The application network is recomposable: it is built for change because it "bends but does
not break"


A.

TRUE


B.

FALSE





A.
  

TRUE



Explanation: *****************************************
>> Application Network is a disposable architecture.
>> Which means, it can be altered without disturbing entire architecture and its
components.
>> It bends as per requirements or design changes but does not break

Which APIs can be used with DataGraph to create a unified schema?


A. APIs 1, 3, 5


B. APIs 2, 4 ,6


C. APIs 1, 2, s5, 6


D. APIs 1, 2, 3, 4





D.
  APIs 1, 2, 3, 4

Explanation:
To create a unified schema in MuleSoft's DataGraph, APIs must be exposed in a way that allows DataGraph to pull and consolidate data from these APIs into a single schema accessible to consumers. DataGraph provides a federated approach, combining multiple APIs to form a single, unified API endpoint.
In this setup:
APIs 1, 2, 3, and 4 are suitable candidates for DataGraph because they are hosted within the Customer VPC on CloudHub and are accessible either through a Shared Load Balancer (LB) or a Dedicated Load Balancer (DLB). Both of these load balancers provide public access, which is a necessary condition for DataGraph as it must access the APIs to aggregate data.
APIs 5 and 6 are hosted on Customer Hosted Server 2, which is explicitly marked as "Not public". Since DataGraph requires API access through a publicly reachable endpoint to aggregate them into a unified schema, APIs 5 and 6 cannot be used with DataGraph in this configuration.
APIs 3 and 4 on Customer Hosted Server 1 appear accessible through a Shared LB, implying public accessibility that meets DataGraph’s requirements.
By combining APIs 1, 2, 3, and 4 within DataGraph, you can create a unified schema that enables clients to query data seamlessly from all these APIs as if it were from a single source.
This setup allows for efficient data retrieval and can simplify API consumption by reducing the need to call multiple APIs individually, thus optimizing performance and developer experience.

When could the API data model of a System API reasonably mimic the data model
exposed by the corresponding backend system, with minimal improvements over the
backend system's data model?


A.

When there is an existing Enterprise Data Model widely used across the organization


B.

When the System API can be assigned to a bounded context with a corresponding data
model


C.

When a pragmatic approach with only limited isolation from the backend system is deemed appropriate


D.

When the corresponding backend system is expected to be replaced in the near future





C.
  

When a pragmatic approach with only limited isolation from the backend system is deemed appropriate



Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: When a pragmatic approach with only limited isolation from the backend
system is deemed appropriate.
*****************************************
General guidance w.r.t choosing Data Models:
>> If an Enterprise Data Model is in use then the API data model of System APIs should
make use of data types from that Enterprise Data Model and the corresponding API
implementation should translate between these data types from the Enterprise Data Model
and the native data model of the backend system.
>> If no Enterprise Data Model is in use then each System API should be assigned to a
Bounded Context, the API data model of System APIs should make use of data types from
the corresponding Bounded Context Data Model and the corresponding API
implementation should translate between these data types from the Bounded Context Data
Model and the native data model of the backend system. In this scenario, the data types in
the Bounded Context Data Model are defined purely in terms of their business
characteristics and are typically not related to the native data model of the backend system.
In other words, the translation effort may be significant.
>> If no Enterprise Data Model is in use, and the definition of a clean Bounded Context
Data Model is considered too much effort, then the API data model of System APIs should
make use of data types that approximately mirror those from the backend system, same
semantics and naming as backend system, lightly sanitized, expose all fields needed for
the given System API’s functionality, but not significantly more and making good use of
REST conventions.
The latter approach, i.e., exposing in System APIs an API data model that basically mirrors
that of the backend system, does not provide satisfactory isolation from backend systems
through the System API tier on its own. In particular, it will typically not be possible to
"swap out" a backend system without significantly changing all System APIs in front of that
backend system and therefore the API implementations of all Process APIs that depend on
those System APIs! This is so because it is not desirable to prolong the life of a previous
backend system’s data model in the form of the API data model of System APIs that now
front a new backend system. The API data models of System APIs following this approach
must therefore change when the backend system is replaced.
On the other hand:
>> It is a very pragmatic approach that adds comparatively little overhead over accessing
the backend system directly
>> Isolates API clients from intricacies of the backend system outside the data model
(protocol, authentication, connection pooling, network address, …)
>> Allows the usual API policies to be applied to System APIs
>> Makes the API data model for interacting with the backend system explicit and visible,
by exposing it in the RAML definitions of the System APIs
>> Further isolation from the backend system data model does occur in the API

An organization requires several APIs to be secured with OAuth 2.0, and PingFederate has been identified as the identity provider for API client authorization, The PingFederate Client Provider is configured in access management, and the PingFederate OAuth 2.0 Token Enforcement policy is configured for the API instances required by the organization. The API instances reside in two business groups (Group A and Group B) within the Master Organization (Master Org). What should be done to allow API consumers to access the API instances?


A. The API administrator should configure the correct client discovery URL in both child business groups, and the API consumer should request access to the API in Ping Identity


B. The API administrator should grant access to the API consumers by creating contracts in the relevant API instances in API Manager


C. The APL consumer should create a client application and request access to the APT in Anypoint Exchange, and the API administrator should approve the request


D. The APT consumer should create a client application and request access to the API in Ping Identity, and the organization's Ping Identity workflow will grant access





C.
  The APL consumer should create a client application and request access to the APT in Anypoint Exchange, and the API administrator should approve the request

Mule applications that implement a number of REST APIs are deployed to their own subnet
that is inaccessible from outside the organization.
External business-partners need to access these APIs, which are only allowed to be
invoked from a separate subnet dedicated to partners - called Partner-subnet. This subnet
is accessible from the public internet, which allows these external partners to reach it.
Anypoint Platform and Mule runtimes are already deployed in Partner-subnet. These Mule
runtimes can already access the APIs.
What is the most resource-efficient solution to comply with these requirements, while
having the least impact on other applications that are currently using the APIs?


A.

Implement (or generate) an API proxy Mule application for each of the APIs, then deploy the API proxies to the Mule runtimes


B.

Redeploy the API implementations to the same servers running the Mule runtimes


C.

Add an additional endpoint to each API for partner-enablement consumption


D.

Duplicate the APIs as Mule applications, then deploy them to the Mule runtimes





A.
  

Implement (or generate) an API proxy Mule application for each of the APIs, then deploy the API proxies to the Mule runtimes

GET, PUT, OPTIONS


D.

GET, OPTIONS, HEAD





D.
