After completing the build and test activities for a Mule application that implements a System API, the team should use Runtime Manager to both deploy and monitor the System API implementation. Runtime Manager is a component of Anypoint Platform that provides capabilities for deploying, managing, and monitoring Mule applications and APIs. It allows teams to manage applications and APIs across various environments, ensuring they operate correctly and efficiently.

Explanation

* As per definition of API by Mulesoft , it is Application Programming Interface using HTTP-based protocols. Non-HTTP-based programmatic interfaces are not APIs.

* HTTP-based programmatic interfaces are APIs even if they don’t use REST or JSON. Hence implementation based on Java RMI, CORBA/IIOP, raw TCP/IP interfaces are not API's as they are not using HTTP.

* One more thing to note is FTP was not built to be secure. It is generally considered to be an insecure protocol because it relies on clear-text usernames and passwords for authentication and does not use encryption.

* Data sent via FTP is vulnerable to sniffing, spoofing, and brute force attacks, among other basic attack methods.

Considering the above points only correct option is

-XML over ActiveMQ

- XML over SFTP

- XML/REST over HTTPS

Before API developers implement the API specification, it is crucial for the API designer to publish the API specification to Anypoint Exchange and solicit feedback from the API's consumers. This step aligns with MuleSoft's recommended approach to full lifecycle API development, which emphasizes collaboration and feedback to ensure the API meets the needs and expectations of its consumers.

Generating test cases, creating an API portal, and versioning the API specification are important steps in the development lifecycle, but soliciting feedback ensures that any potential issues or improvements are identified early in the process. This collaborative approach helps in building a more effective and consumer-friendly API.

Object Store v2 (OSv2) in MuleSoft allows multiple applications within the same Anypoint Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) to share data. To achieve this, the OSv2 connector must be configured in each application to access the common persistent object store instance. This configuration enables the applications to read from and write to the same object store, facilitating data sharing. Object Store v2 is designed to be persistent and reliable, making it suitable for scenarios where data needs to be retained and shared across multiple applications.
