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

Explanation

* Correct answer is To directly reference one shared and customized log4j2.xml file from multiple Mule applications. Key word  to note in the answer is directly.

* By default, CloudHub replaces a Mule application's log4j2.xml file with a CloudHub log4j2.xml file. This specifies the CloudHub appender to write logs to the CloudHub logging service.

* You cannot modify CloudHub log4j2.xml file to add any custom appender. But there is a process in order to achieve this. You need to raise a request on support portal to disable CloudHub provided Mule application log4j2 file.

* Once this is done , Mule application's log4j2.xml file is used which you can use to send/export application logs to other log4j2 appenders, such as a custom logging system MuleSoft does not own any responsibility for lost logging data due to misconfiguration of your own log4j appender if it happens by any chance.

* One more difference between customer-hosted Mule runtimes and CloudHub deployed mule instance is that

- CloudHub system log messages cannot be sent to external log management system without installing custom CH logging configuration through support

- where as Customer-hosted runtime can send system and application log to external log management system

MuleSoft Reference:

For handling large datasets in a Mule application, streaming is an effective strategy. Streaming allows the application to process large amounts of data in chunks, reducing memory usage and improving performance. Using a file storage repeatable strategy for reading records from the database ensures that the data is read in manageable chunks and stored temporarily in files, which can be re-read if necessary, enhancing reliability.

The batch aggregator with streaming to write to an FTPS server ensures that data is written in chunks, aligning with the processing capabilities of the application running in CloudHub with 0.2 vCore and 8 GB storage. This configuration optimizes performance by balancing the load and managing the dataset size effectively, ensuring that the high rate of records can be processed and written to the FTPS server without overwhelming the system.

In the given scenario, a rate limiting policy has been applied to the SOAP API and a global error handler is configured to handle HTTP:RETRY_EXHAUSTED errors with a 429 status code. The rate limiting policy will trigger when the client exceeds the allowed quota of API calls. Since the HTTP:RETRY_EXHAUSTED error specifically catches quota exhaustion errors and the error handler is configured to return a 429 status code, the expected HTTP status returned to the client when the quota is exceeded will be 429. This error code indicates that the user has sent too many requests in a given amount of time ("rate limiting").
