Mulesoft as a cloud innovator
Overall Satisfaction with Anypoint Platform
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.
Pros
- It enables developer to write complex orchestration flows through a drag & drop dashboard.
- It enables to interact with other platform via web and/or REST services.
- It enables you to deploy application on cloud in an easy and smart way.
Cons
- In dataweave mapping you have to be sure to map fields inserting right names. There is not provided a control mechanism for verifying it
- It is not easy to structure a process hierarchy because you have to develop flows and sub flows in the same xml configuration files.
- I would like to interact with Mulesoft support directly from the design environment.
- We noticed a new way for integrating REST services interacting with mobile application (IOS/Android based).
- Our customer appreciated our work.
- Our customer appreciated having a very solid production environment while not needing to spend money to maintain it.
It enables customers to expose their APIs in a very simple and fast way. It can be used by non-expert developers. It is compliant with all major connection and data representation world standard.
