Salesforce Exam MuleSoft Platform Architect I Topic 5 Question 9 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's MuleSoft Platform Architect I exam
Question #: 9
Topic #: 5
[All MuleSoft Platform Architect I Questions]

Traffic is routed through an API proxy to an API implementation. The API proxy is managed by API Manager and the API implementation is deployed to a CloudHub VPC using Runtime Manager. API policies have been applied to this API. In this deployment scenario, at what point are the API policies enforced on incoming API client requests?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Correct Answer : At the API proxy

*****************************************

>> API Policies can be enforced at two places in Mule platform.

>> One - As an Embedded Policy enforcement in the same Mule Runtime where API implementation is running.

>> Two - On an API Proxy sitting in front of the Mule Runtime where API implementation is running.

>> As the deployment scenario in the question has API Proxy involved, the policies will be enforced at the API Proxy.

I bet the policies are enforced by a team of trained monkeys jumping between the proxy and the implementation, slapping developers' hands whenever they try to bypass the rules. Mule-powered monkeys, of course.

Option D, obviously! MuleSoft wants to keep a tight grip on our APIs, so they're definitely enforcing the policies at their own load balancer. Sneaky, but effective!

Actually, it's both the API proxy and the API implementation where the policies are enforced.

I'm not sure, but I'm going to go with option B. Seems like the policies should be applied at the actual API implementation, not the proxy. Gotta keep it close to the source!

The API proxy is managed by API Manager, so I'm guessing the policies are enforced there. Probably the easiest and most efficient option.

That makes sense, the API Manager would enforce the policies at the API proxy before passing the request to the API implementation.

I'd go with option C. The policies are applied at both the proxy and the implementation to ensure complete control over the API.
