Salesforce MuleSoft-Integration-Architect-I Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Explanation

* If we store Correlation id value in step 1 as Mule event variables/attributes, the values will be cleared after server restart and we want system to be fault tolerant.

* The Correlation ID value in Step 1 should be stored in a persistent object store.

* We don't need to store Correlation ID value in Step 3 to persistent object store. We can store it but as we also need to make application performant. We can avoid this step of accessing persistent object store.

*  Accessing persistent object stores slow down the performance as persistent object stores are by default stored in shared file systems.

*  As the SOAP service is idempotent in nature. In case of any failures , using this Correlation ID saved in first step we can make call to SOAP service and validate the Correlation ID.

Additional Information:

* Competing Consumers are multiple consumers that are all created to receive messages from a single Point-to-Point Channel. When the channel delivers a message, any of the consumers could potentially receive it. The messaging system's implementation determines which consumer actually receives the message, but in effect the consumers compete with each other to be the receiver. Once a consumer receives a message, it can delegate to the rest of its application to help process the message.

* In case you are unaware about term idempotent re is more info:

Idempotent operations means their result will always same no matter how many times these operations are invoked.

To efficiently handle the invocation of vendor applications and retry requests that generate timeout errors, the most performant way is:

Scatter-Gather Scope: Use a Scatter-Gather scope to invoke each vendor application in parallel. This approach allows the API to send requests to both vendors simultaneously, reducing overall processing time.

Until-Successful Scope: Inside each route of the Scatter-Gather scope, use an Until-Successful scope to handle retries. The Until-Successful scope will retry the request in case of timeout errors until the request succeeds or the maximum retry limit is reached.

This combination ensures that the API can handle intermittent network issues efficiently while minimizing redundant transactions and maximizing performance.

Explanation

V2 Rest API is recommended for on premise applications to access Object Store. It also comes with overhead of encryption and security of using rest api. With Object Store v2, the API call is localized to the same data center as the Runtime Manager app.

But in this case requirement is to access the OS of other mule application and not the same mule application.

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.
