Certified Pega Senior System Architect v8.0 (2019) — Question 13

You want to create a new minor version of an application ruleset to add a new feature to your application. The new feature will be made available to users in a phased rollout.
How do you update the application to add the new ruleset version?

Answer options

• A. Lock and roll the existing ruleset, and update the existing application version.
• B. Lock and roll the existing ruleset, and create a new application version.
• C. Create a new application version and add the new ruleset version as a production ruleset.
• D. Create a branch ruleset and a new application, and add the branch ruleset to the application.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because locking and rolling the existing ruleset while updating the application version allows for a smooth transition to the new features without disrupting the current users. Options B and C suggest creating a new application version, which is unnecessary for a minor update, and option D involves creating a branch ruleset that complicates the rollout process.
