[All Salesforce Certified MuleSoft Platform Integration Architect (Mule-Arch-202) Questions]

49 of A popular retailer is designing a public API for its numerous business partners. Each business partner will invoke the API at the URL 58. https://api.acme.com/partnefs/vl. The API implementation is estimated to require deployment to 5 CloudHub workers.

The retailer has obtained a public X.509 certificate for the name apl.acme.com, signed by a reputable CA, to be used as the server certificate.

Where and how should the X.509 certificate and Mule applications be used to configure load balancing among the 5 CloudHub workers, and what DNS entries should be configured in order for the retailer to support its numerous business partners?

Definitely a CNAME for api.acme.com pointing to the DLB's A record!

Wait, can you really add the cert to the SLB? Sounds off.

I vaguely remember that the shared load balancer might be easier to configure, but I’m not completely confident about where to place the certificate.

I think we practiced a similar question where the certificate was added to the load balancer, but I can't recall if it was the shared or dedicated one.

I remember we discussed how the X.509 certificate should be handled, but I'm not sure if it should go in the Mule application or the load balancer.

The question provides a lot of helpful context, so I feel confident I can work through this. I'll start by mapping out the different components and how they need to be configured to support the business partners.

I'm a bit confused on the difference between the Dedicated Load Balancer (DLB) and the Shared Load Balancer (SLB). I'll need to review the CloudHub documentation to make sure I understand the tradeoffs before deciding.

I'm leaning towards option C. Adding the certificate to a CloudHub Dedicated Load Balancer (DLB) and creating a CNAME for api.acme.com pointing to the DLB's A record seems like the most logical approach.

I'm leaning towards option D. Using the CloudHub Shared Load Balancer (SLB) and adding the certificate to the Mule application seems like a good compromise between security and simplicity.

Option B seems simpler, but I'm not sure if it's the best choice. Wouldn't it be better to have the certificate on the Mule application instead of just the SLB?
