A team would like to create a project skeleton that developers can use as a starting point when creating API implementations with Anypoint Studio. This skeleton should help drive consistent use of best practices within the team.
What type of Anypoint Exchange artifact(s) should be added to Anypoint Exchange to publish the project skeleton?

1. A. A RAML archetype and reusable trait definitions to be reused across API implementations
2. B. A custom asset with the default API implementation
3. C. An example of an API implementation following best practices
4. D. A Mule application template with the key components and minimal integration logic

Correct Answer: D

An integration Mule application consumes and processes a list of rows from a CSV file. Each row must be read from the CSV file, validated, and the row data sent to a JMS queue, in the exact order as in the CSV file.
If any processing step for a row fails, then a log entry must be written for that row, but processing of other rows must not be affected.
What combination of Mule components is most idiomatic (used according to their intended purpose) when implementing the above requirements?

1. A. Scatter-Gather componentOn Error Continue scope
2. B. VM connectorFirst Successful scopeOn Error Propagate scope
3. C. Async scopeOn Error Propagate scope
4. D. For Each scopeOn Error Continue scope

Correct Answer: D

Refer to the exhibit.

1. A. Persistent Anypoint MQ Queue
2. B. Persistent Object Store
3. C. Persistent Cache Scope
4. D. Persistent VM Queue

Correct Answer: B

What aspects of a CI/CD pipeline for Mule applications can be automated using MuleSoft-provided Maven plugins?

1. A. Import from API designer, compile, package, unit test, deploy, publish to Anypoint Exchange
2. B. Compile, package, unit test, validate unit test coverage, deploy
3. C. Compile, package, unit test, deploy, integration test
4. D. Compile, package, unit test, deploy, create associated API instances in API Manager

Correct Answer: C

A Mule application contains a Batch Job with two Batch Steps (Batch_Step_1 and Batch_Step_2). A payload with 1000 records is received by the Batch Job.
How many threads are used by the Batch Job to process records, and how does each Batch Step process records within the Batch Job?

1. A. Each Batch Job uses SEVERAL THREADS for the Batch StepsEach Batch Step instance receives ONE record at a time as the payload, and BATCH STEP INSTANCES execute IN PARALLEL to process records and Batch Steps in ANY order as fast as possible
2. B. Each Batch Job uses SEVERAL THREADS for the Batch StepsEach Batch Step instance receives ONE record at a time as the payload, and RECORDS are processed IN PARALLEL within and between the two Batch Steps
3. C. Each Batch Job uses a SINGLE THREAD for all Batch StepsEach Batch Step instance receives ONE record at a time as the payload, and RECORDS are processed IN ORDER, first through Batch_Step_1 and then through Batch_Step_2
4. D. Each Batch Job uses a SINGLE THREAD to process a configured block size of recordEach Batch Step instance receives A BLOCK OF records as the payload, and BLOCKS of records are processed IN ORDER

Correct Answer: A
