Ping Identity PAP-001 Exam - Topic 7 Question 20 Discussion

Posted by Rebeca on Aug 17, 2026 at 01:05 PM

The performance testing team finds that an API hosted in a remote datacenter is experiencing higher response times compared to similar APIs hosted onsite. Which option in PingAccess can be used to improve performance in this scenario?

Suggested Answer: D

When APIs are remote, latency is introduced by frequent token validation requests. Enabling Cache Token on the OAuth Resource Server reduces repeated validation calls and improves performance.

Exact Extract:

''The OAuth Resource Server configuration includes a Cache Token option that improves performance by reducing round trips for token validation.''

Option A is incorrect --- key rolling affects cryptographic keys, not API latency.

Option B is incorrect --- virtual hosts control external FQDNs, not performance.

Option C is incorrect --- token attribute size does not significantly affect remote latency.

Option D is correct --- caching tokens reduces validation overhead.

Not sure about A) Reduce the Key Roll Interval, seems unrelated.

I think B) Move the API to a separate Virtual Host could help too.

Is it really that simple? I’m surprised there’s no mention of optimizing the API itself.

Wait, reducing attributes in the ID Token? That seems risky!

I feel like reducing the Key Roll Interval could have an impact, but I’m not confident it’s the best option for this specific scenario.

Moving the API to a separate Virtual Host sounds familiar, but I can't recall if that actually improves response times.

I remember something about caching in PingAccess, so maybe enabling Cache Token on the OAuth Resource Server could be the right choice?

I think reducing the number of attributes in the ID Token might help, but I'm not entirely sure how that affects performance.
