Mulesoft- Appropriate interface/data technology and interface definition language for all integration interfaces - soap ,rest and file

 

SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol)

SOAP is a protocol for exchanging structured information in a platform-independent manner, typically over HTTP, using XML.

  • Transport: HTTP/HTTPS (most common), SMTP, or TCP for specific use cases.
  • Data Format: XML (mandatory for SOAP messages).

  • REST (Representational State Transfer)

    REST is an architectural style for designing networked applications, relying on stateless, client-server communication, typically over HTTP.

  • Transport: HTTP/HTTPS.
  • Data Format: JSON (most common due to its lightweight nature), XML, or plain text.

    File-Based Integration

    File-based integration involves exchanging data via files (e.g., CSV, JSON, XML) over protocols like FTP, SFTP, or shared file systems.


  • Transport:
    • FTP/SFTP for secure file transfer.
  • Data Format:
    • CSV: For tabular data, widely supported but lacks schema enforcement.
    • JSON: For structured, hierarchical data, lightweight and flexible.
    • XML: For complex, schema-driven data, common in legacy systems.
