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 . All event sources, regardless of time, can be configured as the target source by the primary node in the cluster
- B . An external load balancer is required to distribute incoming requests throughout the cluster nodes
- C . A Mule application deployed to multiple nodes runs in an isolation from the other nodes in the cluster
- D . Although the cluster environment is fully installed configured and running, it will not process any requests until an outage condition is detected by the primary node in the cluster.
Customer has deployed mule applications to different customer hosted mule run times.
Mule applications are managed from Anypoint platform.
What needs to be configured to monitor these Mule applications from Anypoint monitoring and what sends monitoring data to Anypoint monitoring?
- A . Enable monitoring of individual applications from runtime manager application settings Runtime manager agent sends monitoring data from the mule applications to Anypoint monitoring
- B . Install runtime manager agent on each mule runtime
Runtime manager agent since monitoring data from the mule applications to Anypoint monitoring - C . Anypoint monitoring agent on each mule runtime
Anypoint monitoring agent sends monitoring data from the mule applications to Anypoint monitoring - D . By default, Anypoint monitoring agent will be installed on each Mule run time
Anypoint Monitoring agent automatically sends monitoring data from the Mule applications to Anypoint monitoring
An organization has chosen Mulesoft for their integration and API platform.
According to the Mulesoft catalyst framework, what would an integration architect do to create achievement goals as part of their business outcomes?
- A . Measure the impact of the centre for enablement
- B . build and publish foundational assets
- C . agree upon KPI’s and help develop and overall success plan
- D . evangelize API’s
An organization is evaluating using the CloudHub shared Load Balancer (SLB) vs creating a CloudHub dedicated load balancer (DLB). They are evaluating how this choice affects the various types of certificates used by CloudHub deployed Mule applications, including MuleSoft-provided, customer-provided, or Mule application-provided certificates.
What type of restrictions exist on the types of certificates for the service that can be exposed by the CloudHub Shared Load Balancer (SLB) to external web clients over the public internet?
- A . Underlying Mule applications need to implement own certificates
- B . Only MuleSoft provided certificates can be used for server side certificate
- C . Only self signed certificates can be used
- D . All certificates which can be used in shared load balancer need to get approved by raising support ticket
B
Explanation:
Correct answer is Only MuleSoft provided certificates can be used for server side certificate
* The CloudHub Shared Load Balancer terminates TLS connections and uses its own server-side certificate.
* You would need to use dedicated load balancer which can enable you to define SSL configurations to provide custom certificates and optionally enforce two-way SSL client authentication.
* To use a dedicated load balancer in your environment, you must first create an Anypoint VPC. Because you can associate multiple environments with the same Anypoint VPC, you can use the same dedicated load balancer for your different environments.

An airline is architecting an API connectivity project to integrate its flight data into an online aggregation website. The interface must allow for secure communication high-performance and asynchronous message exchange.
What are suitable interface technologies for this integration assuming that Mulesoft fully supports these technologies and that Anypoint connectors exist for these interfaces?
- A . AsyncAPI over HTTPS AMQP with RabbitMQ JSON/REST over HTTPS
- B . XML over ActiveMQ XML over SFTP XML/REST over HTTPS
- C . CSV over FTP YAM L over TLS JSON over HTTPS
- D . SOAP over HTTPS HOP over TLS gRPC over HTTPS
An organization has defined a common object model in Java to mediate the communication between different Mule applications in a consistent way. A Mule application is being built to use this common object model to process responses from a SOAP API and a REST API and then write the processed results to an order management system.
The developers want Anypoint Studio to utilize these common objects to assist in creating mappings for various transformation steps in the Mule application.
What is the most idiomatic (used for its intended purpose) and performant way to utilize these common objects to map between the inbound and outbound systems in the Mule application?
- A . Use JAXB (XML) and Jackson (JSON) data bindings
- B . Use the WSS module
- C . Use the Java module
- D . Use the Transform Message component
A

An organization is designing the following two Mule applications that must share data via a common persistent object store instance:
– Mule application P will be deployed within their on-premises datacenter.
– Mule application C will run on CloudHub in an Anypoint VPC.
The object store implementation used by CloudHub is the Anypoint Object Store v2 (OSv2).
What type of object store(s) should be used, and what design gives both Mule applications access to the same object store instance?
- A . Application P uses the Object Store connector to access a persistent object store Application C accesses this persistent object store via the Object Store REST API through an IPsec tunnel
- B . Application C and P both use the Object Store connector to access the Anypoint Object Store v2
- C . Application C uses the Object Store connector to access a persistent object Application P accesses the persistent object store via the Object Store REST API
- D . Application C and P both use the Object Store connector to access a persistent object store
C
Explanation:
Correct answer is Application A accesses the persistent object store via the Object Store REST API Application B uses the Object Store connector to access a persistent object
* Object Store v2 lets CloudHub applications store data and states across batch processes, Mule components and applications, from within an application or by using the Object Store REST API.
* On-premise Mule applications cannot use Object Store v2.
* You can select Object Store v2 as the implementation for Mule 3 and Mule 4 in CloudHub by checking the Object Store V2 checkbox in Runtime Manager at deployment time.
* CloudHub Mule
applications can use Object Store connector to write to the object store
* The only way on-premises Mule applications can access Object Store v2 is via the Object Store REST API.
* You can configure a Mule app to use the Object Store REST API to store and retrieve values from an object store in another Mule app.
What is true about automating interactions with Anypoint Platform using tools such as Anypoint Platform REST API’s, Anypoint CLI or the Mule Maven plugin?
- A . By default, the Anypoint CLI and Mule Maven plugin are not included in the Mule runtime
- B . Access to Anypoint Platform API;s and Anypoint CLI can be controlled separately thruough the roles and permissions in Anypoint platform, so that specific users can get access to Anypoint CLI while others get access to the platform API’s
- C . Anypoint Platform API’s can only automate interactions with CloudHub while the Mule
maven plugin is required for deployment to customer hosted Mule runtimes - D . API policies can be applied to the Anypoint platform API’s so that only certain LOS’s has access to specific functions
A
Explanation:
Correct answer is By default, the Anypoint CLI and Mule Maven plugin are not included in the Mule runtime Maven is not part of runtime though it is part of studio. You do not need it to deploy in order to deploy your app. Same is the case with CLI.
How does timeout attribute help inform design decisions while using JMS connector listening for incoming messages in an extended architecture (XA) transaction?
- A . After the timeout is exceeded, stale JMS consumer threads are destroyed and new threads are created
- B . The timeout specifies the time allowed to pass between receiving JMS messages on the same JMS connection and then after the timeout new JMS connection is established
- C . The time allowed to pass between committing the transaction and the completion of the mule flow and then after the timeout flow processing triggers an error
- D . The timeout defines the time that is allowed to pass without the transaction ending explicitly and after the timeout expires, the transaction rolls back
An organization is designing multiple new applications to run on CloudHub in a single Anypoint VPC and that must share data using a common persistent Anypoint object store V2 (OSv2).
Which design gives these mule applications access to the same object store instance?
- A . AVM connector configured to directly access the persistence queue of the persistent object store
- B . An Anypoint MQ connector configured to directly access the persistent object store
- C . Object store V2 can be shared across cloudhub applications with the configured osv2 connector
- D . The object store V2 rest API configured to access the persistent object store
