MuleSoft Certified Integration Architect – Level 1 — Question 9

What comparison is true about a CloudHub Dedicated Load Balancer (DLB) vs. the CloudHub Shared Load Balancer (SLB)?

Answer options

• A. Both a DLB and the SLB implement load balancing by sending HTTP requests to workers with the lowest workloads
• B. Both a DLB and the SLB allow the configuration of access control via IP whitelists
• C. Only a DLB allows the configuration of a custom TLS server certificate
• D. Only the SLB can forward HTTP traffic to the VPC-internal ports of the CloudHub workers

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because only the Dedicated Load Balancer (DLB) provides the flexibility to configure a custom TLS server certificate. Options A and B are incorrect as both load balancers share these features, while D is incorrect because the SLB cannot forward traffic to VPC-internal ports, which is a feature exclusive to the DLB.
