Salesforce MuleSoft-Platform-Architect-I Exam Dumps



Correct Answe r: Use a combination of CloudHub-deployed and manually provisioned on-premises Mule runtimes managed by the MuleSoft-hosted Platform control plane.

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

Key details to be taken from the given scenario:

>> Organization uses BOTH cloud-based and on-premises systems

>> On-premises systems can only be accessed from within the organization's intranet

Let us evaluate the given choices based on above key details:

>> CloudHub-deployed Mule runtimes can ONLY be controlled using MuleSoft-hosted control plane. We CANNOT use Private Cloud Edition's control plane to control CloudHub Mule Runtimes. So, option suggesting this is INVALID

>> Using CloudHub-deployed Mule runtimes in the shared worker cloud managed by the MuleSoft-hosted Anypoint Platform is completely IRRELEVANT to given scenario and silly choice. So, option suggesting this is INVALID

>> Using an on-premises installation of Mule runtimes that are completely isolated with NO external network access, managed by the Anypoint Platform Private Cloud Edition control plane would work for On-premises integrations. However, with NO external access, integrations cannot be done to SaaS-based apps. Moreover CloudHub-hosted apps are best-fit for integrating with SaaS-based applications. So, option suggesting this is BEST WAY.

The best way to configure and use Anypoint Platform to support these mixed/hybrid integrations is to use a combination of CloudHub-deployed and manually provisioned on-premises Mule runtimes managed by the MuleSoft-hosted Platform control plane.

In scenarios where multiple API implementations are deployed across different environments (CloudHub and customer-hosted runtimes), Anypoint Functional Monitoring is the most effective tool to monitor API availability and trigger alerts when an API implementation becomes unresponsive. Here's how it works:

Using Anypoint Functional Monitoring:

Functional Monitoring allows you to create monitors that periodically invoke specific endpoints on the API implementations, simulating a client request. This helps ensure that the API is responsive, even if no actual client requests are being made.

If an API implementation does not respond as expected, Functional Monitoring can generate alerts, notifying administrators of potential issues.

Why Option A is Correct:

By setting up Functional Monitoring to automatically invoke the API endpoints at regular intervals, you ensure continuous monitoring and alerting capabilities, which are especially useful for APIs that may experience periods of low or no traffic. This approach provides a proactive solution, allowing you to identify and address issues before actual users are impacted.

of Incorrect Options:

Option B suggests modifying client applications to trigger alerts, which is not a best practice as it shifts monitoring responsibility to clients, reducing control and consistency.

Option C involves handling exceptions within client applications, which does not address situations where no clients are making requests.

Option D proposes a Worker Not Responding alert in Runtime Manager, which is limited to worker-specific alerts and may not reliably monitor the API's actual responsiveness to requests.

Reference For further information, refer to MuleSoft documentation on Anypoint Functional Monitoring setup and usage for API availability monitoring.

When using CloudHub 1.0's Shared Load Balancer (SLB) for a Mule application configured with HTTPS in an Anypoint VPC, specific ports must be configured for the application to correctly route incoming traffic:

Port Requirement for SLB:

The CloudHub Shared Load Balancer for HTTPS traffic requires that applications listen on port 8092 for secure (HTTPS) communication. This port is reserved specifically for SSL traffic when using SLB with Anypoint VPCs.

Why Option B is Correct:

Setting the HTTP Listener's connector configuration to 8092 aligns with CloudHub requirements for HTTPS via the Shared Load Balancer.

of Incorrect Options:

Option A (8082) is used for non-HTTPS (HTTP) traffic.

Option C (80) and Option D (443) are standard web ports but are not applicable within CloudHub SLB's internal configuration for VPC routing.

Reference For more information on the Shared Load Balancer port configurations, refer to MuleSoft's documentation on CloudHub and VPC load balancer requirements.

When using the Client ID Enforcement policy with default settings, MuleSoft expects the client_id and client_secret to be provided in the URI parameters of each request. This policy is typically used to control and monitor access by validating that each request has valid credentials. Here's how to avoid a 401 Unauthorized error:

URI Parameters Requirement:

The default configuration for the Client ID Enforcement policy requires the client_id and client_secret to be included in each request's URI parameters. This is a straightforward way to authenticate API requests without additional configurations.

Why Option C is Correct:

Providing client_id and client_secret in the URI parameters meets the policy's requirements for each request, ensuring authorized access and avoiding the 401 error.

of Incorrect Options:

Option A (sending a token in the header) would be applicable for token-based authentication (like OAuth 2.0), not Client ID Enforcement.

Option B (request body) and Option D (header) are not valid locations for client_id and client_secret under the default configuration of Client ID Enforcement, which expects them in the URI.

An Anypoint Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) provides a secure and private networking environment for MuleSoft applications, using specific architectural elements:

CIDR Blocks:

Anypoint VPCs utilize CIDR blocks to define IP ranges, allowing organizations to control and segment the VPC's IP address space.

Port 6091 for HTTP Requests:

By default, HTTP requests can be made to workers on port 6091 from the public internet, providing an accessible entry point unless additional restrictions are applied.

of Correct Answers (B, E):

CIDR blocks enable IP range management for VPCs, and port 6091 is the default public entry port, which is part of Anypoint VPC's default settings.

of Incorrect Options:

Option A (Ports 8081 and 8082) is incorrect; these are not default public ports for Anypoint VPC.

Option C (responsible for load balancing) is incorrect as load balancing requires a separate Dedicated Load Balancer (DLB).

Option D (round-robin load balancing) applies to DLBs, not directly to VPCs.
