The value of integration
What is it & How do you find it?
Depends on the use case
It’s not what, but how and why….
Typical examples:
- Reduced mean time to repair
- Speed to market
- Security
- Infrastructure optimisation
Total = $7,783,171
Three-year, risk-adjusted total present value
Customers can realize 445% ROI with Anypoint Platform
Forrester TEI Study shows MuleSoft delivers $7.8 million in benefits for an organization

Increase in API reuse value through Anypoint Platform
Time savings toward building new APIs
Cost savings from reduced maintenance of APIs and integrations
Incremental revenue from contributions to projects
Cost savings for retired technologies

Comparing costs
Typical considerations
Approach to licensing
Initial license cost
Implementation costs
Training costs Often missed
Additional licenses as more
capacity required
Developer productivity
Increased maintenance
overhead
Architecture lock in
Speed to market
Security

Maintenance spend reduction
Business process automation
Field and Support (agent) productivity
Use APIs to standardize the way systems
connect to each other. Plug/unplug
systems using a hybrid integration
platform.
Adopt a "plug and play" approach to
integration, wrapping systems in APIs and
creating "building blocks." Use "building
blocks" to build new, more efficient
processes.
-Lower IT operating costs
-Improved business agility
-Lower operating costs
-Maintain and improve competitive advantage
-Improved business agility
-Improved employee productivity & satisfaction
Improve the customer experience
(increase customer acquisition,
spend, retention)
360-degree customer view
Mobile/eCommerce
Omnichannel
Adopt a "plug and play" approach to
integration, wrapping systems in APIs and
creating "building blocks." Use "building
blocks" to build new, customer-engaging
process and applications.
-Improved customer experience
-Improved reputation and brand
-Maintain and improve digital competitiveness
-More revenue, better customer retention,
higher spend per customer
Sample output

Challenges in the process of being overcome with MuleSoft
API strategy →
- Lack of clearly documented and socialized API
strategy
- Lack of clear mandate to standardize
connectivity of systems, processes, and data
→
- Lack of alignment between business and IT
- Integrations driving limited business value
- High IT operating costs
Developer on-ramp →
- Developers required to learn multiple coding
languages to integrate applications
→
- Long developer on-ramp period
- High IT onboarding costs
- Long time to full productivity
Area Observation Implication
Integration technology
& tooling →
- No integration platform. Systems connected in a
point to point, non-standard way
→
- Slower project speeds
- Delayed time to market
- Poor project quality
- Suboptimal security
- High maintenance costs
- Poor governance
Sample output

Challenges in the process of being overcome with MuleSoft
Re-use →
- Limited to no reuse of integration code across
projects
- Limited use of or no repository to store reusable
pieces integration code
- Lack of an IT operating model that encourages
reuse or collaboration across development teams
→
-Slow project speeds
- Long time to market
- Poor project quality
Integration security →
- Security policies have to be manually coded into
integrations
- No consistent or governable way to check that all
endpoints are sufficiently secured
- Maintaining security of integrations is manual
→
- Poor security
- High IT operating costs
Area Observation Implication
Integration
development →
- Systems and applications are integrated
manually
- Duplicative development efforts - the same
integration code is written for each project
→
-Slow project speeds
- Long time to market

What is MUnit?
● MUnit is the testing
framework specifically
targeted to testing Mule
applications
● It natively supports unit
and integration testing
on APIs and Mule apps
in local and CI/CD
environments (via
Maven).

21. All contents © MuleSoft Inc.
How do you use MUnit?
1 Use MUnit to build test
flows (technically called
test suites in the
industry) focused on
executing Mule flows.
Each test is essentially a
Mule flow.
2 Use components from
MUnit and generic Mule
components to build test
flows
3 Test flows execute in
a Mule runtime and
report results
