MCPA - Level 1 Exam - Question 17


A System API is designed to retrieve data from a backend system that has scalability challenges.

What API policy can best safeguard the backend system?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

To safeguard a backend system with scalability challenges, the most effective API policy would be SLA-based rate limiting. SLA-based rate limiting helps manage the number of API calls made to the backend system within a specified time frame, preventing the backend from becoming overwhelmed by too many requests. This ensures that the API usage remains within the system's capacity limits, thereby maintaining performance and preventing potential downtime.

The same question asked in MCPA maintenance and it was having Spike Control in place of SLA Rate Limiting, so be careful
