Question

An API implementation has been deployed to CloudHub and now needs to be governed. IT will not allocate additional vCore for a new Mule application to act as an API proxy. What is the next step to preserve the current vCore usage, but still allow the Mule application to be managed by API Manager?

Answer

A) Register the same API implementation in Runtime Manager to connect to API Manager
B) Modify the API implementation to use auto-discovery to register with API Manager
C) Upload the Mule application's JAR file to the API instance in API Manager
D) Deploy the same API implementation behind a VPC and configure the VPC to connect to API Manager

The correct answer to this question is B.

Explanation

After a Mule app (an API implementation) has been deployed, it is possible to create a proxy for it, but the proxy would use an additional vCore. In case that it is not wanted to use separate vCore allocations for the API proxy, it is possible to modify an implementation to use something MuleSoft calls auto-discovery to register the app with API Manager, to be able to govern it as there was na API proxy.
