What is Anypoint Platform Architecture: Application Networks Certification Training about?

An application network connects applications, data, and devices within an enterprise and to external ecosystems using APIs. This instructor-led course teaches experienced enterprise and solution architects how to direct the emergence of an effective application network out of individual integration solutions following API-led connectivity across an organization. It is case-study driven, with the solution architecture and effect on the organization's enterprise architecture for two strategic change initiatives being documented as the course progresses.

What are the objectives of Anypoint Platform Architecture: Application Networks Certification Training ?

At the end of this course, students should be able to:

  • Break down functional requirements into business-aligned, versioned APIs with effective granularity and API data model.
  • Direct creation and publication of API-related assets using RAML and Anypoint Platform components.
  • Architect for non-functional requirements on the level of API invocations and API implementations using components of Anypoint Platform.
  • Architect for specific requirements by augmenting API-led connectivity with Event-Driven Architecture.
  • Select 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 is Anypoint Platform Architecture: Application Networks Certification Training for?

Senior solution and enterprise architects who have experience with common integration approaches (like SOA) and integration technologies/platforms and have basic knowledge and experience with the components of Anypoint Platform

What are the prerequisites for Anypoint Platform Architecture: Application Networks Certification Training?

A basic knowledge and experience with the components of Anypoint Platform from one of the following:

Completion of the instructor-led Getting Started with Anypoint Platform course or the self-study MuleSoft  Getting Started with Anypoint Platform course

Completion of the instructor-led Anypoint Platform Development  Fundamentals course or the self-study MuleSoft Development Fundamentals course

Equivalent knowledge and experience with the components of Anypoint Platform to the extent covered in the Getting Started with Anypoint Platform course

Prior architecture knowledge and experience:

A clear understanding of the concepts and steps involved in developing software for the JVM (usually from developing in some JVM-based programming language)

Recent experience as an architect for a cloud platform software development initiative using any technology stack

A full understanding of the fundamental ingredients of enterprise integration including interface definitions and contracts; data encoding using XML or JSON; REST APIs or SOAP web services; SQL or NoSQL database access; message-passing using JMS, AMQP or similar; network protocols like TCP/IP, HTTP and HTTPS; single-resource transactions

Familiarity with the purpose of common components of enterprise and cloud technology architectures including identity providers, load-balancers, and name servers

Familiarity with basic security concepts including certificates and encryption at rest and in transit
