You might have noticed that under certain circumstances Mule will add its own Soap Headers to the CXF calls. This can be a problem in some situations. For example, let’s say I’m communicating with a remote web service that is not expecting these extra headers. This will probably result in a validation failure and leave [...]

Validating data can be easy with Mule if your message payloads are in certain formats. XML payloads, for instance, can be verified for correctness via XML schema or XPath filters. Payload type filters and OGNL expression evaluation can go a long way in asserting your POJO payloads are correct. Payloads with less structure, like Map or [...]

We are extremely pleased with how all turned out and we think that the Cloud Connect DevKit played a huge part into the success [...]

In the vast majority of cases, HTTP requests are processed synchronously: the operation that the client wants to perform on the targeted resource is executed by the same thread and the result is returned right away. This is usually done by connecting the HTTP layer directly to the service layer. This post demonstrates a slightly different [...]

I wrote an article recently on InfoQ about how REST replaced SOAP on the web. The comments rolled in and I found myself if a debate that I have had many times before – “why do I need an integration platform?” There are a number of answers to this, but stripping features away the key [...]

Jasypt is an open source Java library which provides basic encryption capabilities using a high-level API. This library can be used with Mule to avoid clear text passwords for connectors and endpoints.First, download the latest Jasypt distribution, unpack it and copy icu4j and jasypt jars to MULE_HOME/lib/user directory.

Who doesn’t know about Redis? It’s harder and harder to find someone giving a positive answer to this question as the popularity of this key/value store is constantly increasing. With an extensive support for diverse data structures, file-based persistence, a publish/subscribe engine and an upcoming (and highly anticipated) support for clustering, it is indeed not [...]

I think most agree that this years JavaOne had turned a corner. The dark cloud over the future of Java under Oracle’s stewardship had lifted and there was a lot more interesting things happening with the platform. The hot topic was Java 7, and its EE counterpart. Walking away from the conference I had some [...]
