They must ensure ALL data is encrypted both in transit and at rest

QUESTION 13
Refer to the exhibit.

Three business processes need to be implemented, and the implementations need to communicate with several different SaaS applications.
These processes are owned by separate (siloed) LOBs and are mainly independent of each other, but do share a few business entities. Each LOB has one development team and their own budget In this organizational context, what is the most effective approach to choose the API data models for the APIs that will implement these business processes with minimal redundancy of the data models?
A) Build several Bounded Context Data Models that align with coherent parts of the business processes and the definitions of associated business entities

B) Build distinct data models for each API to follow established micro-services and Agile API-centric practices

C) Build all API data models using XML schema to drive consistency and reuse across the organization

D) Build one centralized Canonical Data Model (Enterprise Data Model) that unifies all the data types from all three business processes, ensuring the data model is consistent and non-redundant

Option B

Option C

Option D

QUESTION 14
When must an API implementation be deployed to an Anypoint VPC?

When the API Implementation must invoke publicly exposed services that are deployed outside of CloudHub in a customer- managed AWS instance

When the API implementation must be deployed to a production AWS VPC using the Mule Maven plugin

When the API Implementation must write to a persistent Object Store

QUESTION 15
An API implementation is deployed on a single worker on CloudHub and invoked by external API clients (outside of CloudHub). How can an alert be set up that is guaranteed to trigger AS SOON AS that API implementation stops responding to API invocations?

Implement a heartbeat/health check within the API and invoke it from outside the Anypoint Platform and alert when the heartbeat does not respond

Configure a “worker not responding” alert in Anypoint Runtime Manager

Handle API invocation exceptions within the calling API client and raise an alert from that API client when the API Is unavailable

Create an alert for when the API receives no requests within a specified time period

QUESTION 16
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?

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.

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

Modify the Mule API implementation’s properties in Anypoint Exchange, then promote the Mule API implementation to the Production environment using Runtime Manager

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

QUESTION 17
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?

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

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

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

QUESTION 20
What is a key requirement when using an external Identity Provider for Client Management in Anypoint Platform?

To invoke OAuth 2.0-protected APIs managed by Anypoint Platform, API clients must submit access tokens issued by that same Identity Provider

APIs managed by Anypoint Platform must be protected by SAML 2.0 policies

QUESTION 21
An API experiences a high rate of client requests (TPS) vwth small message paytoads. How can usage limits be imposed on the API based on the type of client application?

Use a spike control policy that limits the number of requests for each client application type

Use a cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) policy to limit resource sharing between client applications, configured by the client application type

Use a rate limiting policy and a client ID enforcement policy, each configured by the client application type

QUESTION 22
What Mule application deployment scenario requires using Anypoint Platform Private Cloud Edition or Anypoint Platform for Pivotal Cloud Foundry?

When it Is required to make ALL applications highly available across multiple data centers

When it is required that ALL APIs are private and NOT exposed to the public cloud

When regulatory requirements mandate on-premises processing of EVERY data item, including meta-data

When ALL backend systems in the application network are deployed in the organization’s intranet

QUESTION 23
What is typically NOT a function of the APIs created within the framework called API-led connectivity?

They provide an additional layer of resilience on top of the underlying backend system, thereby insulating clients from extended failure of these systems.

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.

They reduce the dependency on the underlying backend systems by helping unlock data from backend systems In a reusable and consumable way.

They can compose data from various sources and combine them with orchestration logic to create higher level value.

QUESTION 24
What is a typical result of using a fine-grained rather than a coarse-grained API deployment model to implement a given business process?

A decrease in the number of connections within the application network supporting the business process

A higher number of discoverable API-related assets in the application network

A better response time for the end user as a result of the APIs being smaller in scope and complexity

An overall tower usage of resources because each fine-grained API consumes less resources
