Salesforce Certified MuleSoft Integration Architect I Practice Test - Questions Answers, Page 8

Correct answer is: Add a Mulesoft hosted Anypoint VPC configured and with VPC Peering to the AWS VPC * Connecting to your Anypoint VPC extends your corporate network and allows CloudHub workers to access resources behind your corporate firewall.

* You can connect on-premises data centers through a secured VPN tunnel, or a private AWS VPC through VPC peering, or by using AWS Direct Connect.

When an operation in a Mule application fails to connect to an external server, the default behavior is for the operation to fail immediately and return a connectivity error. You can modify this default behavior by configuring a reconnection strategy for the operation. You can configure a reconnection strategy for an operation either by modifying the operation properties or by modifying the configuration of the global element for the operation. The following are the available reconnection strategies and their behaviors: None Is the default behavior, which immediately returns a connectivity error if the attempt to connect is unsuccessful Standard (reconnect) Sets the number of reconnection attempts and the interval at which to execute them before returning a connectivity error Forever (reconnect-forever) Attempts to reconnect continually at a given interval



* The Object Store V2 API enables API access to Anypoint Platform Object Store v2.

* You can configure a Mule app to use the Object Store REST API to store and retrieve values from an object store in another Mule app. However, Object Store v2 is not designed for app-to-app communication. To share data between two Mule4 apps, use a queue in Anypoint MQ.

* The Object Store v2 APIs enable you to use REST to perform the following:

- Retrieve a list of object stores and keys associated with an application.

- Store and retrieve key-value pairs in an object store.

- Delete key-value pairs from an object store.

- Retrieve Object Store usage statistics for your organization.

- Object Store provides these APIs:

Object Store API

Object Store Stats API

Additional Info:

When to use Object Store and when to use VM

* '100% increase in the throughput of the API' might look correct, as the number of requests processed per second might increase, but is it guaranteed to increase by 100%? Using 4 nodes will definitely increase throughput of system. But it is cant be precisely said if there would be 100% increase in throughput as it depends on many other factors. Also it is nowhere mentioned in the description that all nodes have same CPU/memory assigned. The question is about the guaranteed behavior * Increasing number of nodes will have no impact on response time as we are scaling application horizontally and not vertically. Similarly there is no change in JVM heap memory usage. * So Correct answer is 50% reduction in the number of requests being received by each node This is because of the two reasons. 1) API is mentioned as stateless 2) Load Balancer is used

Correct answer is Client Management

* Anypoint Platform acts as a client provider by default, but you can also configure external client providers to authorize client applications.

* As an API owner, you can apply an OAuth 2.0 policy to authorize client applications that try to access your API. You need an OAuth 2.0 provider to use an OAuth 2.0 policy.

* You can configure more than one client provider and associate the client providers with different environments. If you configure multiple client providers after you have already created environments, you can associate the new client providers with the environment.

* You should review the existing client configuration before reassigning client providers to avoid any downtime with existing assets or APIs.

* When you delete a client provider from your master organization, the client provider is no longer available in environments that used it.

* Also, assets or APIs that used the client provider can no longer authorize users who want to access them.

* When you create an Anypoint VPC, the range of IP addresses for the network must be specified in the form of a Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) block, using CIDR notation.

* This address space is reserved for Mule workers, so it cannot overlap with any address space used in your data center if you want to peer it with your VPC.

* To calculate the proper sizing for your Anypoint VPC, you first need to understand that the number of dedicated IP addresses is not the same as the number of workers you have deployed.

* For each worker deployed to CloudHub, the following IP assignation takes place: For better fault tolerance, the VPC subnet may be divided into up to four Availability Zones.

* A few IP addresses are reserved for infrastructure. At least two IP addresses per worker to perform at zero-downtime.

* Hence in this scenario 2048 IP's are required to support the requirement.
