This document summarizes a presentation about Mule 4 and Studio 7 Beta. It highlights that Mule 4 radically simplifies development, is a platform for new tools, drives reuse, and enables management at scale. Studio 7 improves the user interface and adds deeper Maven integration. The presentation demonstrates new features like simplified connectors, error handling, the DataWeave expression language, and the Mule SDK for extending Mule. It notes that migration tools will provide an easy transition and that future functionality is in progress.
