6. Mule ESB vs Other’s ESB tool
 Mule ESB is a complete integration platform and enables Mule to address non-
functional requirements such as reliability, high availability, scalability, and
enterprise security.
 Easy to Learn Mule’s development environment such as data mapping, easy to
learn by providing drag-and-drop functionality.
 Mule provides an intuitive visual development environment, Anypoint Studio and
allows developers to focus on high-level concepts rather than technical details.
 MuleSoft’s Anypoint technology, Mule has instant API connectivity to hundreds of
the most popular on-premises and cloud-based applications and services.These
connectors also integrate proprietary interfaces such as SAP, TIBCO Rendezvous,
Oracle Siebel CRM, PayPal or IBM’s CICS Transaction Gateway .

8. Mule Flow
 A flow is the construct together several individual elements to handle the request,
processing, and eventual routing of a message. You can connect many flows
together to build a complete application which you can then deploy on premise, on
Mule or another application server, or in the cloud.
