A simple presentation regarding Mule Python component.

2. WHAT IS PYTHON?
Python is a widely used high-level, general-purpose, interpreted,
dynamic programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code
readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of
code than possible in languages such as C++ or Java.

3. MULE PYTHON COMPONENT
If you’re comfortable coding in Python, then the Python Component is the ideal
versatile tool to fall back on for these cases. Mule also includes also equivalent
scripting components for other languages. The Python Component is also handy for
when you’re modernizing legacy systems, as you can simply throw the old lines of
code into a component instead of having to reengineer the code’s behavior
through a series of different Mule components (this is not ideal from a debugging
and maintenance perspective, though). The Python script is generally executed at
runtime (client-side request) and the custom logic embedded in the script could
trigger an application to execute a database transaction, or modify your web-page
interface.
