MuleSoft Doc Ref :https://docs.mulesoft.com/runtime-manager/cloudhub-architecture#cloudhub-workers

CloudHub Workers

Workers are dedicated instances of Mule runtime engine that run your integration applications on CloudHub. The memory capacity and processing power of a worker depends on how you configure it at the application level.

Worker sizes have different compute, memory, and storage capacities. You can scale workers vertically by selecting one of the available worker sizes:

Correct answer is An Object containing all three Mule event Objects

The Scatter-Gather component is a routing event processor that processes a Mule event through different parallel processing routes that contain different event processors. Each route receives a reference to the Mule event and executes a sequence of one or more event processors. Each of these routes uses a separate thread to execute the event processors, and the resulting Mule event can be either the same Mule event without modifications or a new Mule event with its own payload, attributes, and variables. The Scatter-Gather componentthen combines the Mule events returned by each processingroute into a new Mule event that is passed to the next event processor only after every route completes successfully.

The Scatter-Gather component executes each route in parallel, not sequentially.Parallel execution of routes can greatly increase the efficiency of your Mule application and may provide more information than sequential processing.

Transform Message Add write_date is coverting payload in JSON format and same JSON payload is avaialble to file write processor. However, if the payload is a different format (for example, not CSV) , you can place the transformation inside the Write operation to generate content that will be written without producing a side effect on the message in transit. This is not done in this case. By default, the connector writes whatever is in the message payload. Hence JSON payload will be written to file.

Scatter-Gather sends the event to each routes concurrently. Hence both route in this example will start in parallel. So total time to complete processing is 40 seconds

The Scatter-Gather component is a routing event processor thatprocesses a Mule event through different parallel processing routes that contain different event processors. Each route receives a reference to the Mule event and executes a sequence of one or more event processors. Each of these routes uses a separate thread to execute the event processors, and the resulting Mule event can be either the same Mule event without modifications or a new Mule event with its own payload, attributes, and variables. The Scatter-Gather component then combines the Mule events returned by each processing route into a new Mule event that is passed to the next event processor only after every route completes successfully.

The Scatter-Gather component executes each route in parallel, not sequentially. Parallel execution of routes can greatly increase the efficiency of your Mule application and may provide more information than sequential processing.

Attributes are replaced with new attributes from the HTTP Request response.

Attributes include everything apart from Payload/body. For ex: Headers, query parameters, URI parameters.

So, when outbound HTTP request is made, new attributes need to passthe outbound HTTP request and old attributes are replaced.

I have created below diagram to make it easy for you to understand:

Option1 is correct syntax to configure HTTP Listener endpoint

Option 1 is the only correct choice due to two reasons. 1) Concatenation is always with ++ sign and not with + sign which makes option 2 and 3 wrong2) hearders can be accessed with attributes. headers and not with only headers which makes option 4 incorrect

Correct answer is MAJOR

MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes, MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner, and PATCH version when you make backwards compatible bug fixes.

For details refer to this documentation : https://semver.org/

Database always return rows as an array.

Array is the correct answer

Graphical user interface, text, application, email Description automatically generated

A. String

B. Object

C. Java

D. XML

Answer: A

String is the correct answer as XML is of an Object type String

Allowed methods is an optional configuration. If nothing is specified then all HTTP methods are supported.

Rest all are mandatory.

Correct answer is vars."customer"."firstName"

Please note that you can also access firstName using this syntax vars.customer.firstName.

Mule Ref Doc : Variables in Mule Apps | MuleSoft Documentation

Correct answer is as below.After all processing routes have finished execution, the Scatter-Gathercomponent creates a new Mule event that combines all resulting Mule events from each route, and then passes the new Mule event to the next component in the flow.

{

"0": {

"attributes": ...,

"payload": "100"

},

"1": {

"attributes": ...,

"payload": "200"

In case ofan error , batch job completes in flight steps and stops further processing.

MuleSoft Doc Ref : Handling Errors During Batch Job | MuleSoft Documentation

The default is all processing will stop but we can change it by Max Failed Record field.

General -> Max Failed Records: Mule has three options for handling a record-level error: Finish processing, Continue processing and Continue processing until the batch job accumulates a maximum number of failed records. This behavior can be controlled by Max Failed Records.

The default value is Zero which corresponds to Finish processing.

The value -1, corresponds to Continue processing.

The value +ve integer, corresponds to Continue processing until the batch job accumulates a maximum number of failed records

Correct answer is as below as concatenation operation worksonly with string and not with the objects. In this case payload is object.

"You called the function '++' with these arguments:

1: String ("INFO")

2: Object ({student: {name: "Anay" as String {class: "java.lang.String"},age

Creates reusable APIs and assets designed to beconsumed by other business units

This question validates you knowledge on Batch Processing. Before we analyze the question , lets revise a bit about batchfilters.

Batch Filters

You can apply one or more filters as attributes to any number of batch steps.Imagine a batch job whose first batch step checks if a Salesforce contact exists for a record, and a second batch step that updates each existing Salesforce contact with new information. You can apply a filter to the second batch step to ensure it only processes records that didn’t fail during the first batch step.By having batch steps accept only some records for processing, you streamline the batch job sothe Mule runtime engine can focus only on the relevant data for a particular batch step.

A batch step uses two attributes to filter records:

acceptExpression

acceptPolicy

Each batch step can accept one acceptExpression and one acceptPolicy attributes to filter records.

Use the acceptExpression attribute to process only records that evaluate to true; if the record evaluates to false, the batch step skips the record and sends it to the next one. In other words, the records with an accept expression that resolves to false are the ones that Mule filters out.

The example below filters out all records where the age is less than 21; the batch step does not process those records.

21]">

...

Mule Ref Doc : Refining Batch StepsProcessing | MuleSoft Documentation

As we are clear with above concepts , now lets understand this solution step by step.

1) Batch Step (Less than 50)

Accept expression for this batch step is less than 50. Hence elements which will go in this batch step are amount value 40 and 2. Hence output of logger in first batch step is

{amount=140}

{amount=102}

2) Batch Step (Greater than 20)

Accept condition for this batch step is greater than 20. Note that input amount values for this batch step are 100 , 140 and102 (last two values have been updated in batch step less than 50)

As all values satisfy this condition out put of second logger is

{step2amount=100}

{step2amount=140}

{step2amount=102}

Hence correct answer to this question is

{amount=140}

{amount=102}

{step2amount=100}

{step2amount=140}

{step2amount=102}

2) Batch Step (Greater than 20)

Accept condition for this batch step is greater than 20. Note that input amount values for this batch step are 100 , 140 and 102 (last two values have been updated inbatch step less than 50)

As all values satisfy this condition out put of second logger is

{step2amount=100}

{step2amount=140}

{step2amount=102}

Hence correct answer to this question is

{amount=140}

{amount=102}

{step2amount=100}

{step2amount=140}

{step2amount=102}

Correct answer is Patients from year 2021.

The thing to note here is that year is not a query parameter and not the uri parameter. Hence it will filter all the patients and return the ones for whom year is 2021

You can choose Attach Project Sources to include metadata that Studio requires to reimport the deployable file as an open Mule project into your workspace. You must keep the Attach Project Sources option selected to be able to import the packaged JAR file back into a Studio workspace. But requirement here is to create smallest deployable archive that will successfully deploy to Cloudhub. Hence we can ignore this option.

We need to select Include project module and dependencies

As actual modules and external dependencies required to run the Mule application in a Mule runtime engine

Hence correct answer is

Select only below option 2) Include project module and dependencies

MuleSoft Doc Ref :https://docs.mulesoft.com/studio/7.5/import-export-packages#exporting-a-studio-project-to-a-deployable-mule-application

APIKIt Creates a separate flow for each HTTP method. Hence 4 private flows would be generated.

MuleSoft Documentation Referrence :https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/build-application-from-api

Its primary function is to design and develop fully functional Mule applications in a hosted development environment.

Core (dw::Core) This module contains core DataWeave functions for data transformations. It is automatically imported into any DataWeave script.

Choice Router

The Choice router dynamically routes messages through a flow according to a set of DataWeave expressions that evaluate message content. Each expression is associated with a different routingoption. The effect is to add conditional processing to a flow, similar to an if/then/else code block in most programming languages.

Only one of the routes in the Choice router executes, meaning that the first expression that evaluates to true triggers thatroute’s execution and the others are not checked. If none of the expressions are true, then the default route executes.

Mulesoft Doc Ref : https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/choice-router-concept

With respect to above information ,

Option 1 is the correct syntax as others are incorrect because of below reasons

* Single = is not the correct syntax to validate the condition. It should be ==

* If keyword is not required in when condition.

Metadata is stored in application-types.xml flle located under src/main/resources.

Mule 4 applications contain an application-types.xml file, which is where metadata around your data types is stored. For example, if you createa new CSV type, that metadata will be added to this file. This new file is easy to share, commit, and merge when conflicts arise, which enables you to do more metadata-driven development.

MuleSoft Doc Ref : https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/intro-studio#metadata-storage

Correct answer is 200.1234 as String {format: ".0#"} . Rest all options are not syntactically correct.

This is a trick question.

You can callonly flows from DataWeave using lookup function. Note that lookup function does not support calling subflows.

A subflow needs a parent context to inherit behaviors from such as exception handling, which a flow does not need

Hence correct answer is Not possible in Mule 4

Centre for Enablement (C4E) is an IT operating model that enables an enterprise to build reusable assets, accumulate API’s, leveragebest practices and knowledge to enable self service and efficient delivery in the organization and implement new solutions faster

Correct answer is Creates and manages discoverable assets to be consumedby line of business developers.

C4E does not get directly involved in projects.

Anypoint Exchange provided a way to publish , share and search API's.

Choice router finds the FIRST true condition, then distribute the event to the ONE matched route.

MuleSoft Doc Ref: https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.1/choice-router-concept

The Choice router dynamically routes messages through a flow according to a set of DataWeave expressions that evaluate message content. Each expression is associated with a different routing option. The effect is to add conditional processing to a flow, similar to an if/then/else code block in most programming languages.

Only one of the routes in the Choice router executes, meaning that the first expression that evaluates to true triggersthat route’s execution and the others are not checked. If none of the expressions are true, then the default route executes.

To include property. To keep the API definition concise, you can include external content, such as documentation, schemas, and frequently used patterns outside the definition itself. Theparser interprets !include as if the content of the externally-hosted file or a URL were declared in-line.

To use the fragments in RAML you have to include the exact path(copy the path) of that fragment you want to use as shown below

Option 3 is the correct as correct syntax is

examples: !include examples/StudentExample.raml

This kind of questions are best solved with filtering technique. Key thing to note here is XML attributes are always access by @ notation. So in thisexample orderId can be accessed as @OrderId which makes option 3 and option 4 false. Now difference in optin and option 2 is in mapping of lineItemPrice. Correct syntax to format a String in Numbse is value.price as Number. Hence option 2 is correct

Query parameters are a defined set of parameters attached to the end of a url. They are extensions of the URL that are used to help define specific content or actions based on the data being passed. To append query params to the end of a URL, a ‘?’ Is added followed immediately by a query parameter.

To add multiple parameters, an ‘&’ is added in between each.

Hence coming back to question, endpoint would return Patients with name as John and (and is very important here) surname as Bell

option 3 is the correct syntz to access application properties

An object store is a facility for storing objects in or across Mule applications. Mule runtime engine (Mule) uses object stores to persist data for eventual retrieval. Internally, Mule uses objectstores in various filters, routers, and other message processors that need to store states between messages.

Object stores are available in all deployment targets. If you deploy your application to CloudHub, you can also use Object Store V2.

Correct answer is Key/value pair in Object store

MuleSoft Documentation reference : https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/mule-object-stores#use-cases

URI parameter is basically used to identify a specific resource or resources

* Here we want toupdate details about specific department, so question is asking 'How to use URI parameter' in RAML

* Correct answer is

/departments:

/{deptId}:

patch:

Mule applications can be scaled vertically by changing worker size. Mule applications can be scaled horizontally by adding more workers.

Error in validation component will get processed by Processer level On Error Propagate block and thenerror will be rethrown which will get processed by flow level error handler which will set payload to "Error- main flow". Hence correct answer is Error - main flow

1) Request is received by HTTP listener

2) Try scope gets executed

3) The validator component in the Try scope creates an Error Object because the payload is not null.

4) The On Error Propagate handles the error. The payload is set to “Error – Try scope”

6) “Error – Try scope” is returned to the 'On Error Continue' block. Main flow execution stops. Payload is set to "Error - main flow"

7) “Error - main flow” is returned to the requestor in the body of the HTTP request. HTTP Status Code: 200

QUESTIONNO: 219

A Mule project contains a DataWeave module file WebStore dvA that defines a function named loginUser The module file is located in the projects src/main/resources/libs/dw folder

What is correct DataWeave code to import all of the WebStore.dwl file's functions and then call the loginUser function for the login "cindy.park@example.com"?

A)

B)

C)

D)

A. Option A

B. Option B

C. Option C

D. Option D

Answer: D

Paths

The pathof an HTTP listener can be static, which requires exact matches, or feature placeholders. Placeholders can be wildcards (*), which match against anything they are compared to, or parameters ({param}), which not only match against anything but also capturethose values on a URI parameters map.

Take the following example paths for three listeners using a configuration that establishes api/v1 as the base path:

account/mulesoft/main-contact: only match the exact path request http://awesome-company.com/api/v1/account/mulesoft/main-contact

account/{accountId}/main-contact: matches all path requests structured similarly, such as http://awesome-company.com/api/v1/account/salesforce/main-contact, and save salesforce as the value of accountId.

account/{accountId}/*: matches all path requests different from main-contact, such as http://awesome-company.com/api/v1/account/mulesoft/users, and save mulesoft as the value of accountId.

Mule Ref Doc : https://docs.mulesoft.com/http-connector/1.6/http-listener-ref#paths

Cloudhub exposeservices on port 8081 and override value in http.port with this one .

Sample log in Runtime Manager is below

21:15:53.148 08/08/2021 Worker-0 ArtifactDeployer.start.01 INFO

Listening for connections on 'http://0.0.0.0:8081 '

As can be seen in RAML, POST expects input in application/json format which eliminates two of the options as two options are in xml format.

Now out of the two remainingoptions, one has id field in request which is only mentioned for get response and not for POST request. Hence id field is not expected in POST request.

Hence correct answer is

{

"name": "GoerdiLa Forge",

"address": "1 Westland CA",

"customer_since":"2014-01-04",

"balance": "4829.29",

"bank_agend_id": "12556"

}

Correct answer is Attributes.

Query parameters , URI parameters and headers are some of examples which are part of attributes.
