Introduction
MuleSoft is a leading Integration-Platform-as-a-Service (IPaaS) that provides an integration platform to help businesses connect data, applications, and devices across on-premises and cloud-operated environments. Anypoint Platform includes various tools to develop, manage, and test integration solutions and APIs and supports most of the widely used integration patterns.
One such frequently implemented Integration pattern is Polling Consumer. MuleSoft provides a Poll component that helps to implement this pattern. Using this component, any Mule application can poll for a message, process it and then poll again for another message from the source system. Note that there are many advanced capabilities that this component provides and will not be discussed here. https://goo.gl/GS5gaC
