MuleSoft For Mobile Applications

860 Elevator was shut down and the Freight Elevator is to be used while the building
fixes and upgrades the 860 elevator.
860 ElevatorSituation. Complication. Implication. Position. Action. Benefit.
#MuleSoftMeetup
The Freight Elevator (much like the 860 Elevator) is often out of service and people have
to take the stairs.
Not knowing when the elevator was not working would at times cause you to wait for the
elevator that will never show up, causing you to be late to calls.
Can we have visibility into when the elevator is working or not? Can we self manage its
status?
Download 860 Elevator app for iOS or Android
Be in the know before you take the 860 elevator and help your peers with status
reporting.

Plan, design, and construct software solutions, primarily in the
Salesforce ecosystem.

#MuleSoftMeetup

32 Postman JavaScript tests created across 8 Mulesoft API endpoints/calls
o Four tests for each response:
(1) Response Time < 200 or 400 ms - Depends on the call / expected response
time.
(2) Response Code = 200 OK
(3) Response Body - Different for each call.
(4) Response Headers - Different for each call.
Integration Testing
#MuleSoftMeetup

o Added elevator.tests.0625.json Postman Collection to BitBucket repo in “QA-Tests” folder
o Runs automatically during every commit to repo as part of build
o Scheduled to run hourly in BitBucket Pipelines CI using newman CLI via bitbucket-pipelines.yml
Future enhancements:
o Add negative requests and tests (error handling/error messages)
o Add additional tests (i.e. fifth test for schema validation) for happy path requests
Added all tests to Continuous Integration

Agenda
23
1. Motivation
2. What is Async
3. How MuleSoft enables you
4. Spotting Signs of Async need

The “Mobile” Experience
24
• What distinguishes designing mobile from non-mobile experiences?
• Fallacies of distributed systems (L Peter Deutsch, 1994, Sun
Microsystems):
– The network is reliable
– Latency is zero
– Bandwidth is infinite
– Network is secure
– Topology does not change
– There is one administrator
– Transport cost is zero
– The network is homogenous
#MuleSoftMeetup

Asynchronous Synchronous
The Choice
25
• Increases availability of resources.
• Mean time SLA for outputs after
inputs.
• Responsive
• Hard to design &
troubleshoot
– Many elements
• Scales easily
• Often “intuitive” way to solve a
problem
• Predictable ordering of outputs &
inputs
• Resource Blocking
• Easier to analyze and optimize
generally; hard to scale under
imperfect conditions.

#MuleSoftMeetup

API-led Architecture enables Scalability
26
• Elements of clean asynchronous design:
– Stateless
– Well-defined interaction
– Ephemeral
– Explicit
– Loose coupling
– Messaging model
• Exactly the best practices advocated by MuleSoft for API-led
architecture
• Infrastructure that comes with MuleSoft enables scalability &
robustness by facilitating clean async designs
#MuleSoftMeetup

Infrastructure Elements: Queues
27
• AMQP connectors are included -
- connect with any AMQP
compliant messaging
implementation.
• VM queues
– Flows can be async too and can
use queuing.
– work distribution on a cluster
– simple queuing needs
#MuleSoftMeetup

Infrastructure Elements: Caching
28
• Intelligent caching can
immensely change the user
experience.
• Cache scope
– Works & composes inline with
flows
– MuleSoft transparently uses
backing store to implement key-
value lookups
#MuleSoftMeetup

Use case Criteria
29
• When to use an asynchronous design?
– When requirements call for:
• Always-on availability
• Rate scaling/mismatch (latency and bandwidth)
• Large number of readers of static-ish data
• Network is unreliable
• User experience needs to be mobile
• Async design is NOT easy -- but the payoff is often worth it for
enterprises, robustness, scalability, & extensibility.
