Mule applications involve three stages of message processing: receiving, component processing, and dispatching. Tuning performance involves optimizing these stages for each service. Threading and pooling profiles specify thread pools and component pools, with the max threads/instances settings determining available concurrency. Calculating the optimal number of threads/instances considers factors like concurrent users, processing time, response time, and timeouts.
Explore case studies from our most demanding deployments and provide a best practice approach to designing and tuning applications for optimal performance.
Equipped with a brand new UI and fully integrated with all design tooling within the platform, this major release of Anypoint Exchange includes capabilities for easy publishing and consumption of API specs, advanced search, collaboration and commenting, and analytics. Join this session to learn about all the new features, and how best to set up and use Anypoint Exchange to maximize reuse and collaboration within your organization.
Aaron Lieberman, a MuleSoft Practice Manager and Lead Consultant at Big Compass will walk us through on how Runtime Fabric can deploy and manage applications deployed to AWS. He will also demonstrate on how a Mule 3 and Mule 4 application can run in parallel in the same Runtime Fabric. With any public API, it has never been more important to enhance your security posture and provide deep visibility with logging and monitoring techniques. Aaron will also talk about how security and logging can work seamlessly with your distributed application network to make supporting any application better.
Finally, any modern application must be highly available and provide fault tolerance. We will have some fun with wreaking havoc on our Runtime Fabric infrastructure, and see how the highly available architecture holds up against potential infrastructure outages and attacks.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

2. • There are several ways to tune performance in Mule. I’ve just finished
a page on performance tuning in the Mule 2.x User Guide that walks
through the available performance tuning options and provides
formulas for calculating threads. Following is an excerpt of the high-
level information from that page.
3. Overview
• Essentially, a Mule application is a collaboration of a set of services.
Messages are processed by services in three stages:
• Connector receiving stage
• Service component processing stage
• Connector dispatching stage
Tuning performance in Mule involves analyzing and improving these three
stages for each service. You can start by applying the same tuning approach
to all services and then further customize the tuning for each service as
needed.
4. About Thread Pools
• Each request that comes into Mule is processed on its own thread. A
connector’s receiver has a thread pool with a certain number of
threads available to process requests on the inbound endpoints that
use that connector.
5. • If you are using synchronous processing, the same receiver thread will be
used to carry the message all the way through Mule, whereas if you are
doing asynchronous processing, the receiver thread is used only to carry
the message to the component, at which point the message is transferred
to a component thread, and the receiver thread is released back into the
receiver thread pool so it can carry another message. After the component
has finished processing an asynchronous message, it is transferred to a
dispatcher thread and is sent on its way.
• Therefore, the receiver, component, and dispatcher all have separate
thread pools that are in use during asynchronous processing, whereas only
the receiver thread pool is in use for synchronous processing.
6. About Threading Profiles
• The threading profile specifies how the thread pools behave in Mule.
You specify a separate threading profile for each receiver thread pool,
component thread pool, and dispatcher thread pool. The most
important setting of each is maxThreadsActive, which specifies how
many threads are in the thread pool.
7. About Pooling Profiles
• Unlike singleton components, pooled components each have a
component pool, which contains multiple instances of the component
to handle simultaneous incoming requests. A service’s pooling profile
configures its component pool. The most important setting is
maxActive, which specifies the maximum number of instances of the
component that Mule will create to handle simultaneous requests.
Note that this number should be the same as the maxThreadsActive
setting on the receiver thread pool, so that you have enough
component instances available to handle the threads. You can use
Mule HQ to monitor your component pools and see the maximum
number of components you’ve used from the pool to help you tune
the number of components and threads.
8. Calculating Threads
• So how do you calculate the number of threads to set? There are
several factors to consider, including concurrent user requests,
processing time, response time, and timeout time. All of these factors
are described in detail on the Performance Tuning page, along with
formulas you can use to determine the number of threads to set for
the receiver, service, component, and dispatcher, and the number of
component instances to configure.
