Mule is a lightweight enterprise service bus (ESB) and integration framework[1] provided by MuleSoft. It has a Java-based platform and can also act as broker for interactions between other platforms such as .NET using web services or sockets.

It has a scalable[2] and distributable object broker architecture that can manage interactions across legacy systems, in-house applications, and modern transports and protocols.[3]
