What defines a Premium Connector in Anypoint?

A Premium Connector in Anypoint is specifically characterized by the requirement of an active CloudHub premium subscription. This means that access to these connectors is tied to a subscription model, emphasizing that they are part of a service that offers enhanced capabilities beyond those provided by free or community offerings. Premium Connectors often enable organizations to connect to advanced services or systems that are not available to users without the premium subscription, thus allowing for more robust integrations and functionalities.

The nature of Premium Connectors is also tied to their availability and support, which is often more comprehensive for those who are paying for the premium services, as opposed to open-source options or those that require no license. This premium model often includes not only increased access but also assurance of support and continued development from MuleSoft.
