Chapter 14. Augmenting Mule with orthogonal technologies
This chapter covers
- Using business process management systems with Mule
- Complex event processing in Mule applications
- Business rules evaluation in Mule applications
- Scheduling with Mule
Mule, as you’ve seen through the course of this book, offers a wealth of features that simplify the architecture, implementation, and deployment of integration applications. We’ll now take a look at some technologies that complement these applications, often simplifying their implementation or offering features that Mule doesn’t offer directly. We’ll touch on their high-level features and where those commonly intersect with Mule, providing a foundation for your own experiments. Finally, these technologies are often used in conjunction with Mule, so some awareness of them might simplify a future implementation or give you context when you’re ramping up on a Mule project that’s using them.
