A company wants to move its Mule API implementations into production as quickly as
possible. To protect access to all Mule application data and metadata, the company
requires that all Mule applications be deployed to the company's customer-hosted
infrastructure within the corporate firewall. What combination of runtime plane and control
plane options meets these project lifecycle goals?


A.

Manually provisioned customer-hosted runtime plane and customer-hosted control plane


B.

MuleSoft-hosted runtime plane and customer-hosted control plane


C.

Manually provisioned customer-hosted runtime plane and MuleSoft-hosted control plane


D.

iPaaS provisioned customer-hosted runtime plane and MuleSoft-hosted control plane





A.
  

Manually provisioned customer-hosted runtime plane and customer-hosted control plane



Explanation:
Explanation
Correct Answer: Manually provisioned customer-hosted runtime plane and customerhosted
control plane
*****************************************
There are two key factors that are to be taken into consideration from the scenario given in
the question.
>> Company requires both data and metadata to be resided within the corporate firewall
>> Company would like to go with customer-hosted infrastructure.
Any deployment model that is to deal with the cloud directly or indirectly (Mulesoft-hosted
or Customer's own cloud like Azure, AWS) will have to share atleast the metadata.
Application data can be controlled inside firewall by having Mule Runtimes on customer
hosted runtime plane. But if we go with Mulsoft-hosted/ Cloud-based control plane, the
control plane required atleast some minimum level of metadata to be sent outside the
corporate firewall.
As the customer requirement is pretty clear about the data and metadata both to be within
the corporate firewall, even though customer wants to move to production as quickly as
possible, unfortunately due to the nature of their security requirements, they have no other
option but to go with manually provisioned customer-hosted runtime plane and customerhosted
control plane.

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.

What best describes the Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDNs), also known as DNS entries, created when a Mule application is deployed to the CloudHub Shared Worker Cloud?


A.

A fixed number of FQDNs are created, IRRESPECTIVE of the environment and VPC design


B.

The FQDNs are determined by the application name chosen, IRRESPECTIVE of the region


C.

The FQDNs are determined by the application name, but can be modified by an
administrator after deployment


D.

The FQDNs are determined by both the application name and the Anypoint Platform
organization





B.
  

The FQDNs are determined by the application name chosen, IRRESPECTIVE of the region



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: The FQDNs are determined by the application name chosen,
IRRESPECTIVE of the region
*****************************************
>> When deploying applications to Shared Worker Cloud, the FQDN are always
determined by application name chosen.
>> It does NOT matter what region the app is being deployed to.
>> Although it is fact and true that the generated FQDN will have the region included in it
(Ex: exp-salesorder-api.au-s1.cloudhub.io), it does NOT mean that the same name can be
used when deploying to another CloudHub region.
>> Application name should be universally unique irrespective of Region and Organization
and solely determines the FQDN for Shared Load Balancers

To minimize operation costs, a customer wants to use a CloudHub 1.0 solution. The customer's requirements are:

  • Separate resources with two Business groups
  • High-availability (HA) for all APIs
  • Route traffic via Dedicated load balancer (DLBs)
  • Separate environments into production and non-production
Which solution meets the customer's needs?


A. One production and one non-production Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).
Use availability zones to differentiate between Business groups.
Allocate maximum CIDR per VPCs to ensure HA across availability zones


B. One production and one non-production Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) per Business group.
Minimize CIDR aligning with projected application total.
Choose a MuleSoft CloudHub 1.0 region with multiple availability zones.
Deploy multiple workers for HA,


C. One production and one non-production Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) per Business group.
Minimize CIDR aligning with projected application total.
Divide availability zones during deployment of APIs for HA.


D. One production and one non-production Virtual Private Claud (VPC).
Configure subnet to differentiate between business groups.
Allocate maximum CIDR per VPCs to make it easier to add Child groups.
Span VPC to cover three availability zones.





B.
  One production and one non-production Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) per Business group.
Minimize CIDR aligning with projected application total.
Choose a MuleSoft CloudHub 1.0 region with multiple availability zones.
Deploy multiple workers for HA,

An auto manufacturer has a mature CI/CD practice and wants to automate packaging and deployment of any Mule applications to various deployment targets, including CloudHub workers/replicas, customer-hosted Mule runtimes, and Anypoint Runtime Fabric.
