials with two-factor authentication, including a physical hardware token.
- Scalable performance for B2B and B2C: With the flexibility of the public cloud, customers can easily access the necessary compute capacity, enhancing both flexibility and efficiency. Hyperforce enables rapid deployment of resources in the public cloud, helping cut down implementation time from months to just weeks or even days.
- Agility: Drive velocity with reduced maintenance impacts and faster dev/test environments and enormous new interoperability.
Hyperforce provides MuleSoft users with enhanced security features and controls that go beyond those available in the existing commercial cloud. These include:
MuleSoft on Hyperforce Australia and the Agentic Enterprise
With MuleSoft now available on Hyperforce in Australia, the value for Australian enterprises extends far beyond a compliant integration platform: it’s the opportunity of a trusted foundation to build and scale AI agents locally. As Salesforce expands its Hyperforce footprint in Australia, capabilities including Agent Fabric — MuleSoft’s trusted agent control plane that connects, orchestrates, and governs AI agents across your multi-vendor enterprise — Omni Gateway for unified governance and visibility across APIs, MCPs, agents, and LLMs, and MuleSoft Vibes for natural language-driven integration development, are available for the Australia region. For organisations in regulated industries and the public sector, this means that as they build agentic workflows, the governance, auditability, and data residency that compliance demands will extend to their AI operations — not just their integrations.
Compliance & Certifications
MuleSoft on Hyperforce Australia has completed all baseline compliance audits — including SOC, PCI, and ISO — as well as the IRAP assessment, making it the right choice for Australian government agencies and regulated enterprises that require IRAP-assessed cloud services. Certification and assessment reports will be published following GA; results will not be shared independently of those reports.
In short: MuleSoft on Hyperforce is the compliant, locally hosted backbone for Australia’s agentic future.
