MuleSoft Certified Developer – Level 1 — Question 96

A flow has a JMS Publish consume operation followed by a JMS Publish operation. Both of these operations have the default configurations.
Which operation is asynchronous and which one is synchronous?

Answer options

• A. Publish consume: Synchronous. Publish: Asynchronous.
• B. Publish consume: Asynchronous. Publish: Synchronous.
• C. Publish consume: Asynchronous. Publish: Asynchronous.
• D. Publish consume: Synchronous. Publish: Synchronous.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The JMS Publish consume operation is synchronous, meaning it waits for a response before proceeding, while the JMS Publish operation is asynchronous, allowing the flow to continue without waiting for a response. Therefore, option A accurately describes the behavior of these operations, while the other options incorrectly categorize the nature of either operation.
