 API-led Connectivity: MuleSoft’s API-led connectivity approach divides APIs into three tiers: System,

Process, and Experience. Each tier has a specific role in managing data and operations.

 Experience APIs: These APIs are designed to provide data to end-user interfaces, such as mobile and

web applications. They typically format the data in a way that is easy for the user interface to

consume.

 Process APIs: Process APIs are responsible for orchestrating and executing business logic. They

aggregate, transform, and process data from multiple sources before passing it to Experience APIs or

other downstream systems.

 System APIs: These APIs provide direct access to core systems and data sources. They handle CRUD

(Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations and expose data from underlying systems.

 Data Aggregation and Transformation: Given the requirements to aggregate and transform data, the

Process tier is the appropriate place. Process APIs handle complex business logic and data

transformation, making them ideal for aggregating data from multiple sources and transforming it as

needed.
