Question 102 - Certified MuleSoft Integration Architect I discussion

Report
Export

A global, high-volume shopping Mule application is being built and will be deployed to CloudHub. To improve performance, the Mule application uses a Cache scope that maintains cache state in a CloudHub object store. Web clients will access the Mule application over HTTP from all around the world, with peak volume coinciding with business hours in the web client's geographic location. To achieve optimal performance, what Anypoint Platform region should be chosen for the CloudHub object store?

A.
Choose the same region as to where the Mule application is deployed

Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

CloudHub object store should be in same region where the Mule application is deployed. This will give optimal performance.

Before learning about Cache scope and object store in Mule 4 we understand what is in general Caching is and other related things.

WHAT DOES ''CACHING'' MEAN?

Caching is the process of storing frequently used data in memory, file system or database which saves processing time and load if it would have to be accessed from original source location every time.

In computing, a cache is a high-speed data storage layer which stores a subset of data, so that future requests for that data are served up faster than is possible by accessing the data's primary storage location. Caching allows you to efficiently reuse previously retrieved or computed data.

How does Caching work?

The data in a cache is generally stored in fast access hardware such as RAM (Random-access memory) and may also be used in correlation with a software component. A cache's primary purpose is to increase data retrieval performance by reducing the need to access the underlying slower storage layer.

Caching in MULE 4

In Mule 4 caching can be achieved in mule using cache scope and/or object-store. Cache scope internally uses Object Store to store the data.

What is Object Store

Object Store lets applications store data and states across batch processes, Mule components, and applications, from within an application. If used on cloud hub, the object store is shared between applications deployed on Cluster.

Cache Scope is used in below-mentioned cases:

Need to store the whole response from the outbound processor

Data returned from the outbound processor does not change very frequently

As Cache scope internally handle the cache hit and cache miss scenarios it is more readable

Object Store is used in below-mentioned cases:

Need to store custom/intermediary data

To store watermarks

Sharing the data/stage across applications, schedulers, batch.

If CloudHub object store is in same region where the Mule application is deployed it will aid in fast access of data and give optimal performance.
