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

Which layer in the API-led connectivity focuses on unlocking key systems, legacy systems, data sources etc and exposes the functionality?


A.

Experience Layer


B.

Process Layer


C.

System Layer





C.
  

System Layer



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: System Layer

Which component monitors APIs and endpoints at scheduled intervals, receives reports about whether tests pass or fail, and displays statistics about API and endpoint performance?


A. API Analytics


B. Anypoint Monitoring dashboards


C. APT Functional Monitoring


D. Anypoint Runtime Manager alerts





C.
  APT Functional Monitoring

Explanation:

  • Understanding API Functional Monitoring:
  • Component Features:
  • Evaluating the Options:
Conclusion:
Refer to MuleSoft documentation on API Functional Monitoring for further guidance on setting up and configuring these tests in Anypoint Platform.

An API implementation is being designed that must invoke an Order API, which is known to
repeatedly experience downtime.
For this reason, a fallback API is to be called when the Order API is unavailable.
What approach to designing the invocation of the fallback API provides the best resilience?


A.

Search Anypoint Exchange for a suitable existing fallback API, and then implement
invocations to this fallback API in addition to the Order API


B.

Create a separate entry for the Order API in API Manager, and then invoke this API as a
fallback API if the primary Order API is unavailable


C.

Redirect client requests through an HTTP 307 Temporary Redirect status code to the
fallback API whenever the Order API is unavailable


D.

Set an option in the HTTP Requester component that invokes the Order API to instead
invoke a fallback API whenever an HTTP 4xx or 5xx response status code is returned from
the Order API





A.
  

Search Anypoint Exchange for a suitable existing fallback API, and then implement
invocations to this fallback API in addition to the Order API



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: Search Anypoint exchange for a suitable existing fallback API, and then
implement invocations to this fallback API in addition to the order API
*****************************************
>> It is not ideal and good approach, until unless there is a pre-approved agreement with
the API clients that they will receive a HTTP 3xx temporary redirect status code and they
have to implement fallback logic their side to call another API.
>> Creating separate entry of same Order API in API manager would just create an
another instance of it on top of same API implementation. So, it does NO GOOD by using
clone od same API as a fallback API. Fallback API should be ideally a different API
implementation that is not same as primary one.
>> There is NO option currently provided by Anypoint HTTP Connector that allows us to
invoke a fallback API when we receive certain HTTP status codes in response.
The only statement TRUE in the given options is to Search Anypoint exchange for a
suitable existing fallback API, and then implement invocations to this fallback API in
addition to the order API.

Refer to the exhibit.

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
