Challenges
The client faced the challenge of achieving rapid turnaround times for their API development and migration processes. They needed to develop new APIs and subsequently migrate their existing .NET Core microservice-based APIs to a modern platform. This required managing the entire lifecycle, including API specification, documentation, development, unit testing, and deployments, within the integrated ecosystem.
Solutions
Our team of experts engaged in extensive discussions with the client’s team to gain a comprehensive understanding of their challenges and requirements. By thoroughly analyzing their business processes, we identified key areas that needed improvement and determined that implementing MuleSoft would be the optimal solution to address their challenges. This strategic decision was aimed at enhancing their API development and migration processes, ensuring seamless integration, efficient management, and faster turnaround times.
Our process involved:
Design:
- Developed API specifications using MuleSoft API Manager with RAML-based definitions.
- Defined endpoint specifications, including HTTP methods, query parameters, and validation rules essential for financial transactions.
- Utilized existing API definitions to create a foundational structure and routing mechanism.
Development:
- Imported existing API definitions to establish a development framework.
- Organized API endpoints into distinct flows for better management and maintenance.
Authentication:
- Integrated Mule Exchange with the client’s Duende Identity Server using OAuth 2.0.
- Configured encryption algorithms, token endpoints, and validation keys to secure financial data.
Unit testing:
- Developed comprehensive Munit-based test scenarios to validate API flows and ensure thorough coverage.
Deployment:
- Deployed the solution on MuleSoft’s OnPrem platform, leveraging its scalability and deployment capabilities.
- Used MuleSoft’s Anypoint Monitoring for resource utilization insights, logging, and event alerts.
