SOA Design & Architecture Lab with Services & Microservices - S90.08B Exam Questions

QUESTION NO: 1
Refer to Exhibit.

Services A, B, and C are non-agnostic task services. Service A and Service B use the same shared state database to defer their state data at runtime.
An assessment of the three services reveals that each contains some agnostic logic that cannot be made available for reuse because it is bundled together with non-agnostic logic.
The assessment also determines that because Service A, Service B and the shared state database are each located in physically separate environments, the remote communication required for Service A and Service B to interact with the shared state database is causing an unreasonable decrease in runtime performance.
How can the application of the Orchestration pattern improve this architecture?

A. The application of the Orchestration pattern will result in an environment whereby the Compensating Service Transaction is automatically applied, resulting In the opportunity to create sophisticated exception logic that can be used to compensate for the performance problems caused by Services A and B having to remotely access the state database. The API Gateway and Service Broker patterns are also automatically applied, providing common transformation functions in a centralized processing layer to help overcome any disparity in the service contracts that will need to be created for the new agnostic services. B. The application of the Orchestration pattern will result in an environment whereby the non-agnostic logic can be cleanly separated from the agnostic logic that exists in Services A, B, and C, resulting in the need to design new agnostic services with reuse potential assured through the application of the Service Reusability principle. The State Repository pattern, which is supported by and local to the orchestration environment, provides a central state database that can be shared by Services A and B. The local state database avoids problems with remote communication. C. The Orchestration pattern is not applicable to this architecture because it does not support the hosting of the required state repository. D. The application of the Orchestration pattern will result in an environment whereby the Official Endpoint, State Repository, and Service Data Replication patterns are automatically applied, allowing the shared state database to be replicated via official service endpoints for Services A and B so that each task service can have its own dedicated state database.

QUESTION NO: 2
Refer to Exhibit.

Service Consumer A sends a message to Service A. There are currently three duplicate implementations of Service A (Implementation 1, Implementation 2 and Implementation 3). The message sent by Service Consumer A is intercepted by Service Agent A (1), which determines at runtime which implementation of Service A to forward the message to. All three implementations of Service A reside on the same physical server.
You are told that despite the fact that duplicate implementations of Service A exist, performance is still poor at times. You are also informed that a new service capability will soon need to be added to Service A to introduce functionality that will require access to a shared database being used by many other clients and applications in the IT enterprise. This is expected to add further performance demands on Service A.
How can this service architecture be changed to improve performance in preparation for the addition of the new service capability?

A. The Standardized Service Contract principle can be applied to ensure that the new service capability extends the existing service contract in a manner that is compliant with current design standards. The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied to establish separate implementations of Service A that include duplicate databases with copies of the data that Service A requires from the shared database. B. The Service Loose Coupling principle can be applied together with the Standardized Service Contract principle to ensure that Service Consumer A is not indirectly coupled to the shared database after the new service capability is added to the service contract. The Legacy Wrapper pattern can be applied to establish a new utility service that will provide standardized data access service capabilities for the shared database. C. The Service Autonomy principle can be applied to further isolate the individual implementations of Service A by separating them onto different physical servers. When the new service capability is added, the Service Data Replication pattern can be applied to give each implementation of Service A its own copy of the data it requires from the shared database. D. The Service Autonomy principle can be applied to further isolate the individual implementations of Service A by separating them onto different physical servers. When the new service capability is added, the State Repository pattern can be applied to give each implementation of Service A its own copy of the data it requires from the shared database.
