Oracle SOA Suite 12c Essentials — Question 37

Which two statements accurately describe how Oracle Web Services Manager works?

Answer options

• A. On the client side, the agent coordinates a pipeline of policy interceptors that apply policy assertions to a request in a standardized, predetermined order.
• B. On the service side, policy assertions are processed in reverse order of the client side before a request is delivered to the service.
• C. On the client side, the policy manager coordinates a pipeline of agents that apply policy assertions to the request in the order specified by the developer.
• D. On the service side, policy assertions are processed in the same order as on the client side before a request is delivered to the service.

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

Option A is correct as it describes the role of the agent on the client side in applying policy assertions in a specified order. Option C is also correct as it mentions the policy manager's role in coordinating agents for applying assertions. Options B and D are incorrect because they misrepresent the order in which policy assertions are processed on the service side compared to the client side.
