Architecture: Mule ESB/MuleSoft logs are collected by the Nodinite Log Agent and delivered to the Nodinite Log API and Log Databases for advanced analytics.

  • Mule On-Premise – Use Log4J Log Appender files for robust, real-time logging.
  • Cloudhub / Anypoint – Leverage the built-in backend database and APIs for seamless cloud integration.

Nodinite empowers your business Users with secure, role-based Log Views for self-service access to integration logs and business events.

Features

Nodinite offers two powerful approaches to enable message logging from Mule ESB flows:

  1. Mule ESB - Custom Connector – Recommended! This approach eliminates the need for the Nodinite Mule ESB Logging Agent by using Asynchronous Logging and the Nodinite Pickup Service. Enjoy maximum performance and flexibility.
  2. Built-in Logging shape – Not recommended for most scenarios, but supported for compatibility.

The Nodinite Mule ESB Logging Agent processes output from the second option, capturing logs (log4j) with message payloads and promoted properties from your Mule ESB flows.

Supported Versions

Nodinite supports all editions of Mule ESB and MuleSoft, including standalone runtime and Enterprise, from version 3.6.x and onwards.

Why choose Nodinite for MuleSoft logging?

  • Gain full visibility into business transactions and technical events across your hybrid integration landscape
  • Empower business users with secure, self-service access to logs and analytics
  • Accelerate troubleshooting and compliance with advanced search and filtering
  • Integrate seamlessly with both on-premise and cloud MuleSoft deployments
