What correctly characterizes unit tests of Mule applications?

A.

They test the validity of input and output of source and target systems

B.

They must be run in a unit testing environment with dedicated Mule runtimes for the environment

C.

They must be triggered by an external client tool or event source

D.

They are typically written using MUnit to run in an embedded Mule runtime that does not require external connectivity

An API has been updated in Anypoint exchange by its API producer from version 3.1.1 to
3.2.0 following accepted semantic versioning practices and the changes have been
communicated via the APIs public portal. The API endpoint does NOT change in the new
version. How should the developer of an API client respond to this change?

A.

The API producer should be requested to run the old version in parallel with the new one

B.

The API producer should be contacted to understand the change to existing functionality

C.

The API client code only needs to be changed if it needs to take advantage of the new features

D.

The API clients need to update the code on their side and need to do full regression

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

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

Select the correct Owner-Layer combinations from below options

A.

1. App Developers owns and focuses on Experience Layer APIs
2. Central IT owns and focuses on Process Layer APIs
3. LOB IT owns and focuses on System Layer APIs

B.

1. Central IT owns and focuses on Experience Layer APIs
2. LOB IT owns and focuses on Process Layer APIs
3. App Developers owns and focuses on System Layer APIs

C.

1. App Developers owns and focuses on Experience Layer APIs
2. LOB IT owns and focuses on Process Layer APIs
3. Central IT owns and focuses on System Layer APIs

An Order API triggers a sequence of other API calls to look up details of an order's items in a back-end inventory database. The Order API calls the OrderItems process API, which calls the Inventory system API. The Inventory system API performs database operations in the back-end inventory database.
The network connection between the Inventory system API and the database is known to be unreliable and hang at unpredictable times.
Where should a two-second timeout be configured in the API processing sequence so that the Order API never waits more than two seconds for a response from the Orderltems process API?

A. In the Orderltems process API implementation

B. In the Order API implementation

C. In the Inventory system API implementation

D. In the inventory database

A Mule application exposes an HTTPS endpoint and is deployed to the CloudHub Shared Worker Cloud. All traffic to that Mule application must stay inside the AWS VPC. To what TCP port do API invocations to that Mule application need to be sent?

A.

443

B.

8081

C.

8091

D.

8082

An application updates an inventory running only one process at any given time to keep the inventory consistent. This process takes 200 milliseconds (.2 seconds) to execute; therefore, the scalability threshold of the application is five requests per second. What is the impact on the application if horizontal scaling is applied, thereby increasing the number of Mule workers?

A. The application scalability threshold is five requests per second regardless of the horizontal scaling

B. The total process execution time is now 100 milliseconds (.1 seconds)

C. The application scalability threshold is now 10 requests per second

D. Horizontal scaling cannot be applied to an already-running application
