What is typically NOT a function of the APIs created within the framework called API-led connectivity?
A.
They provide an additional layer of resilience on top of the underlying backend system,
thereby insulating clients from extended failure of these systems.
B.
They allow for innovation at the user Interface level by consuming the underlying assets
without being aware of how data Is being extracted from backend systems.
C.
They reduce the dependency on the underlying backend systems by helping unlock data
from backend systems In a reusable and consumable way.
D.
They can compose data from various sources and combine them with orchestration logic to create higher level value.
They provide an additional layer of resilience on top of the underlying backend system,
thereby insulating clients from extended failure of these systems.
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: They provide an additional layer of resilience on top of the underlying
backend system, thereby insulating clients from extended failure of these systems.
*****************************************
In API-led connectivity,
>> Experience APIs - allow for innovation at the user interface level by consuming the
underlying assets without being aware of how data is being extracted from backend
systems.
>> Process APIs - compose data from various sources and combine them with
orchestration logic to create higher level value
>> System APIs - reduce the dependency on the underlying backend systems by helping
unlock data from backend systems in a reusable and consumable way.
However, they NEVER promise that they provide an additional layer of resilience on top of
the underlying backend system, thereby insulating clients from extended failure of these
systems.

The implementation of a Process API must change.What is a valid approach that minimizes the impact of this change on API clients?
A.
Update the RAML definition of the current Process API and notify API client developers
by sending them links to the updated RAML definition
B.
Postpone changes until API consumers acknowledge they are ready to migrate to a new
Process API or API version
C.
Implement required changes to the Process API implementation so that whenever
possible, the Process API's RAML definition remains unchanged
D.
Implement the Process API changes in a new API implementation, and have the old API
implementation return an HTTP status code 301 - Moved Permanently to inform API clients
they should be calling the new API implementation
Implement required changes to the Process API implementation so that whenever
possible, the Process API's RAML definition remains unchanged
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: Implement required changes to the Process API implementation so that,
whenever possible, the Process API’s RAML definition remains unchanged.
*****************************************
Key requirement in the question is:
>> Approach that minimizes the impact of this change on API clients
Based on above:
>> Updating the RAML definition would possibly impact the API clients if the changes
require any thing mandatory from client side. So, one should try to avoid doing that until
really necessary.
>> Implementing the changes as a completely different API and then redirectly the clients
with 3xx status code is really upsetting design and heavily impacts the API clients.
>> Organisations and IT cannot simply postpone the changes required until all API
consumers acknowledge they are ready to migrate to a new Process API or API version.
This is unrealistic and not possible.
The best way to handle the changes always is to implement required changes to the API
implementations so that, whenever possible, the API’s RAML definition remains
unchanged.
A code-centric API documentation environment should allow API consumers to investigate and execute API client source code that demonstrates invoking one or more APIs as part of representative scenarios. What is the most effective way to provide this type of code-centric API documentation environment using Anypoint Platform?
A. Enable mocking services for each of the relevant APIs and expose them via their Anypoint Exchange entry
B. Ensure the APIs are well documented through their Anypoint Exchange entries and API Consoles and share these pages with all API consumers
C. Create API Notebooks and include them in the relevant Anypoint Exchange entries
D. Make relevant APIs discoverable via an Anypoint Exchange entry
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: Create API Notebooks and Include them in the relevant Anypoint
exchange entries
*****************************************
>> API Notebooks are the one on Anypoint Platform that enable us to provide code-centric
API documentation

A Mule application implements an API. The Mule application has an HTTP Listener whose connector configuration sets the HTTPS protocol and hard-codes the port value. The Mule application is deployed to an Anypoint VPC and uses the CloudHub 1.0 Shared Load Balancer (SLB) for all incoming traffic. Which port number must be assigned to the HTTP Listener's connector configuration so that the Mule application properly receives HTTPS API invocations routed through the SLB?
A. 8082
B. 8092
C. 80
D. 443
Explanation:
When using CloudHub 1.0’s Shared Load Balancer (SLB) for a Mule
application configured with HTTPS in an Anypoint VPC, specific ports must be configured
for the application to correctly route incoming traffic:
What is a best practice when building System APIs?
A.
Document the API using an easily consumable asset like a RAML definition
B.
Model all API resources and methods to closely mimic the operations of the backend system
C.
Build an Enterprise Data Model (Canonical Data Model) for each backend system and apply it to System APIs
D.
Expose to API clients all technical details of the API implementation's interaction wifch
the backend system
Model all API resources and methods to closely mimic the operations of the backend system
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: Model all API resources and methods to closely mimic the operations of
the backend system.
*****************************************
>> There are NO fixed and straight best practices while opting data models for APIs. They
are completly contextual and depends on number of factors. Based upon those factors, an
enterprise can choose if they have to go with Enterprise Canonical Data Model or Bounded
Context Model etc.
>> One should NEVER expose the technical details of API implementation to their API
clients. Only the API interface/ RAML is exposed to API clients.
>> It is true that the RAML definitions of APIs should be as detailed as possible and should
reflect most of the documentation. However, just that is NOT enough to call your API as
best documented API. There should be even more documentation on Anypoint Exchange
with API Notebooks etc. to make and create a developer friendly API and repository..
>> The best practice always when creating System APIs is to create their API interfaces by
modeling their resources and methods to closely reflect the operations and functionalities
of that backend system.
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
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.

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
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.
What is true about automating interactions with Anypoint Platform using tools such as Anypoint Platform REST APIs, Anypoint CU, or the Mule Maven plugin?
A.
Access to Anypoint Platform APIs and Anypoint CU can be controlled separately through the roles and permissions in Anypoint Platform, so that specific users can get access to Anypoint CLI white others get access to the platform APIs
B.
Anypoint Platform APIs can ONLY automate interactions with CloudHub, while the Mule Maven plugin is required for deployment to customer-hosted Mule runtimes
C.
By default, the Anypoint CLI and Mule Maven plugin are NOT included in the Mule runtime, so are NOT available to be used by deployed Mule applications
D.
API policies can be applied to the Anypoint Platform APIs so that ONLY certain LOBs have access to specific functions
By default, the Anypoint CLI and Mule Maven plugin are NOT included in the Mule runtime, so are NOT available to be used by deployed Mule applications
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: By default, the Anypoint CLI and Mule Maven plugin are NOT included in
the Mule runtime, so are NOT available to be used by deployed Mule applications
*****************************************
>> We CANNOT apply API policies to the Anypoint Platform APIs like we can do on our
custom written API instances. So, option suggesting this is FALSE.
>> Anypoint Platform APIs can be used for automating interactions with both CloudHub
and customer-hosted Mule runtimes. Not JUST the CloudHub. So, option opposing this is
FALSE.
>> Mule Maven plugin is NOT mandatory for deployment to customer-hosted Mule
runtimes. It just helps your CI/CD to have smoother automation. But not a compulsory
requirement to deploy. So, option opposing this is FALSE.
>> We DO NOT have any such special roles and permissions on the platform to separately
control access for some users to have Anypoint CLI and others to have Anypoint Platform
APIs. With proper general roles/permissions (API Owner, Cloudhub Admin etc..), one can
use any of the options (Anypoint CLI or Platform APIs). So, option suggesting this is
FALSE.
Only TRUE statement given in the choices is that - Anypoint CLI and Mule Maven plugin
are NOT included in the Mule runtime, so are NOT available to be used by deployed Mule
applications.
Maven is part of Studio or you can use other Maven installation for development.
CLI is convenience only. It is one of many ways how to install app to the runtime.
These are definitely NOT part of anything except your process of deployment or
automation.
