An organization has just developed a Mule application that implements a REST API. The mule application will be deployed to a cluster of customer hosted Mule runtimes.
What additional infrastructure component must the customer provide in order to distribute inbound API requests across the Mule runtimes of the cluster?
Mule application is deployed to Customer Hosted Runtime. Asynchronous logging was implemented to improved throughput of the system. But it was observed over the period of time that few of the important exception log messages which were used to rollback transactions are not working as expected causing huge loss to the Organization. Organization wants to avoid these losses. Application also has constraints due to which they cant compromise on throughput much. What is the possible option in this case?
An organization designing a hybrid, load balanced, single cluster production environment. Due to performance service level agreement goals, it is looking into running the Mule applications in an active-active multi node cluster configuration.
What should be considered when running its Mule applications in this type of environment?
A travel company wants to publish a well-defined booking service API to be shared with its business partners. These business partners have agreed to ONLY consume SOAP services and they want to get the service contracts in an easily consumable way before they start any development. The travel company will publish the initial design documents to Anypoint Exchange, then share those documents with the business partners. When using an API-led approach, what is the first design document the travel company should deliver to its business partners?
A system API EmployeeSAPI is used to fetch employee's data from an underlying SQL database.
The architect must design a caching strategy to query the database only when there is an update to the employees stable or else return a cached response in order to minimize the number of redundant transactions being handled by the database.
What must the architect do to achieve the caching objective?
One of the backend systems involved by the API implementation enforces rate limits on the number of request a particle client can make.
Both the back-end system and API implementation are deployed to several non-production environments including the staging environment and to a particular production environment. Rate limiting of the back-end system applies to all non-production environments.
The production environment however does not have any rate limiting.
What is the cost-effective approach to conduct performance test of the API implementation in the non-production staging environment?
A leading e-commerce giant will use Mulesoft API's on runtime fabric (RTF) to process customer orders. Some customer's sensitive information such as credit card information is also there as a part of a API payload.
What approach minimizes the risk of matching sensitive data to the original and can convert back to the original value whenever and wherever required?
An organization is successfully using API led connectivity, however, as the application network grows, all the manually performed tasks to publish share and discover, register, apply policies to, and deploy an API are becoming repetitive pictures driving the organization to automate this process using efficient CI/'CD pipeline. Considering Anypoint platforms capabilities how should the organization approach automating is API lifecycle?
An organization is designing a mule application to support an all or nothing transaction between serval database operations and some other connectors so that they all roll back if there is a problem with any of the connectors
Besides the database connector , what other connector can be used in the transaction.
Table
Description automatically generatedWhen designing an upstream API and its implementation, the development team has been advised to not set timeouts when invoking downstream API. Because the downstream API has no SLA that can be relied upon. This is the only donwstream API dependency of that upstream API. Assume the downstream API runs uninterrupted without crashing. What is the impact of this advice?
How does timeout attribute help inform design decisions while using JMS connector listening for incoming messages in an extended architecture (XA) transaction?
An organization has deployed both Mule and non-Mule API implementations to integrate its customer and order management systems. All the APIs are available to REST clients on the public internet.
The organization wants to monitor these APIs by running health checks: for example, to determine if an API can properly accept and process requests. The organization does not have subscriptions to any external monitoring tools and also does not want to extend its IT footprint.
What Anypoint Platform feature provides the most idiomatic (used for its intended purpose) way to monitor the availability of both the Mule and the non-Mule API implementations?
A company is planning to migrate its deployment environment from on-premises cluster to a Runtime Fabric (RTF) cluster. It also has a requirement to enable Mule applications deployed to a Mule runtime instance to store and share data across application replicas and restarts.
How can these requirements be met?
