Question 24

A finance giant is planning to migrate all its Mule applications to Runtime fabric (RTF). Currently all Mule applications are deployed cloud hub using automated CI/CD scripts.

As an integration architect, which of the below step would you suggest to ensure that the applications from cloudhub are migrated properly to Runtime Fabric (RTF) with an assumption that organization is keen on keeping the same deployment strategy.

Options:

No changes need to be made to POM.xml file and CI/CD script should be modified as per the RTF configurations

runtimeFabric dependency should be added as a mule plug-in to POM.xml file and CI/CD script should be modified as per the RTF configurations

runtimeFabric deployment should be added to POM.xml file in all

the mule applications and CI/CD script should be modified as per the RTF configurations

runtimeFabric profile should be added mule configuration files in the mule applications and CI/CD script should be modified as per the RTF configurations

Question 25

An integration Mute application is being designed to process orders by submitting them to a backend system for offline processing. Each order will be received by the Mute application through an HTTPS POST and must be acknowledged immediately. Once acknowledged, the order will be submitted to a backend system. Orders that cannot be successfully submitted due to rejections from the backend system will need to be processed manually (outside the backend system).

The Mule application will be deployed to a customer-hosted runtime and is able to use an existing ActiveMQ broker if needed.

The backend system has a track record of unreliability both due to minor network connectivity issues and longer outages.

What idiomatic (used for their intended purposes) combination of Mule application components and ActiveMQ queues are required to ensure automatic submission of orders to the backend system, while minimizing manual order processing?

Options:

An On Error scope Non-persistent VM ActiveMQ Dead Letter Queue for manual processing

An On Error scope MuleSoft Object Store ActiveMQ Dead Letter Queue for manual processing

Until Successful component MuleSoft Object Store ActiveMQ is NOT needed or used

Until Successful component ActiveMQ long retry Queue ActiveMQ Dead Letter Queue for manual processing

Answer:

Explanation:

Explanation

Correct answer is using below set of activities Until Successful component ActiveMQ long retry Queue ActiveMQ Dead Letter Queue for manual processing We will see why this is correct answer but before that lets understand few of the concepts which we need to know. Until Successful Scope The Until Successful scope processes messages through its processors until the entire operation succeeds. Until Successful repeatedly retries to process a message that is attempting to complete an activity such as: - Dispatching to outbound endpoints, for example, when calling a remote web service that may have availability issues. - Executing a component method, for example, when executing on a Spring bean that may depend on unreliable resources. - A sub-flow execution, to keep re-executing several actions until they all succeed, - Any other message processor execution, to allow more complex scenarios. How this will help requirement : Using Until Successful Scope we can retry sending the order to backend systems in case of error to avoid manual processing later. Retry values can be configured in Until Successful Scope Apache ActiveMQ It is an open source message broker written in Java together with a full Java Message Service client ActiveMQ has the ability to deliver messages with delays thanks to its scheduler. This functionality is the base for the broker redelivery plug-in. The redelivery plug-in can intercept dead letter processing and reschedule the failing messages for redelivery. Rather than being delivered to a DLQ, a failing message is scheduled to go to the tail of the original queue and redelivered to a message consumer. How this will help requirement : If backend application is down for a longer duration where Until Successful Scope wont work, then we can make use of ActiveMQ long retry Queue. The redelivery plug-in can intercept dead letter processing and reschedule the failing messages for redelivery.

Question 26

A company is modernizing its legal systems lo accelerate access lo applications and data while supporting the adoption of new technologies. The key to achieving this business goal is unlocking the companies' key systems and dala including microservices miming under Docker and kubernetes containers using apis.

Considering the current aggressive backlog and project delivery requirements the company wants to take a strategic approach in the first phase of its transformation projects by quickly deploying API's in mule runtime that are able lo scale, connect to on premises systems and migrate as needed.

Which runtime deployment option supports company's goals?

Options:

Customer hosted self provisioned runtimes

Cloudhub runtimes

Runtime fabric on self managed Kubernetes

Runtime fabric on Vmware metal

Question 27

An organization if struggling frequent plugin version upgrades and external plugin project dependencies. The team wants to minimize the impact on applications by creating best practices that will define a set of default dependencies across all new and in progress projects.

How can these best practices be achieved with the applications having the least amount of responsibility?
