mulesoft笔记

首先了解一下云服务的整个架构，由Iaas、Paas和Saas三部分组成，其是一个逐渐软化的过程：

而在Paas层又细分出aPaas和iPaas，其区别主要是：

• iPaas解决企业里各个软件造成的壁垒问题，减轻IT任务量，偏向Iaas；
• aPaas满足企业追求的灵活但要性价比高的软件开发，降低开发门槛，偏向Saas。

mulesoft是什么？

mulesoft是一个云平台，在后端与前端之间的中继站。这个中继站通过MuleSoft对后端发送的数据进行处理和包装，然后发给前端。在这里前端需要Dataweave处理得到的RAML格式的数据。

RAML
RAML的全称是RESTful API建模语言，这是一种基于YAML格式的新规范，因此机器与人类都能够轻易地理解其中的内容。但RAML的目的不仅仅在于创建更易于理解的规范（你可以将这一工作指派给文档团队，他们会做得更好）而已。RAML的设计者Uri Sarid希望使用者能够打破固有的思维，在开始编写代码之前以一种全新的方式对API进行建模。

Dataweave
Dataweave中文翻译为数据编织。Dataweave是一个简单而强大的工具，主要用在Mule中的Transform Message组件，用于在Mule内部查询和转换数据（XML，JSON，CSV…）。
