Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: Ask the Marketing Department to interact with a mocking implementation
of the API using the automatically generated API Console.
*****************************************
As per MuleSoft's IT Operating Model:
>> API consumers need NOT wait until the full API implementation is ready.
>> NO technical test-suites needs to be shared with end users to interact with APIs.
>> Anypoint Platform offers a mocking capability on all the published API specifications to
Anypoint Exchange which also will be rich in documentation covering all details of API
functionalities and working nature.
>> No needs of arranging days of workshops with end users for feedback.
API consumers can use Anypoint Exchange features on the platform and interact with the
API using its mocking feature. The feedback can be shared quickly on the same to
incorporate any changes.

 

Which of the following best fits the definition of API-led connectivity?


A.

API-led connectivity is not just an architecture or technology but also a way to organize people and processes for efficient IT delivery in the organization


B.

API-led connectivity is a 3-layered architecture covering Experience, Process and System layers


C.

API-led connectivity is a technology which enabled us to implement Experience, Process and System layer based APIs





A.
  

API-led connectivity is not just an architecture or technology but also a way to organize people and processes for efficient IT delivery in the organization



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: API-led connectivity is not just an architecture or technology but also a
way to organize people and processes for efficient IT delivery in the organization.

A System API is designed to retrieve data from a backend system that has scalability challenges. What API policy can best safeguard the backend system?


A.

IPwhitelist


B.

SLA-based rate limiting


C.

Auth 2 token enforcement


D.

Client ID enforcement





B.
  

SLA-based rate limiting



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: SLA-based rate limiting
*****************************************
>> Client Id enforement policy is a "Compliance" related NFR and does not help in
maintaining the "Quality of Service (QoS)". It CANNOT and NOT meant for protecting the
backend systems from scalability challenges.
>> IP Whitelisting and OAuth 2.0 token enforcement are "Security" related NFRs and again
does not help in maintaining the "Quality of Service (QoS)". They CANNOT and are NOT
meant for protecting the backend systems from scalability challenges.
Rate Limiting, Rate Limiting-SLA, Throttling, Spike Control are the policies that are "Quality
of Service (QOS)" related NFRs and are meant to help in protecting the backend systems
from getting overloaded.

What is a key performance indicator (KPI) that measures the success of a typical C4E that is immediately apparent in responses from the Anypoint Platform APIs?


A.

The number of production outage incidents reported in the last 24 hours


B.

The number of API implementations that have a publicly accessible HTTP endpoint and are being managed by Anypoint Platform


C.

The fraction of API implementations deployed manually relative to those deployed using a CI/CD tool


D.

The number of API specifications in RAML or OAS format published to Anypoint
Exchange





D.
  

The number of API specifications in RAML or OAS format published to Anypoint
Exchange



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: The number of API specifications in RAML or OAS format published to
Anypoint Exchange
*****************************************
>> The success of C4E always depends on their contribution to the number of reusable
assets that they have helped to build and publish to Anypoint Exchange.
>> It is NOT due to any factors w.r.t # of outages, Manual vs CI/CD deployments or
Publicly accessible HTTP endpoints
>> Anypoint Platform APIs helps us to quickly run and get the number of published
RAML/OAS assets to Anypoint Exchange. This clearly depicts how successful a C4E team
is based on number of returned assets in the response.

An organization requires several APIs to be secured with OAuth 2.0, and PingFederate has been identified as the identity provider for API client authorization, The PingFederate Client Provider is configured in access management, and the PingFederate OAuth 2.0 Token Enforcement policy is configured for the API instances required by the organization. The API instances reside in two business groups (Group A and Group B) within the Master Organization (Master Org). What should be done to allow API consumers to access the API instances?


A. The API administrator should configure the correct client discovery URL in both child business groups, and the API consumer should request access to the API in Ping Identity


B. The API administrator should grant access to the API consumers by creating contracts in the relevant API instances in API Manager


C. The APL consumer should create a client application and request access to the APT in Anypoint Exchange, and the API administrator should approve the request


D. The APT consumer should create a client application and request access to the API in Ping Identity, and the organization's Ping Identity workflow will grant access





C.
  The APL consumer should create a client application and request access to the APT in Anypoint Exchange, and the API administrator should approve the request
