SAN FRANCISCO, CA — (Marketwired) — 04/03/13 — MuleSoft, provider of the world-s most widely used integration platform, today unveiled its , realizing its vision for the with the easiest and most complete way to connect any application, any data source and any API, across the entire cloud and on-premise continuum. Companies can no longer compete with just the assets, technology and talent within their four walls. In the era of the New Enterprise, companies must combine an explosion of applications, data, partners and customers into a single, high performing entity. The New Enterprise is hyperconnected, and open APIs are the catalyst for this revolution. The Anypoint Platform enables companies to win in this new era, by easily connecting disparate SaaS, mobile and on-premise systems, within and across organizations. The newly released APIkit, Anypoint Service Registry and Anypoint API Manager complete the Anypoint Platform to give organizations a clear path to build, sell and innovate as the New Enterprise.
“The cloud, mobile and Big Data era has ushered in an opportunity to create new competitive advantages based on integration. Along with this new era, there comes confusion about how to integrate these fragmented endpoints to create that advantage,” said Carl Lehmann, analyst with 451 Research. “Hybrid cloud integration architecture is emerging as a means to standardize practices and consolidate the technology needed to integrate on-premise IT systems and cloud services. Organizations will seek offerings, like those from MuleSoft, that can manage integration equally well on either side of the firewall.”
The rise of APIs has created a common language for the New Enterprise. The number of open APIs has doubled every year, growing from just a few in 2005 to over 13,000 today, and into the hundreds of thousands in the next 5 years. The API phenomenon is creating a hyperconnected world, as well as creating new channels and business strategies for enterprises. This New Enterprise requires a new kind of platform to support the creation and management of APIs, connectivity between APIs, as well as to drive developer adoption, community and monetization for APIs.
With the Anypoint Platform, MuleSoft delivers a complete integration experience that eliminates the pain and cost of point-to-point integration, connecting the New Enterprise and unifying business processes across applications, data sources and APIs. The Anypoint Platform enables a path to the New Enterprise, no matter where an organization is along the continuum toward the cloud. The platform includes open source Mule ESB; CloudHub integration platform as a service (iPaaS); the newly released APIkit, Anypoint Service Registry and Anypoint API Manager; APIhub, the #1 platform for driving the API ecosystem; as well as Mule Studio, a single graphical development environment for developing integration applications either on-premise or in the cloud.
“Box-s open platform enables customers and partners to quickly and seamlessly integrate a proven content collaboration service directly into their own applications,” said Chris Yeh, vice president of Platform at Box. “We share a common vision with MuleSoft to connect businesses to their content at scale, transforming innovation for the New Enterprise.”
“MuleSoft-s New Enterprise vision is supporting NCR-s hardware-enabled, software-driven strategy and enabling us to extend our leadership in consumer transaction technologies,” said Eli Rosner, Vice President, Global Software Engineering, NCR Corporation. “A dramatic shift is happening today as consumers demand seamless interactions with the companies they do business with, regardless of industry, channel, device or location. MuleSoft-s integration platform is helping NCR lead this revolution across multiple industries to make everyday transactions easier for businesses and their customers.”
