Hi All,
Between Mule ESB or IIB, which one to choose ? can someone guide me or provide some insight on how they differ in some cases ? |

The one which best fits your individual need and requirements.

Not really; we don't know the specifics of your situation. Factors you should consider include (but are not limited to):
- Price
- Support
- Resource requirements
- Scalability
and once again, which has the best feature/function fit for what you're trying to do

What cases?
If you have specific use cases along the lines of "we need an ESB that does <....>", this should be a driver to the decision and ideally the basis for a Proof Of Concept. Try to implement this use case using Mule ESB (which is free) and the IIB Developer Edition (which is free). Observe the strengths and weaknesses of the 2 processes, and decide.
I should point out that I was forced to unleash a fair amount of sarcasm at an architect who'd done such a PoC at a previous site and chosen the not IIB solution, as a prelude to explaining why he didn't want to use the IIB estate this site has built out. His (rather pompous) reason?

Be aware of this.

It's hard to work on performance when your developer edition is limited at 1 TPS...

This was the main thrust of my argument. Well... tirade. Moving to rant after about 3 minutes. With worked examples of flows here that do 600 TPS without excessive resource use. And some arm waving.

You would think that a result of exactly one per second max would suggest something capping the throughput.
Even someone with half a brain would then write a dummy flow to prove this theory, or google it.
I sometimes despair for the future of IT.

I may have brought that up as well. I'm a bit hazy on some of the later details. There was this red mist, which I suspect was pure caffeine, floating through the office distracting me.

A deficiency of unicorn horns, perhaps? |

Absolutely.
