MuleSoft Certified Platform Architect – Level 1 — Question 50

What is true about API implementations when dealing with legal regulations that require all data processing to be performed within a certain jurisdiction (such as in the USA or the EU)?

Answer options

• A. They must avoid using the Object Store as it depends on services deployed ONLY to the US East region.
• B. They must use a jurisdiction-local external messaging system such as Active MQ rather than Anypoint MQ.
• C. They must be deployed to Anypoint Platform runtime planes that are managed by Anypoint Platform control planes, with both planes in the same jurisdiction.
• D. They must ensure ALL data is encrypted both in transit and at rest.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because it emphasizes the necessity for both runtime and control planes to be located within the same jurisdiction to comply with legal regulations. Option A is incorrect as it incorrectly assumes the Object Store cannot be used; B is wrong because Anypoint MQ can be used if compliant; and D, while important for security, does not specifically address jurisdictional compliance.
