Question No. 1

Our service inventory contains the following three services that provide invoice-related data access capabilities: Invoice, InvProc, and Proclnv. These services were created at different times by different project teams and were not required to comply to any design standards. Therefore each of these services has a different data model for representing invoice data. Currently each of these three services has one service consumer: Service Consumer A accesses the Invoice service(1). Service Consumer B (2) accesses the InvProc service, and Service Consumer C (3) accesses the Proclnv service. Each service consumer invokes a data access capability of an invoice-related service, requiring that service to interact with the shared accounting database that is used by all invoice-related services (4, 5, 6). Additionally, Service Consumer D was designed to access invoice data from the shared accounting database directly (7), (Within the context of this architecture. Service Consumer D is labeled as a service consumer because it is accessing a resource that is related to the illustrated service architectures.)

Assuming that the Invoice service, InvProc service, and ProcInv service are part of the same service inventory, what steps would be required to fully apply the Official Endpoint pattern?

AOne of the invoice-related services needs to be chosen as the official service providing invoice data access capabilities. Service Consumers A, B, and C then need to be redesigned to only access the chosen invoice-related service. Because Service Consumer D does not rely on an invoice-related service, it is not affected by the Official Endpoint pattern and can continue to access the accounting database directly. The Service Abstraction principle can be further applied to hide the existence of the shared accounting database and other implementation details from current and future service consumers.

BOne of the invoice-related services needs to be chosen as the official service providing invoice data access capabilities. Service Consumers A, B, and C then need to be redesigned to only access the chosen invoice-related service. Service Consumer D also needs to be redesigned to not access the shared accounting database directly, but to also perform its data access by interacting with the official invoice-related service. The Service Abstraction principle can be further applied to hide the existence of the shared accounting database and other implementation details from current and future service consumers.

CBecause Service Consumers A, B, and C are already carrying out their data access via published contracts, they are not affected by the Official Endpoint pattern. Service Consumer D needs to be redesigned to not access the shared accounting database directly, but to perform its data access by interacting with the official invoice-related service. The Service Abstraction principle can be further applied to hide the existence of the shared accounting database and other implementation details from current and future service consumers.

Question No. 2

Upon reviewing these requirements it becomes evident to you that the Orchestration compound pattern will need to be applied. However, there are additional requirements that need to be fulfilled. To build this service composition architecture, which patterns that is not associated with the Orchestration compound pattern need to also be applied? (Be sure to choose only those patterns that relate directly to the requirements described above. Patterns associated with the Orchestration compound pattern include both the required or core patterns that are part of the basic compound pattern and the optional patterns that can extend the basic compound pattern.)

Question No. 3

Service Consumer A sends a message with a business document to Service A (1), which writes the business document to Database A (2). Service A then forwards the business document to Service B (3), which writes the business document to Database B (4). Service B then responds to Service A with a message containing a failure or success code (5) after which Service A responds to Service Consumer A with a message containing a failure or success code (6). Upon receiving the message, Service Consumer A updates a log table in Database B (7). The log entry is comprised of the entire business document. Database A is dedicated to the Service A service architecture and Database B is a shared database.

There are two problems with this service composition architecture that you are asked to address: First, both Service Consumer A and Service B need to transform the business document data from an XML format to a proprietary Comma Separated Value (CSV) in order to write the data to Database B . This has led to redundant data format transformation logic that has been difficult to keep in synch when Database B changes. Secondly, Service A is an entity service that is being reused by several other service compositions. It has lately developed reliability problems that have caused the service to become unavailable for extended periods. What steps can be taken to solve these problems?

AThe Legacy Wrapper pattern can be applied so that data access to Database B is separated into a new wrapper utility service. This way, the Data Format Transformation pattern only needs to be applied within the logic of this new service which will expose a standardized contract that both Service Consumer A and Service B can access. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied so that messaging queues are established between Service Consumer A and Service A and between Service A and Service B . The Service Autonomy principle can be further applied to Service A in order to establish a more isolated and reliable surrounding infrastructure.

BThe Legacy Wrapper pattern can be applied so that data access to Database B is separated into a new wrapper utility service. This way, the Data Format Transformation pattern only needs to be applied within the logic of this new service which will expose a standardized contract that both Service Consumer A and Service B can access. The Reliable Messaging pattern can be applied so that acknowledgements are passed between Service Consumer A and Service A and between Service A and Service B . The Service Compos ability principle can be further applied to Service A in order to optimize its service architecture for improved participation in multiple service compositions.

CThe service composition can be redesigned with the application of the Contract Centralization pattern so that instead of writing the business document to Database B, Service Consumer A sends the business document to Service B instead. This way, Service B would provide the only location where data format transformation logic for Database B needs to be carried out, which further supports the application of the Service Reusability principle. The Reliable Messaging pattern can be applied so that acknowledgements are passed between Service Consumer A and Service A and between Service A and Service B . The Service Compos ability principle can be further applied to Service A in order to optimize its service architecture for improved participation in multiple service compositions.

Correct Answer: A

Question No. 4

Service Consumer A sends a message to Service A . Before the message arrives with Service A, it is intercepted by Service Agent A (1). which checks the message for compliance to Policy A that is required by Service A . If the message fails compliance, Service Agent A will not allow it to proceed and will instead write the message contents to a log. If the message does comply to the policy, it continues to be transmitted toward Service A, but before it arrives it is intercepted by Service Agent B (2), which validates the security credentials in the message header. If the security credential validation fails, the message is rejected and a runtime exception is raised. If the security credentials are validated, the message is sent to Service A . Upon receiving the message, Service A retrieves a data value from a database and populates the message header with this data value (3) prior to forwarding the message to Service B . Before the message arrives at Service B . it is intercepted by Service Agent C (4) which checks the message for compliance with two policies: Policy B and Policy C . Policy B is identical to Policy A that was checked by Service Agent A . To check for compliance to Policy C . Service Agent C uses the data value added by Service A . If the message complies with both of the policies, it is forwarded to Service B (5), which stores the message contents in its own database.

You are told that Policy B and Policy C have changed. Also, in order to carry out the compliance check of Policy C, Service Agent C will now require a new data value from the Service B database. How can this service composition architecture be changed to fulfill these new requirements?

AThe Policy Centralization pattern can be applied so that only one service agent is used to enforce Policy A and Policy B . Service A is redesigned to first query Service B for the value required by Service Agent C to check the compliance of the updated Policy C . If the compliance check is successful, the message is sent to Service B .

BThe Policy Centralization pattern can be applied so that only one service agent is used to enforce Policy A and Policy B . Service Consumer A is redesigned to first query Service B for the value required by Service Agent C . This way, Service Consumer A can include this value in the message header prior to sending the message to Service A .

CThe Policy Centralization pattern can be applied so that only one service agent is used to enforce Policy A and Policy B . The policy enforcement logic for Policy C is removed from Service Agent C and instead embedded within the logic of Service B . This way, Service B can itself retrieve the value required to check compliance with Policy C . If the message received is not in compliance, Service B will reject it.

DNone of the above.

Correct Answer: D

Question No. 5

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 these three services reveals that each contains some agnostic logic, but because it is bundled together with the non-agnostic logic, the agnostic logic cannot be made available for reuse. The assessment also determines that because Service A and 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.

You are asked to redesign this architecture in order to increase the opportunity for agnostic service logic to be reused and in order to decrease the runtime processing demands so that performance can be improved. What steps can be taken to achieve these goals?

AThe Enterprise Service Bus pattern can be applied to establish an environment whereby the Process Abstraction and Process Centralization patterns are naturally applied, resulting in a clean separation of non-agnostic task services from newly designed agnostic services that are further shaped into reusable services by the application of the Service Reusability principle.

BThe Process Centralization pattern can be applied, resulting in a redesign effort where agnostic logic is removed from the three task services so that they only encapsulate non-agnostic logic. The agnostic logic is then moved to one or more new agnostic services that are shaped into reusable services by the application of the Service Reusability principle. The Process Abstraction pattern is then applied to the redesigned task services Service A and Service B, so that their logic is physically centralized, turning them into orchestrated task services.

CThe Process Abstraction pattern can be applied, resulting in a redesign effort where agnostic logic is removed from the three task services so that they only encapsulate non-agnostic logic. The agnostic logic is then moved to one or more new agnostic services that are shaped into reusable services by the application of the Service Reusability principle. The Orchestration pattern can be further applied to establish an environment whereby the Process Centralization pattern is naturally applied to Services A and B and the State Repository pattern in naturally applied to further help avoid remote communication by providing a local and centralized state database that can be shared by both services.

DNone of the above.
