How are an API implementation, API client, and API consumer combined to invoke and process an API?


A.

The API consumer creates an API implementation, which receives API invocations from
an API such that they are processed for an API client


B.

The API client creates an API consumer, which receives API invocations from an API such that they are processed for an API implementation


C.

The ApI consumer creates an API client, which sends API invocations to an API such that they are processed by an API implementation


D.

The ApI client creates an API consumer, which sends API invocations to an API such that they are processed by an API implementation





C.
  

The ApI consumer creates an API client, which sends API invocations to an API such that they are processed by an API implementation



Explanation:
Explanation
Correct Answer: The API consumer creates an API client, which sends API invocations to
an API such that they are processed by an API implementation
*****************************************
Terminology:
>> API Client - It is a piece of code or program the is written to invoke an API
>> API Consumer - An owner/entity who owns the API Client. API Consumers write API
clients.
>> API - The provider of the API functionality. Typically an API Instance on API Manager
where they are managed and operated.
>> API Implementation - The actual piece of code written by API provider where the
functionality of the API is implemented. Typically, these are Mule Applications running on
Runtime Manager.

A company deployed an API to a single worker/replica in the shared cloud in the U.S. West Region. What happens when the Availability Zone experiences an outage?


A. CloudHub will auto-redeploy the APL in the U.S. East Region


B. The APT will be unavailable until the availability comes back online, at which time the worker/replica will be auto-restarted


C. CloudHub will auto-redeploy the API in another Availability Zone in the U.S. West Region


D. The Anypoint Platform admin is alerted when the AP] is experiencing an outage and needs the trigger the CI/CD pipeline to redeploy to the US. East Region





B.
  The APT will be unavailable until the availability comes back online, at which time the worker/replica will be auto-restarted

Explanation:
In a CloudHub deployment with a single worker/replica located in a specific Availability Zone (AZ), if an AZ experiences an outage, here’s what happens:
Worker Availability: Since the application is deployed in a single AZ, CloudHub does not automatically redeploy the application in a different zone or region during an outage. Thus, if the current AZ is unavailable, the application will be offline.
Auto-Restart upon AZ Recovery: Once the affected AZ is back online, CloudHub will auto-restart the worker in the same AZ without manual intervention. This ensures that as soon as the AZ is functional, the application resumes automatically.

Which statement is true about Spike Control policy and Rate Limiting policy?


A. All requests are rejected after the limit is reached in Rate Limiting policy, whereas the requests are queued in Spike Control policy after the limit is reached


B. In a clustered environment, the Rate Limiting.and Spike Control policies are applied to each node in the cluster


C. To protect Experience APIs by limiting resource consumption, Rate Limiting policy must be applied


D. In order to apply Rate Limiting and Spike Control policies, a contract to bind client application and API is needed for both





B.
  In a clustered environment, the Rate Limiting.and Spike Control policies are applied to each node in the cluster

A company uses a hybrid Anypoint Platform deployment model that combines the EU
control plane with customer-hosted Mule runtimes. After successfully testing a Mule API
implementation in the Staging environment, the Mule API implementation is set with
environment-specific properties and must be promoted to the Production environment.
What is a way that MuleSoft recommends to configure the Mule API implementation and
automate its promotion to the Production environment?


A.

Bundle properties files for each environment into the Mule API implementation's deployable
archive, then promote the Mule API implementation to the Production environment using
Anypoint CLI or the Anypoint Platform REST APIsB.


B.

Modify the Mule API implementation's properties in the API Manager Properties tab, then
promote the Mule API implementation to the Production environment using API Manager


C.

Modify the Mule API implementation's properties in Anypoint Exchange, then promote the
Mule API implementation to the Production environment using Runtime Manager


D.

Use an API policy to change properties in the Mule API implementation deployed to the
Staging environment and another API policy to deploy the Mule API implementation to the
Production environment





A.
  

Bundle properties files for each environment into the Mule API implementation's deployable
archive, then promote the Mule API implementation to the Production environment using
Anypoint CLI or the Anypoint Platform REST APIsB.



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: Bundle properties files for each environment into the Mule API
implementation's deployable archive, then promote the Mule API implementation to the
Production environment using Anypoint CLI or the Anypoint Platform REST APIs
*****************************************
>> Anypoint Exchange is for asset discovery and documentation. It has got no provision to
modify the properties of Mule API implementations at all.
>> API Manager is for managing API instances, their contracts, policies and SLAs. It has
also got no provision to modify the properties of API implementations.
>> API policies are to address Non-functional requirements of APIs and has again got no
provision to modify the properties of API implementations.
So, the right way and recommended way to do this as part of development practice is to
bundle properties files for each environment into the Mule API implementation and just
point and refer to respective file per environment.

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

When can CloudHub Object Store v2 be used?


A. To store an unlimited number of key-value pairs


B. To store payloads with an average size greater than 15MB


C. To store information in Mule 4 Object Store v1


D. To store key-value pairs with keys up to 300 characters





D.
  To store key-value pairs with keys up to 300 characters

Explanation: CloudHub Object Store v2 is a managed key-value store provided by MuleSoft to support various use cases where temporary data storage is required. Here’s why Option D is correct:
Key Length Support: Object Store v2 allows storage of keys with a length of up to 300 characters, making it suitable for applications needing flexible and descriptive keys.
Limitations on Size:
Key-Value Limits: Object Store v2 is designed for moderate, transient storage needs, and does not support unlimited storage. Thus, Option A is incorrect.
Backward Compatibility: Object Store v2 does not support Mule 4 applications running Object Store v1. Option C is incorrect as Object Store v1 and v2 are distinct.
