Overview

Discover how to build an application network with API-led connectivity using Anypoint Platform. In this 3-day instructor-led course, learn how to generate an effective application network out of individual integration solutions in order to connect applications, data, and devices with APIs.

Skills Gained

When you complete this class, you will be able to:

  • Break down functional requirements into business-aligned, versioned APIs with effective granularity and an API data model.
  • Direct creation and publication of API-related assets using RESTful API modeling language (RAML) and Anypoint Platform components.
  • Architect for non-functional requirements on the level of API invocations and implementations using components of Anypoint Platform.
  • Design for specific requirements by augmenting API-led connectivity with event-driven architecture.
  • Select appropriate Anypoint Platform deployment options.
  • Advise on effective use of the automation capabilities of Anypoint Platform for DevOps, CI/CD, and testing.
  • Advise on the establishment and operation of a Center for Enablement (C4E).

Who Can Benefit

This course is designed for senior solution architects and enterprise architects who are responsible for building application networks with API-led connectivity on MuleSoft Anypoint Platform. This is also a great course for anyone interested in earning their MuleSoft Platform Architect I credential. Students should hold their MuleSoft Developer I credential or possess equivalent knowledge, have previous experience as an architect for a cloud platform software development initiative, and understand how to develop software for Java Virtual Machine. They should be familiar with enterprise integration, including interface definitions and contracts, data encoding with XML or JSON, REST APIs or SOAP web services, query languages, message-passing (using Java Message Service, Advanced Message Queuing Protocol, or similar), network protocols (such as TCP, IP, HTTP, and HTTPS), and single-resource transactions. Students should also have a basic understanding of Anypoint Platform, foundational security concepts, including certificates and encryption, and common enterprise and cloud technology architecture components, including identity providers, load-balancers, and name servers.

Reviews

The training was good but needed the basic skills of maximo before getting deep in the configuration of it.

I was very pleased with the course setup by ExitCertified and the instructor.

This is my second course with ExitCertified. This course exceeded my expectations. The teacher was great and the class was fun.

It was very informative and covered all the required materials along with handson labs for practice.

I registered a day before class and am happy that I received all the materials and links in time for the class. Thanks.
