Which two statements are true about the technology architecture of an Anypoint Virtual
Private Cloud (VPC)?
(Choose 2 answers)
A. Ports 8081 and 8082 are used
B. CIDR blacks are used
C. Anypoint VPC is responsible for load balancing the applications
D. Round-robin load balancing is used to distribute client requests across different applications
E. By default, HTTP requests can be made from the public internet to workers at port 6091
Explanation:
An Anypoint Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) provides a secure and private
networking environment for MuleSoft applications, using specific architectural elements:
When designing an upstream API and its implementation, the development team has been
advised to NOT set timeouts when invoking a downstream API, because that downstream
API has no SLA that can be relied upon. This is the only downstream API dependency of
that upstream API.
Assume the downstream API runs uninterrupted without crashing. What is the impact of
this advice?
A.
An SLA for the upstream API CANNOT be provided
B.
The invocation of the downstream API will run to completion without timing out
C.
A default timeout of 500 ms will automatically be applied by the Mule runtime in which the upstream API implementation executes
D.
A toad-dependent timeout of less than 1000 ms will be applied by the Mule runtime in
which the downstream API implementation executes
An SLA for the upstream API CANNOT be provided
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: An SLA for the upstream API CANNOT be provided.
*****************************************
>> First thing first, the default HTTP response timeout for HTTP connector is 10000 ms (10
seconds). NOT 500 ms.
>> Mule runtime does NOT apply any such "load-dependent" timeouts. There is no such
behavior currently in Mule.
>> As there is default 10000 ms time out for HTTP connector, we CANNOT always
guarantee that the invocation of the downstream API will run to completion without timing
out due to its unreliable SLA times. If the response time crosses 10 seconds then the
request may time out.
The main impact due to this is that a proper SLA for the upstream API CANNOT be
provided.

What API policy would LEAST likely be applied to a Process API?
A.
Custom circuit breaker
B.
Client ID enforcement
C.
Rate limiting
D.
JSON threat protection
JSON threat protection
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: JSON threat protection
*****************************************
Fact: Technically, there are no restrictions on what policy can be applied in what layer. Any
policy can be applied on any layer API. However, context should also be considered
properly before blindly applying the policies on APIs.
That is why, this question asked for a policy that would LEAST likely be applied to a
Process API.
From the given options:
>> All policies except "JSON threat protection" can be applied without hesitation to the
APIs in Process tier.
>> JSON threat protection policy ideally fits for experience APIs to prevent suspicious
JSON payload coming from external API clients. This covers more of a security aspect by
trying to avoid possibly malicious and harmful JSON payloads from external clients calling
experience APIs.
As external API clients are NEVER allowed to call Process APIs directly and also these
kind of malicious and harmful JSON payloads are always stopped at experience API layer
only using this policy, it is LEAST LIKELY that this same policy is again applied on Process
Layer API.

A.
Option A
B.
Option B
C.
Option C
D.
Option D
Option A
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: Option A
*****************************************
>> Anypoint API Manager and API policies are applicable to all types of HTTP/1.x APIs.
>> They are not applicable to WebSocket APIs, HTTP/2 APIs and gRPC APIs

An online store's marketing team has noticed an increase in customers leaving online baskets without checking out. They suspect a technology issue is at the root cause of the baskets being left behind. They approach the Center for Enablement to ask for help identifying the issue. Multiple APIs from across all the layers of their application network are involved in the shopping application. Which feature of the Anypoint Platform can be used to view metrics from all involved APIs at the same time?
A. Custom dashboards
B. Built-in dashboards
C. Functional monitoring
D. API Manager
A company is building an application network using MuleSoft's recommendations for various API layers. What is the main (default) role of a process API in an application network?
A. To secure and optimize the data synchronization processing of large data dumps between back-end systems
B. To manage and process the secure direct communication between a back-end system and an end-user client of mobile device in the application network
C. To automate parts of business processes by coordinating and orchestrating the invocation of other APIs in the application network
D. To secure, Manage, and process communication with specific types of end-user client applications or devices in the application network
Explanation:
An organization makes a strategic decision to move towards an IT operating model that emphasizes consumption of reusable IT assets using modern APIs (as defined by MuleSoft). What best describes each modern API in relation to this new IT operating model?
A.
Each modern API has its own software development lifecycle, which reduces the need for documentation and automation
B.
Each modem API must be treated like a product and designed for a particular target audience (for instance, mobile app developers)
C.
Each modern API must be easy to consume, so should avoid complex authentication mechanisms such as SAML or JWT D
D.
Each modern API must be REST and HTTP based
Each modem API must be treated like a product and designed for a particular target audience (for instance, mobile app developers)
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answers:
1. Each modern API must be treated like a product and designed for a particular target
audience (for instance mobile app developers)

What is true about the technology architecture of Anypoint VPCs?
A.
The private IP address range of an Anypoint VPC is automatically chosen by CloudHub
B.
Traffic between Mule applications deployed to an Anypoint VPC and on-premises
systems can stay within a private network
C.
Each CloudHub environment requires a separate Anypoint VPC
D.
VPC peering can be used to link the underlying AWS VPC to an on-premises (non
AWS) private network
Traffic between Mule applications deployed to an Anypoint VPC and on-premises
systems can stay within a private network
Explanation: Explanation
Correct Answer: Traffic between Mule applications deployed to an Anypoint VPC and onpremises
systems can stay within a private network
*****************************************
>> The private IP address range of an Anypoint VPC is NOT automatically chosen by
CloudHub. It is chosen by us at the time of creating VPC using thr CIDR blocks.
CIDR Block: The size of the Anypoint VPC in Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR)
notation.
For example, if you set it to 10.111.0.0/24, the Anypoint VPC is granted 256 IP addresses
from 10.111.0.0 to 10.111.0.255.
Ideally, the CIDR Blocks you choose for the Anypoint VPC come from a private IP space,
and should not overlap with any other Anypoint VPC’s CIDR Blocks, or any CIDR Blocks in
use in your corporate network.
