Question 53

Mule applications that implement a number of REST APIs are deployed to their own subnet that is inaccessible from outside the organization.

External business-partners need to access these APIs, which are only allowed to be invoked from a separate subnet dedicated to partners - called Partner-subnet.

This subnet is accessible from the public internet, which allows these external partners to reach it.

Anypoint Platform and Mule runtimes are already deployed in Partner-subnet. These Mule runtimes can already access the APIs.

What is the most resource-efficient solution to comply with these requirements, while having the least impact on other applications that are currently using the

APIs?

    Correct Answer: A

    The most resource-efficient solution to allow external business partners to access the APIs while maintaining security and minimizing the impact on existing applications is to implement (or generate) API proxy Mule applications for each API and deploy these proxies to the Mule runtimes in the Partner-subnet. This approach does not require redeploying or duplicating the APIs, and it leverages existing Mule runtimes. The proxies can forward requests to the actual APIs without exposing them directly to the public internet, thus preserving the security and structure of the current deployment.
