Free Access Salesforce MuleSoft-Integration-Architect-I New Release

Explanation

Correct answer is MuleSoft-hosted Anypoint Platform control plane Customer-hosted runtime plane in each datacenter There are two things to note about the question which can help us figure out correct answer.. * Business data must be exchanged over these private network connections which means we can not use MuleSoft provided Cloudhub option. So we are left with either customer hosted runtime in external cloud provider or customer hosted runtime in their own premises. As customer does not use AWS at the moment. Hence that don't have the immediate option of using Customer-hosted runtime plane in multiple AWS regions. hence the most suitable option for runtime plane is Customer-hosted runtime plane in each datacenter * Metadata has no limitation to reside in organization premises. Hence for control plane MuleSoft hosted Anypoint platform can be used as a strategic solution.

Hybrid is the best choice to start. Mule hosted Control plane and Customer hosted Runtime to start with.Once they mature in cloud migration, everything can be in Mule hosted.

To hide sensitive data exchanged between API consumers and API implementations while allowing the conversion of tokenized fields back to their original values for other API requests or responses, the best approach is to use tokenization. This involves:

• Tokenization Format: Create a tokenization format that will be used to apply a tokenization policy in the API gateway. This format ensures that sensitive fields in message payloads are replaced with tokenized values that maintain a similar format, making them less recognizable as sensitive data.
• Tokenization Policy: Apply a tokenization policy in the API gateway that replaces sensitive data with tokenized values.
• Detokenization Policy: Apply a corresponding detokenization policy in the API gateway to convert tokenized values back to their original values when required by other APIs.

This method does not require recoding the API implementations and ensures that sensitive data is protected while still being accessible in its original form when necessary.

Explanation

* Any change in the application will require a restart except when the issue outside the app. For below situations , you would need to redeploy the code after doing necessary changes

-- One of the stored procedures being called by the Mule application has been renamed. In this case, in the Mule application you will have to do changes to accommodate the new stored procedure name.

-- Required redesign of Mule applications to follow microservice architecture principles. As code is changed, deployment is must

-- If the credentials changed and you need to update the connector or the properties.

-- The credentials for accessing the database have been updated and the previous credentials are no longer valid. In this situation you need to restart or redeploy depending on how credentials are configured in Mule application.

* So Correct answer is The database server was unavailable for four hours due to a major outage but is now fully operational again as this is the only external issue to application.
