Which two statements are true with respect to SOA Services?
A. A Service must not have any dependency on the identity of the consumer that invokes it.
B. Services should be aware of the protocol used to invoke them, where they physically exist, and on what type of hardware or operating system they run.
C. In order for Services to be versatile and support reuse, there must be no separation of concerns in terms of what they do and how they are used.
D. Services must not be tied to any particular physical location.
While defining the SOA Requirements Management process, you have identified the need for a SOA repository. Which three items would you store against your Service?
A. Source code
B. Usage Agreements
C. Capacity Metrics
D. Security Policies
E. Build scripts
Whenever an account is past due, the billing system will post an "account past due" event message to a JMS queue. How is the event handled in the service-oriented integration architecture?
A. The Business Process layer In the architecture listens for and handles the event.
B. The Mediation layer in the architecture listens for the event and then routes the event to the appropriate SOA Service.
C. There is a JMS listener for each layer in the architecture, so each layer In the architecture Is responsible for handling events as appropriate.
D. The architecture does not support events generated by a back-end system.
E. The Data Movement layer in the architecture is used to detect and handle events generated by the back-end systems.
Which two statements accurately describe how the service-oriented integration architecture is deployed to physical hardware?
A. Each layer in the architecture must be deployed to separate hardware.
B. All layers of the architecture must be deployed to the same hardware.
C. Multiple layers in the architecture may share hardware.
D. All client access to the architecture must pass through the mediation layer.
E. The Business Process layer and the Business Service layer are deployed to the DMZ tier,
F. The Data Movement layer is deployed to the DMZ tier.
You receive requirements for a business Service which specifies that the Service must guarantee delivery of messages in the presence of component, system, or network failure. Which option best describes how you would design the Service?
A. Service writes message to a fault tolerant database from which the consumer can read the message.
B. Use WS-ReliableMessaging to support a delivery-based QoS for messages.
C. Service posts a message on a database-backed JMS Queue from which the consumer can read the message.
D. Use WS-Policy and WS-Security to support guaranteed delivery-based quality of service.
You have been tasked with designing a "get account" SOA Service. The source data for the service resides in a legacy system that is only accessible via MQ-Series request and response queues. The service consumers have requested a synchronous interface. What integration pattern should the SOA Service employ and why?
A. The SOA Service should implement an asynchronous "get account" method because that matches the legacy system access provided.
B. The SOA Service should implement a synchronous "get account" method because that Is what the service consumers have requested. A new synchronous Interface to the legacy system should be created.
C. The SOA Service should implement two synchronous methods. The first method is a "send account request" and the second method is a "get account response." This meets the synchronous interface request of the service consumers while matching the existing interface to the legacy system.
D. The SOA Service should implement a synchronous "get account" method because that is what the service consumers have requested. The SOA Service should use the synchronous-to-asynchronous bridging pattern and use the existing interface to the legacy system.
E. The SOA Service should implement a synchronous "get account" method because that is what the service consumers have requested. The SOA Service should use the store-and-forward pattern and use the existing interface to the legacy system.
How do the reference business objects, business services, and process models contained in the Application Integration Architecture (AIA) Foundation Pack map to the layers of the service-oriented integration architecture?
A. The reference business objects, business services, and process models map to the Business Services layer.
B. The reference business objects and reference business services map to the Business Services layer and the reference process models map to the Business Process layer.
C. The reference business objects map to the Connectivity layer, the reference business services map to the Business Services layer, and the reference process models map to the Business Process layer.
D. The reference business objects map to the Data Normalization layer, the reference business services map to the Business Services layer, and the reference process models map to the Business Process layer.
E. The reference business objects, business services, and process models map to the Business Process layer.
While monitoring the effectiveness of your existing SOA governance model you notice that employees are not acting, interacting, and collaborating in the best Interest of your SOA initiative. What best approach should you take to address your challenges?
A. Hold meetings for interested employees where they are encouraged to read and understand the standards and policies to which they must adhere
B. Project teams are given ultimatums to adhere to standards and policies or pay the consequences
C. Have visible and vocal support from a sponsor who re-iterates the importance of the SOA initiative and the role that employees will play
D. Project teams are given both ultimatums and inducements to adhere to standards and policies
E. Define a SOA Center of Excellence that hires external consultants to develop Services that adhere to standards and policies
F. Give inducements to project teams to adhere to standards and policies
Lack of an enterprise SOA infrastructure causes several SOA implementation challenges. What are two of the major challenges?
A. Understanding which Services are available, where they reside, their contract, invocationprotocols, and rules for use
B. Provisioning of hardware and software resources to run SOA Services
C. Managing Service versioning and Service life-cycle requirements
D. Migration of business applications to run on SOA infrastructure
One of the goals of your newly formed SOA initiative is for business persons to support business-level service composition. Which option best supports your goal?
A. Services must include a formal contract that specifies the functional and non-functional capabilities provided.
B. Employ a Service naming strategy that details what functionality the Service delivers.
C. Deploy a Service Repository that classifies Services by the name of the back-end system where the implementation code resides.
D. Assign a Business Architect from the SOA COE to support a group of business persons.
