Question 35

What CANNOT be effectively enforced using an API policy in Anypoint Platform?

    Correct Answer: D

    Backend system overloading cannot be effectively enforced using an API policy in Anypoint Platform. API policies in Anypoint Platform are designed to enforce security, traffic management, and other operational guidelines for APIs. Nonetheless, preventing backend system overloading requires handling unexpected spikes in traffic, resource limitations, and other factors that go beyond what API policies can manage. Effective strategies to avoid backend overloading include load balancing, scaling, and capacity planning, which must be implemented at the system architecture level.

FreedoxOption: D

Backend system overloading cannot be effectively enforced using an API policy in Anypoint Platform. API policies in Anypoint Platform can help enforce security, traffic management, and other requirements for APIs. However, they cannot effectively prevent backend system overloading. This is because overloading can occur due to various factors such as unexpected spikes in traffic or resource limitations, which cannot be controlled by API policies alone. To prevent overloading, additional measures such as load balancing, scaling, and capacity planning need to be implemented at the backend system level.
