MuleSoft Certified Integration Architect – Level 1 — Question 43

An organization is sizing an Anypoint VPC to extend their internal network to CloudHub.
For this sizing calculation, the organization assumes 150 Mule applications will be deployed among three (3) production environments and will use CloudHub's default zero-downtime feature. Each Mule application is expected to be configured with two (2) CloudHub workers. This is expected to result in several Mule application deployments per hour.
What is the minimum number of IP addresses that should be configured for this VPC that results in the smallest usable private IP address range to support the deployment and zero downtime of these 150 Mule applications (not accounting for any future Mule applications)?

Answer options

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, 10.0.0.0/23 (512 IPs), which provides enough IP addresses for the deployment of 150 Mule applications with two workers each, totaling 300 workers. Option A offers too many IPs, while B and D do not provide sufficient addresses for the required deployments and zero downtime feature.
