Summary
MuleSoft’s universal API management on Anypoint Platform is the next evolution of API management, providing full lifecycle management capabilities to APIs that are built and deployed anywhere in any architecture or environment. It is a collection of new and existing products that provide a single control plane to enable comprehensive visibility, flexible management, and consistent governance of APIs at scale, no matter the size, language, or cloud.
In this course, students get hands-on experience using Anypoint API Manager, Anypoint Mule Gateway, Anypoint Flex Gateway, Anypoint API Governance, Anypoint CLI, Anypoint Monitoring, and Anypoint API Analytics to manage, deploy, govern, secure, monitor, and analyze APIs.
