HashiCorp Certified: Vault Associate (002) — Question 39

You are performing a high number of authentications in a short amount of time. You're experiencing slow throughput for token generation. How would you solve this problem?

Answer options

• A. Increase the time-to-live on service tokens
• B. Implement batch tokens
• C. Establish a rate limit quota
• D. Reduce the number of policies attached to the tokens

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as implementing batch tokens allows multiple authentications to be processed together, significantly enhancing throughput. Options A and D do not address the immediate issue of slow token generation, while C may limit the number of requests but does not improve the speed of token creation.
