C makes the most sense, but I'm not 100% sure.

Wait, I thought authentication was just about passwords?

B sounds more like data integrity than authentication.

I think A is misleading. It's not just about one individual.

I thought D could be relevant since access is important, but I guess that's more about availability than authentication itself.

I feel like I've seen a question similar to this before, and C was the answer there too. It just makes sense for authentication.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about how authentication is different from authorization. Maybe that's why A is misleading?

I think option C sounds right because authentication is all about verifying who someone is, right?

I think the key here is enabling the two authors to share the workload when one is absent. Based on that, I'm leaning towards option D - adding both authors to a participant step in the workflow.

This looks like a pretty straightforward question on event handling in Salesforce B2B Commerce. I'm pretty confident I can handle this one.

Yeah, I recall a practice question where read-only nodes were mentioned, but I can't remember if they become primary automatically during a failover.

I'm a bit confused by the options here. I don't recognize "FIREWALL ADD-PORT" or "OPEN PORT" as valid Dockerfile commands. I'll have to go with EXPOSE 8080.
