MuleSoft's Approach to Driving Customer Outcomes MuleSoft
From our experience in working with over 1,000 customers, we’ve codified an approach that will help you to avoid common IT failures. Join this session to learn about the three critical pillars (business outcomes, org enablement, technology) needed to achieve your outcomes and how to get started.
Every part of a business needs technology to deliver new products and services, to make use of data, or to provide better experiences for customers, partners, and employees. In order to deliver this, IT can no longer function as the sole technology to the business; it must transform into an adaptive, responsive and nimble organization that can keep up with the pace of the digital era.
This presentation will show you how to create that transformation, suggest roles and functions for the modern IT organization, and provide a real-world case study of one major company that made the shift.
The Blueprint for Change: How the Best Are Succeeding in TransformationMuleSoft
Learn about the most impactful patterns of success for companies who are succeeding in transformation and the common pitfalls for companies who struggle. MuleSoft's Vice President of Customer Success, Brent Grimes, will explore the best-practice operating models to support transformation and will overview MuleSoft's Catalyst engagement model for getting your Application Network off the ground.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

A Centre for Enablement (C4E) plays a key role in evolving, assuring, guiding and governing the
evolution of your API landscape using MuleSoft. It comprises the people, process and technology
enablers that allow your organisation to evolve a thriving API ecosystem.
11. 11
A C4E offers real value – if you can measure that value
…but it takes time
12. 12
API Delivery End Game – Vicious vs Virtuous thinking
API’s can be equated to a ‘currency’ in an organisation. To make that currency of value, one needs
to provide a structure that can pivot your organisation toward a ‘virtuous’ delivery mode, rather
than ‘vicious’.
A virtuous delivery circle can continually add to your API ecosystem value so the adoption of a
C4E that is self improving is what you want to aim for.
13. 13
Launching your C4E (think MVP)
When starting out, adopting a centralized – API Factory – type
model can offer a lot of benefits as you move to future state
(especially if MuleSoft is new to the business) :-
ü Define your Vision, Mission, Charter and Roadmap
ü Shape your foundational team
ü Identify skills, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities
ü People – buddy up new with experienced hands
ü Develop your foundational standards, baselines, ways of
working
ü Establish your Governance artefacts – Integration Catalogue,
API Registry, NFR’s, Templates, etc.
ü Validate through several sprints, refine and revise, build speed
ü Think about next step evolution…..

API Governance – Winhearts andminds
through clearly defined explanations
An essential success factor in taking product
owners, architects, developers and other
stakeholders on the API led journey is
winning hearts and minds around the vision
of your API ecosystem.
To achieve this, consider taking them through
how end to end integrations are broken down
into the API’ that enable them.
Often, API’s are understood as to what they
are , but often what’s not explained is how
one gets there in a structured, predictable,
reusable way.
By taking people through that journey, your
C4E can become the enabler that helps you
achieve that virtuous lifecycle you need it to
be.

Definition of Ready / Definition of Done – Design and Build
Build Architect / Design
In order to create “effective habits” in delivery, the following constructs were developed to coach and govern
deliverables.
These largely revolved around defining the required artefacts or deliverables around:
- Design - Definition of Ready (DoR) and Definition of Done (DoD)
- Build - Definition of Ready (DoR) and Definition of Done
21. 21
Build out Templates and Accelerators (build in predictability)
Templates and Accelerators consisted of:
ü Tips and Tricks
ü Configuration Guides
ü Getting Started Guides for Anypoint Studio
ü Mule Templates – Published to Exchange
ü Principles – Overall Integration and API Led Principles
ü Patterns – EAI + API Centric
ü Standards – REST, Dataweave, Flows
ü API Sizing and Story Pointing Metrics / Methodology
ü Platform NFR’s and Candidate Solutions or Patterns
(aligned to Enterprise NFR’s)
ü JIRA templates
ü Logging Frameworks (log4j)
ü CI/CD Frameworks
Pro Tip: Align your templated backlog tasks to DoR / DoD for Design and Build. Clone
these ahead of or during Sprint Planning to accelerate readiness.

What’s the best tooling to adopt ?
ü MuleSoft Metrics Accelerator
• Based on Open Source
• Pulls all key metric data via the Platform API’s
• Supports a number of commonly used analytic platforms including Splunk and Elastic
Search
• Runs on MuleSoft – easily deployable
• Easy to extend to other target analytic solutions
• Doesn’t support data from other sources – but can be easily extended (think API’s !!!)
• Allows you to achieve a ‘single pane of glass’ analytic outcome
• How to - https://blogs.mulesoft.com/api-integration/strategy/measure-the-value-of-your-
anypoint-platform-implementation/
ü Anypoint Monitoring
• Needs specific licensing
• Out of the box
• Single pane of glass
• Hard to push external metrics in
Regardless of which solution you pick, a goal should be to achieve a ‘single pane of glass’ solution.
This will ensure your C4E customers have ease of access to the insights they need across the
platform. Value will be achieved quicker.
27. 27
Consider the designof your target solution
• Consider your data sources (MuleSoft, ServiceNow, JIRA, etc)

Example #1: MeasuringUsage of the Platform
31
• The What ?
• Organisations and Business Groups – who
are your consumers ?
• Number of reusable assets on Exchange
• Total number of reusable API’s
• Registered or active users of your platform by
type, role, business group, etc.
• The Why ?
• Understand the usage of your platform,
where its high, where its needing C4E focus
• Monitor asset growth over time
• Monitor and assist usage over time – who are
your ‘customers’ ?
33. 33
Example #2 : API Usage by Organization, TopUsedAPIs
33
• The What ?
• Usage by different parts of the business
• Degree of reuse by API or Category
• The Why ?
• Low reuse can give insight into how
discoverable, flexible an API
• Low reuse can help identify where consumers
are seeing gaps in your API ecosystem
• Reuse monitoring can help identify
opportunities for further business enablement
34. 34
Example #3: API by Business Domain
34
• The What ?
• Breakdown consumption by domain, type and
rating
• The Why ?
• Provides insight into usage across domains
• Insight into reusability across the enterprise vs
domain specific assets
• Insight into consumer feedback to drive further
enablement
35. 35
Example #4: UsingKPI’s for Governance andQuality Improvement
35
• The What ?
• Identify gaps in Design, Non-Functionals,
Testing, etc.
• Monitor effectiveness of standards, principles,
patterns and their implementation
• Ensure platform configurations which enforce
NFR’s are being applied (e.g. Policies)
• Ensure Exchange documentation is up to
date
• The Why ?
• Gaps in quality can affect delivery
• Gaps in Non-Functionals can expose API’s to issues
around Security, Reliability, Scalability
• Non-Categorisation of assets can affect
discoverability, reusability
37. 37
Example #6: PlatformCapacity Monitoring
37
• The What ?
• Understand platform capacity usage and
consumption
• The Why ?
• Insight into platform consumption ensures effective
use of license
• It can also give insight into potential reuse
challenges or gaps in overall design strategy of the
API ecosystem (e.g. DDD)
38. 38
Example #7: Defect Management
38
• The What ?
• Cross align API insights with incident
management insights
• Reliant on integration with your incident
management platform (e.g. ServiceNow)
• The Why ?
• Insight into Build, Test and Runtime
defects across API’s, Severity, etc.
39. 39
Nutshell - Platform Insight + C4E can improve quality,
reduce cost and accelerate delivery
API delivery velocity can be
accelerated quickly with the
adoption of practical
templates, tools and ways
of working to aid architects
and developers.
But….
If you can’t measure how

As an example, a recent project where a strong C4E and Platform Insights were combined
over time achieved the following outcomes:
40
44% Governance insights helped improve tagging,
categorization, documentation, etc., making
API’s easier to find, understand and consume
Improved discovery
60% Insights helped to significantly reduce build
and deployment errors and improve the
quality of DevOps over time
Reduce delivery
errors, harden
DevOps
30% Higher quality assets plus ease of discovery
increased reuse of API assets, especially System
API’s which were domain centric
Increased reusability
How good can it really be ?
65% Quality, Re-Use, Governance – all helped to
massively accelerate projects and increase
trust in the API ecosystem
Accelerate delivery
