Mule ESB Overview

Introduction:

The world’s most widely used enterprise service bus. Mule ESB, any developer can connect applications using pre-built connectors, integration templates and drag-and-drop tooling. Mule ESB takes the pain out of integration by delivering everything needed to connect the enterprise to on-premises and cloud systems on a single, open platform.

Easy to learn, powerful to use:

Integrate with Anything, deploy anywhere

Over 120 out-of-the-box connectors to integrate any protocol or application, on-premises or in the cloud. A single integration can be deployed anywhere with the push of a button.

Drag-and-drop graphical design

With Mule Studio, any developer can be productive in minutes, easily creating integration flows and mapping data from a single graphical design environment.

Build, edit, document and debug integrations graphically (or in XML)

Ø  Graphical drag-and-drop environment shrinks on-ramp to days, not weeks
Ø  Visual debugging and auto-documentation speeds project delivery
Ø  Two-way editing between the graphical and XML views eliminates the trade-off between ease-of-use and control
Ø  One-click deployment of applications to Mule ESB or Cloud Hub™

Accelerate development with graphical data integration

Ø  Visual data mapping eliminates manual coding
Ø  Rules, lookups, and editing capabilities enable advanced transformations
Ø  DataSense™ discovers end-point meta-data dynamically
Ø  Supports XML, JSON, CSV, POJOs, Excel, and more

Use familiar tools and processes

Ø  Leverages the most popular development tools such as Eclipse, Maven and GitHub
Ø  Eclipse-based environment eliminates the need to learn new development frameworks
Ø  Integrated with Apache Maven and continuous build processes for dev/test effectiveness
Ø  Supports components of any type, "plain old Java objects" (POJO) to components from other frameworks.

Rapidly implement APIs with APIkit

Ø  Automatic generation of integration flows significantly reduces API development time
Ø  Access to MuleSoft connectors and data mapping tools accelerates connection to backend services
Ø  Pre-packaged testing console for testing API implementation before it goes live

Use the tools you know

Mule ESB leverages mainstream Java development tools like Eclipse, Maven, spring and Ant. So developing integrations take hours, not days.

Technical Specs and Capabilities

With Mule ESB, you can leverage the platforms, technologies, and development tools you already know to get up and running quickly. Mule also adapts to existing investments, making it lower cost, easier to adopt, and simpler to manage.

A secure platform

Block unauthorized access to systems, protect sensitive data from exposure, and prevent attacks through proactive threat management with Any point Enterprise Security.

Guard your system against security attacks

Ø  Restrict access based on client IP addresses with drag and drop filters
Ø  Prevent replay attacks using easily configurable message expiry policies
Ø  Apply cyclic redundancy checks (CRC) to detect message tampering

Maintain data integrity and confidentiality

Ø  Encrypt all or part of confidential message payloads
Ø  Store access credentials in an encrypted vault
Ø  Preserve data integrity with digital signatures

Protect access to APIs and SOA endpoints

Ø  Leverage proven security standards such as SAML, OAuth, and WS-Security
Ø  Use existing LDAP stores for authentication and authorization

Scalable, reliable, available

Architected for both high throughput and highly distributed environments. Mule ESB’s built-in high availability clustering and data grid ensures no messages are lost.

Meet and exceed "-ility" requirements for mission-critical enterprise applications

Organizations across industries trust Mule ESB to deliver 100% uptime, process tens of thousands of transactions per second, and support thousands of Mule servers deployed in a highly distributed environment.
Ø  Guarantee the reliability of your application
Ø  Finely tune Mule for ultra-high performance use cases
Ø  Scale up and out as business needs grow
