We're using MuleSoft Anypoint Platform to integrate our CRM software Salesforce with various other Banking and Insurance functionalities. The integrations are invoked as APIs majority as REST webservices and for a small number of functions as SOAP Webservice. Many of these services are also opened for external use by proper authentications in place.

MuleSoft Anypoint Platform's primary function is to offer our business a turnkey Cloud hosting solution for all RESTful APIs. There, we have complete command and visibility over all of our infrastructure and application infrastructure. In addition, the Anypoint Platform gives us a place to work on designing our APIs in the RAML language and creating mock services to use in testing, which helps us get things out the door faster. As a company, we specialize in integrating disparate systems by exchanging data using RESTful APIs.

A great alternative to Dell Boomi or other middleware products. I still think the user interface is evolving but it can be of significant use towards becoming an API-first company. Mulesoft Anypoint is a competitive solution for developing and deploying API for the organization. It is well documented, and easy to deploy and run.

The main use of MuleSoft Anypoint Platform is to provide to our company the entire Cloud solution to host all RESTful APIs. There we can manage and monitor all our systems, having control and support for our applications.
Also, Anypoint Platform provides us a development environment to design our APIs on RAML language and also mock services to speed up the development and delivery. Our main business is system integration using RESTful APIs to exchange data between the systems.

We use the MuleSoft Anypoint platform primarily in our IT department to build API solutions that interface with our vendors and partners. The platform itself houses our REST APIs which make requests and receive responses between our systems of record and our third-party processors that house our core application logic.

We have multiple clients who use Anypoint Platform with various levels of entitlements; from simple Runtime Manager to API Manager and Anypoint Monitoring. Each client we have implemented this with has had a successful experience and it has helped integrate disparate systems immensely. With Anypoint Platform, clients can create reusable and discoverable assets while connecting just about any application in their existing software ecosystem.

Anypoint Platform is the next-gen tool that markets micro-service framework and is our go-to platform. It's being used across the Integration Team to move the existing integrations to Mule. The idea of micro-service which doesn't hamper the other services running is the major win for Anypoint.

We use Anypoint Platform to design Mulesoft based integration which works like backend for API implementation. This integration varies from Salesforce based integrations, Workday based integrations, and applications that need large scale data transformation capabilities. Anypoint platform has various tools like Anypoint flow designer which our business users use to build integrations.

I'm using Anypoint Platform for one of our US-based clients. The client was looking for a solution to integrate different systems of stock market business. They wanted the solution in microservice or API fashion and Anypoint Platform is a leader in API led connectivity. The Anypoint platform provide rich set of functionality like API manager, deployment strategies, and API policies. A user can create API using RAML specification in the design center and implement those APIs in the flow designer. The deployment of applications is fast and multi worker based. As per the client requirements, we have created multiple microservice/APIs using RAML and published those in Anypoint exchange.

Anypoint platform 6.4 is majorly used across my organization, as majority of projects running are on mule 3, Though we are having a few projects on mule 4, where we are using Anypoint studio 7.3. Mostly we are using Anypoint Studio in conjunction with Anypoint platform to leverage Mulesoft's API capabilities and leverage its API first approach of development.

This platform is being used in an Energy multinational company as an innovative cloud based Enterprise Service Bus for orchestrating internal and external integration flows needed to enrich company business information. The customer chose to buy enterprise licenses to be able to use advanced features offered by Mulesoft such as Salesforce connector and dataweave mapping tools.

I have implemented the Anypoint API Manager for our 3 clients. For us, Anypoint API Manager is the main and only point of entry to access our Web APIs hosted in a hybrid environment (on CloudHub and on-premise). We are managing our API access policies from the API Manager. It's really very easy to control the access of API through API manager. One can easily enable or disable policies without much effort and with zero downtime cost. Below are few policies which we majorly implement for our clients-
1. Rate Limiting
2. Basic Authentication with LDAP
3. SLA Based Rate limiting
4. IP whitelist/blacklisting etc.

There are many other cool features provided by Mulesoft API manager but above ones are commonly used. OAuth 2.0 Token authorization is also very easy to implement with API Manager.

Anypoint Cloudhub Platform is used as the integration backbone in corporate IT and is mandated to be the integration layer that will see itself eventually being adopted across the organization. Standard integration uses cases - application and data integration.

Hi! I'm Keiven, an experienced developer of MuleSoft technology. We use MuleSoft Anypoint Platform to develop microservices. We bring MuleESB as a solution for transferring monolithic applications into microservices. Currently, I am working in a telecommunication industry and I would say there are lots of applications developed using the conventional and traditional architecture which more likely is a tight coupling system.

As we bring MuleSoft Anypoint Platform, we are able to create a loosely-coupled architecture which is able to remove dependencies in other applications and it helps our applications to deliver on time. Unlike other conventional developments of Application Programming Interface (API) via JaxRS and JaxWS which requires you more experienced resources and programming language dependent, development of API using Mule is much better in terms of flexibility and scalability. One thing I like with Mule is you can develop an API even you are not fluent in any programming languages.

We helped several customers implement Mulesoft for integrating their various systems. We have used it mainly to integrate Salesforce with various other systems including homegrown systems using SOAP and Rest web services.

MuleSoft Anypoint Platform is being used as an ESB (integration bus). It allows us to transport data from one application to other. It also allows us to transform data to canonical format and to perform synchronous and asynchronous data exchanges.

EAIESB is Middleware Services/Solutions provider. We provide migration approaches and options from older technologies to the MuleSoft Anypoint Platform. It is lightweight and supports on-premises and cloud deployment (cloud-hub). We recommend it to customers that have on-premises or cloud connectivity. We have also implemented custom connectors to support BPM capabilities, error handling capability and other synchronous read capabilities on top of Mule.

MuleSoft Anypoint Platform can be used for multiple purposes like designing and implementing API, developing simple applications, integrating components etc. I and my organization mainly used the tool for designing and implementing of APIs. We also created basic application flow using the tool. The tool has an easy UI for developing applications. With just a drag and drop off icons your flow of the application is ready. The application helps us to understand the flow in an efficient way.
