Mule is an integration platform that allows systems, services, APIs and devices to connect through a single runtime engine. It handles message routing, data mapping, orchestration, reliability, security and scalability between integrated nodes. Mule can connect other systems and applications, managing communication and allowing monitoring of the application ecosystem. It offers features like deploying on-premises or cloud applications, using connectors for SaaS integration, building and exposing APIs, consuming APIs, creating web services, interfaces for mobile apps, integrating B2B solutions, moving apps to cloud, and connecting e-commerce activities.

Mule Fundamentals

2. About Mule
Mule is the lightweight integration runtime engine that allows you to
connect anything, anywhere. Rather than creating multiple point-to-point
integrations between systems, services, APIs, and devices, use Mule to
intelligently manage message routing, data mapping, orchestration,
reliability, security, and scalability between nodes. Plug other systems and
applications into Mule and let it handle communication between systems,
allowing you to track and monitor your application ecosystem and
external resources.
