MuleSoft Anypoint API Manager Primary Use Case

AmitKanodia - PeerSpot reviewer
Cloud & Integration CoE Head at Capgemini

Our primary use case is API connectivity when integrating different systems or applications with the help of the API. There is a very robust API architecture that helps in directing different applications. In the B2B space, they have come up with a new offering, which is a partner manager, that helps to have the B2B integration with any EDI, X12, or any other B2B transactions.

We worked predominantly for the BFSI financial sectors and for one of the automobile industries. They're taught in Europe. 

The applications where the customers wanted to download a report, a customer is associated with multiple customers, where they wanted to download the reports for analytics or just wanted to see what is the annual income or something like that. We expose an API for each customer. We will apply a policy where the APIs are being secured. So, each customer will have their own client ID and client secrets.

MuleSoft Developer at SynergySoft

I have dealt with a few use cases involving MuleSoft Anypoint API Manager, but I am unsure whether its features are useful in my company. The tool is useful for the governance of APIs that I have created with some policies, like SLA-based policies or rate-limiting policies. In general, it is an advanced product.

The main reason for using MuleSoft Anypoint API Manager is that the company's external systems inside the customers' ecosystem need to be publicly called APIs by providing the paid version of API so that anyone can access the endpoints from the internet. In our company, we need some tools to configure who can or can't call you while being able to control the amount of calls, irrespective of how many they are. In our company, the tool becomes useful to make five calls per minute with our current license.

MA
Senior Architect at a consultancy with 1,001-5,000 employees

We do business with a lot of other vendors and customers. Our main core business is to lend loans and lease furniture. In this context, we have to create partners and we have to do multiple transactions with multiple vendors and multiple facilitators. In this venture, we consider APIs the best, and our most sophisticated medium to communicate with other partners and other lenders at home and elsewhere.

We want APIs to be the most sophisticated and more robust. REST APIs are the core in this area. We have been using Mulesoft specifically to create our REST APIs, enlarge them, and also expose the endpoints to our vendors so that they can use them. Internally, we have been using the APIs extensively for all of our internal application communication. Raw ping and workflow and all those things. We use this Mulesoft extensively for API management, REST API stack, and also for the workflow.
