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

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.

Explanation

Correct Answer: Create separate Anypoint VPCs for non-production and production environments, then configure connections to the backend systems in the corresponding customer-hosted environments.

*****************************************

>> Creating different Business Groups does NOT make any difference w.r.t accessing the non-prod and prod customer-hosted environments. Still they will be accessing from both Business Groups unless process network restrictions are put in place.

>> We need to modify or couple the Mule Application Implementations with the environment. In fact, we should never implements application coupled with environments by binding them in the properties. Only basic things like endpoint URL etc should be bundled in properties but not environment level access restrictions.

>> IP addresses on CloudHub are dynamic until unless a special static addresses are assigned. So it is not possible to setup firewall rules in customer-hosted infrastrcture. More over, even if static IP addresses are assigned, there could be 100s of applications running on cloudhub and setting up rules for all of them would be a hectic task, non-maintainable and definitely got a good practice.

>> The best practice recommended by Mulesoft (In fact any cloud provider), is to have your Anypoint VPCs seperated for Prod and Non-Prod and perform the VPC peering or VPN tunneling for these Anypoint VPCs to respective Prod and Non-Prod customer-hosted environment networks.

Center for Enablement (C4E) KPIs:

A Center for Enablement (C4E) in MuleSoft focuses on enabling self-service and reuse by providing APIs that can be consumed across the organization. A key metric of success is how many consumers are utilizing the published APIs.

The number of consumers who have requested and received access to an API indicates the level of adoption and reuse, which aligns with the goals of a C4E.

Evaluating the Options:

Option A: This metric could indicate deployment automation, but it is not a direct measure of C4E’s success in enabling API reuse and consumption.

Option B: Bandwidth usage per API implementation provides insight into API traffic but does not measure C4E enablement or consumer engagement.

Option C: The number of developers downloading an API specification can be an indicator of interest but does not confirm actual usage or enablement.

Option D (Correct Answer): The number of consumers who have requested and received access to an API in production is a key metric indicating API adoption and reuse, which aligns with C4E’s goals.

Conclusion:

Option D is the correct answer as it provides a direct measure of consumer engagement and adoption, indicating the success of the C4E in promoting API usage across the organization.
