• Question 51:

  Which of the following is a common problem associated with the application of the Policy Centralization pattern?

  A. Changes to a shared policy definition can affect all services that rely upon it, which in turn, can affect all service consumers that have formed dependencies on the corresponding service contracts.

  B. Changes to a shared data model can affect all services that rely upon it, which in turn, can affect all service consumers that have formed dependencies on the corresponding service contracts.

  C. Changes to a shared database can affect all services that rely upon it, which in turn, can affect all service consumers that have formed dependencies on the corresponding service contracts.

  D. None of the above.

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 52:

  When applying the Policy Centralization pattern, if you create a global policy that conflicts with a service-specific policy that you already had in place, then:

  A. you did not correctly apply the Policy Centralization pattern, because it guarantees policy conflict resolution

  B. you need to apply the Intermediate Routing pattern in order to allow messages to avoid one or the other policy

  C. you need to apply the Decoupled Contract pattern in order to separate the conflicting policy definitions

  D. None of the above.

  Correct Answer: D

• Question 53:

  The application of the Rules Centralization pattern achieves the of business rules data within an inventory, but it also business logic associated with business-centric services.

  A. centralization, centralizes

  B. decentralization, centralizes

  C. decentralization, decentralizes

  D. centralization, decentralizes

  Correct Answer: D

• Question 54:

  The Process Centralization pattern is a part of which compound pattern?

  A. Enterprise Service Bus

  B. Orchestration

  C. Federated Endpoint layer

  D. Official Endpoint layer

  Correct Answer: B

• Question 55:

  When applying the Process Abstraction and Process Centralization patterns together, non- agnostic business process logic is:

  A. located in one place and separated from agnostic logic

  B. distributed across multiple locations and separated from agnostic logic

  C. located in one place and combined with agnostic logic

  D. distributed across multiple locations and combined with agnostic logic

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 56:

  Which of the following statements is true?

  A. Enterprise service bus products commonly provide data model transformation features.

  B. Orchestration products commonly provide data model transformation features.

  C. The Service Broker compound pattern includes the Data Model Transformation pattern.

  D. All of these statements are true.

  Correct Answer: D

• Question 57:

  A service composition architecture with the following requirements needs to be created:

  1.

  Services will have different periods of availability.

  2.

  Sometimes the destination of a message cannot be determined until runtime.

  3.

  All the services do not support the same messaging protocol. Of the following choices, which patterns should be used to address these requirements?

  A. Event-Driven Messaging, Intermediate Routing, Atomic Service Transaction

  B. Protocol Bridging, Compensating Service Transaction, Asynchronous Queuing

  C. Intermediate Routing, Data Format Transformation, Asynchronous Queuing

  D. Protocol Bridging, Intermediate Routing, Asynchronous Queuing

  Correct Answer: D

• Question 58:

  Which of the following statements accurately describes the difference between the Atomic Service Transaction pattern and the Compensating Service Transaction pattern?

  A. The Atomic Service Transaction pattern is more suitable in situations that require real-time activity processing, whereas the Compensating Service Transaction pattern is more suitable for long-running activity processing.

  B. The Atomic Service Transaction pattern provides support for the rollback of changes, whereas the Compensating Service Transaction pattern does not.

  C. The Atomic Service Transaction pattern does not rely on pre-defined alternative exception handling logic, whereas the Compensating Service Transaction pattern does.

  D. All of the above.

  Correct Answer: D

• Question 59:

  Which of the following statements is true?

  A. The Enterprise Service Bus pattern is primarily concerned with message processing logic, while the Orchestration pattern is primarily concerned with service composition logic.

  B. The Enterprise Service Bus pattern is primarily concerned with synchronous messaging logic, while the Orchestration pattern is primarily concerned with asynchronous messaging logic.

  C. The Enterprise Service Bus pattern is primarily concerned with service composition logic, while the Orchestration pattern is primarily concerned with message processing logic.

  D. None of these statements are true.

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 60:

  The Invoice service in an accounting firm is heavily reused by different service compositions. The owners of the service decide to protect its integrity by disallowing access to any part of its underlying implementation and further want to avoid the risk of having this service create a single point of failure. Which two patterns should they apply in order to accomplish this goal?

  A. Contract Centralization, Decoupled Contract

  B. Domain Inventory, Redundant Implementation

  C. Data Model Transformation, Service Data Replication

  D. Contract Centralization, Redundant Implementation

  Correct Answer: D
