MuleSoft Apps are reusable extensions that enable you to integrate with third-party APIs, databases, and standard integration protocols. These Apps define the technical configurations required to connect to a target system. Using Mule Apps provides the following advantages:
Provides reusability, reducing code complexity. The apps can be used to connect to a target system without knowing the technical details required to execute a task in the target system.
Simplifies authenticating against the target system.
Makes code maintenance easier.
MuleSoft’s Anypoint Studio is a user-friendly IDE that can be used for designing and testing Mule operations. It is an Eclipse-based IDE. It allows developers to easily drag and use the connectors from the Mule Palette and create workflows. It accelerates the implementation of integration and API development with prebuilt modules for querying backend systems, routing events, business transformation logic, and error handling.
Anypoint studio provides the tools needed to build operations using APIs and implement workflows. These operations are reusable and can be added to your business-specific workflows as needed.
MuleSoft Apps can be used to integrate with Systems and Microservices that support the RESTFUL protocol.
For example, you can use MuleSoft Apps to connect and perform actions on systems such as LDAP, Azure, AWS, SAP, Salesforce, etc. Likewise, you can use the MuleSoft Apps to connect to any relational database engine and execute SQL queries.
The MuleSoft Apps are developed and configured by the Operations team. You may contact the Serviceaide Support team to develop and deploy the Apps in your tenant.
Luma Automation provides a few out-of-the-box Services and Operations that may be used in your Workflow. For a complete list, refer to Out-of-the-box MuleSoft Apps.
