what is true when using customer-hosted Mule runtimes with the MuleSoft-hosted Anypoint Platform control plane (hybrid deployment)?


A.

Anypoint Runtime Manager initiates a network connection to a Mule runtime in order to deploy Mule applications


B.

The MuleSoft-hosted Shared Load Balancer can be used to load balance API
invocations to the Mule runtimes


C.

API implementations can run successfully in customer-hosted Mule runtimes, even when they are unable to communicate with the control plane


D.

Anypoint Runtime Manager automatically ensures HA in the control plane by creating a new Mule runtime instance in case of a node failure





C.
  

API implementations can run successfully in customer-hosted Mule runtimes, even when they are unable to communicate with the control plane



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: API implementations can run successfully in customer-hosted Mule
runtimes, even when they are unable to communicate with the control plane.
*****************************************
>> We CANNOT use Shared Load balancer to load balance APIs on customer hosted
runtimes

An organization has several APIs that accept JSON data over HTTP POST. The APIs are
all publicly available and are associated with several mobile applications and web
applications.
The organization does NOT want to use any authentication or compliance policies for these
APIs, but at the same time, is worried that some bad actor could send payloads that could
somehow compromise the applications or servers running the API implementations.
What out-of-the-box Anypoint Platform policy can address exposure to this threat?


A.

Shut out bad actors by using HTTPS mutual authentication for all API invocations


B.

Apply an IP blacklist policy to all APIs; the blacklist will Include all bad actors


C.

Apply a Header injection and removal policy that detects the malicious data before it is used


D.

Apply a JSON threat protection policy to all APIs to detect potential threat vectors





D.
  

Apply a JSON threat protection policy to all APIs to detect potential threat vectors



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: Apply a JSON threat protection policy to all APIs to detect potential threat
vectors
*****************************************
>> Usually, if the APIs are designed and developed for specific consumers (known
consumers/customers) then we would IP Whitelist the same to ensure that traffic only
comes from them.
>> However, as this scenario states that the APIs are publicly available and being used by
so many mobile and web applications, it is NOT possible to identify and blacklist all
possible bad actors.
>> So, JSON threat protection policy is the best chance to prevent any bad JSON payloads
from such bad actors.

An existing Quoting API is defined in RAML and used by REST clients for interacting with the quoting engine. Currently there is a resource defined in the RAML that allows the creation of quotes; however, a new requirement was just received to allow for the updating of existing quotes. Which two actions need to be taken to facilitate this change so it can be processed? (Choose 2 answers)


A. Update the API implementation to accommodate the new update request


B. B. Remove the old client applications and create new client applications to account for the changes


C. Update the RAML with new method details for the update request


D. Deprecate existing versions of the API in Exchange


E. Add a new API policy to API Manager to allow access to the updated endpoint





A.
  Update the API implementation to accommodate the new update request

C.
  Update the RAML with new method details for the update request

Explanation:
To accommodate the new requirement of allowing updates to existing quotes, the following actions should be taken:

  • Update the RAML Definition (Option C):
  • Update the API Implementation (Option A):
  • Explanation of Incorrect Options:

Refer to the exhibit.


What is the best way to decompose one end-to-end business process into a collaboration of Experience, Process, and System APIs?
A) Handle customizations for the end-user application at the Process API level rather than the Experience API level
B) Allow System APIs to return data that is NOT currently required by the identified Process or Experience APIs
C) Always use a tiered approach by creating exactly one API for each of the 3 layers (Experience, Process and System APIs)
D) Use a Process API to orchestrate calls to multiple System APIs, but NOT to other Process APIs


A. Option A


B. Option B


C. Option C


D. Option D





B.
  Option B

Explanation:
Correct Answer: Allow System APIs to return data that is NOT currently required by the identified Process or Experience APIs.

  • All customizations for the end-user application should be handled in "Experience API" only. Not in Process API
  • We should use tiered approach but NOT always by creating exactly one API for each of the 3 layers. Experience APIs might be one but Process APIs and System APIs are often more than one. System APIs for sure will be more than one all the time as they are the smallest modular APIs built in front of end systems.
  • Process APIs can call System APIs as well as other Process APIs. There is no such anti-design pattern in API-Led connectivity saying Process APIs should not call other Process APIs.
So, the right answer in the given set of options that makes sense as per API-Led connectivity principles is to allow System APIs to return data that is NOT currently required by the identified Process or Experience APIs. This way, some future Process APIs can make use of that data from System APIs and we need NOT touch the System layer APIs again and again.

The responses to some HTTP requests can be cached depending on the HTTP verb used
in the request. According to the HTTP specification, for what HTTP verbs is this safe to do?


A.

PUT, POST, DELETE


B.

GET, HEAD, POST


C.

GET, PUT, OPTIONS


D.

GET, OPTIONS, HEAD





D.
  

GET, OPTIONS, HEAD



The application network is recomposable: it is built for change because it "bends but does
not break"


A.

TRUE


B.

FALSE





A.
  

TRUE



Explanation: *****************************************
>> Application Network is a disposable architecture.
>> Which means, it can be altered without disturbing entire architecture and its
components.
>> It bends as per requirements or design changes but does not break

A manufacturing company has deployed an API implementation to CloudHub and has not configured it to be automatically restarted by CloudHub when the worker is not responding. Which statement is true when no API Client invokes that API implementation?


A. No alert on the API invocations and APT implementation can be raised


B. Alerts on the APT invocation and API implementation can be raised


C. No alert on the API invocations is raised but alerts on the API implementation can be raised


D. Alerts on the API invocations are raised but no alerts on the API implementation can be raised





C.
  No alert on the API invocations is raised but alerts on the API implementation can be raised

Explanation:
When an API implementation is deployed on CloudHub without configuring automatic restarts in case of worker non-responsiveness, MuleSoft’s monitoring and alerting behavior is as follows:

  • API Invocation Alerts:
  • Implementation-Level Alerts:
  • Why Option C is Correct:
