Being a developer-first company means you have to be exactly where developers build great products. Which is why HERE Technologies has joined the MuleSoft Technology Partner Program and has contributed to the MuleSoft partner ecosystem by releasing Geocoder API specifications. This collaboration will empower MuleSoft developers to create more engaging and contextual user experiences with the most comprehensive and accurate location technology.
If you have worked with Mule for any period of time you know that we provide deep support for interacting with Salesforce Clouds – including connectors, templates, and examples. But you may not be aware that Salesforce exposes many different APIs that our connectors leverage for these integrations. Many developers may be familiar with the real-time, bulk, or streaming integration patterns that Salesforce supports. This blog will touch on a lesser-known API resource Salesforce has released and the MuleSoft connector that supports it.
Life sciences companies are facing tougher obstacles in bringing new therapies to market than ever before. With an average drug approval process taking up to 15 years and billions of dollars to complete, new technological advancements are being leveraged to help manage the growing clinical, regulatory, and commercial needs necessary to accelerate time to market.
In the digital economy, connectivity is everything. A key part of connectivity is growing an ecosystem that enables you to tap into data from anywhere.
At MuleSoft, we enable connectivity to everything. As a No. 1 priority, we will continue to invest in tooling that makes it easy to build your own connectors as well as connect to any API. As such, we are constantly expanding and updating the number of connectors provided by MuleSoft and our ecosystem.
One of main use cases with Salesforce that MuleSoft customers use involves uploading records that are stored in CSV format to Salesforce. MuleSoft has provided various ways to fulfill this use case. We have dataloader.io, the most popular Data Loader for Salesforce on Salesforce AppExchange, and also have Anypoint Platform’s Salesforce Connector with various operations.
We added another option to help you easily accomplish the above use case.
An ObjectStore is a Mule component which allows for simple key-value storage. Although it can serve a wide variety of use cases, it’s mainly designed for:
Storing synchronization information like watermarks
Storing temporal information like access tokens
Storing user information
If you are a Mule 3 user, then you’re already familiar with this concept. However, we feel that creating and defining these stores could be made much simpler.
In my previous blog, we covered some of the options for connectors that support Kerberos, today we will focus on two more connectors where Kerberos use cases frequently pop-up: the Anypoint Connector for Hadoop.
In my previous blog, I wrote about Kerberos support in MuleSoft, so it seems only natural to discuss the other place where Kerberos fits into the API ecosystem. Not only can Kerberos be used to secure APIs hosted or proxied by MuleSoft, but certain third-party systems can use or even require Kerberos for their security.
Enterprises are adopting more agile, cost-effective, business technologies to keep pace with rapidly-changing expectations and requirements. According to Gartner more than 60% of midsize and large organizations will deploy Managed File Transfer (MFT) technologies to support a growing number of digital business.
