Last modified: August 21, 2023
1 Introduction
The Mendix Runtime executes the application model that is created in the Modeler. It serves pages to the Mendix Client, executes microflows, calls web services, generates documents, communicates with the database, and much more.
2 Licensing
You need a license to run an application in production mode. Without a license, the Mendix Runtime stops operating after a couple of hours. A license can be obtained through your account manager at Mendix. Afterwards, you can activate your license by following the instructions in How to Activate Your Mendix License on Microsoft Windows.
3 APIs
You can extend the functionality of the Runtime by writing Java actions. For more information, see the Mendix Runtime API.
Links to available API documentation such as WSDLs for published web services are available on the URL path /api-doc (for example: http://localhost:8080/api-doc/).
This page describes the impact and its behavior of running Mendix Runtime as a Cluster. Using the Cluster functionality you can setup your Mendix application to run behind a load balancer to enable a failover and/or high availability architecture.
