The Shared Goal:Both SOA (an older architectural style) and API-led Connectivity (MuleSoft's modern approach) aim to solve the problem of "Spaghetti Code" by breaking monolithic applications into smaller pieces.
Reusability:The core promise of both isReusability.
SOA:Aimed to create reusable web services (often SOAP).
API-led:Focuses on creating reusable Assets (System, Process, and Experience APIs) that can be discovered and self-served by other teams.
The Difference:While thegoal(Reuse) is the same, SOA often failed due to heavy governance and lack of discoverability. API-led connectivity improves on this by emphasizingconsumptionandself-servicevia the Anypoint Exchange.
