1. When Service A receives a message from Service Consumer A (1), the message is processed by Component A. This component first invokes Component B (2), which uses values from the message to query Database A in order to retrieve additional data. Component B then returns the additional data to Component A. Component A then invokes Component C (3), which interacts with the API of a legacy system to retrieve a new data value. Component C then returns the data value back to Component A.





Next, Component A sends some of the data It has accumulated to Component D (4), which writes the data to a text file that is placed in a specific folder. Component D then waits until this file is imported into a different system via a regularly scheduled batch import. Upon completion of the import, Component D returns a success or failure code back to Component A. Component A finally sends a response to Service Consumer A (5) containing all of the data collected so far and Service Consumer A writes all of the data to Database B (6). Components A, B, C, and D belong to the Service A service architecture. Database A, the legacy system and the file folders are shared resources within the IT enterprise. Service A is an entity service with a service architecture that has grown over the past few years. As a result of a service inventory-wide redesign project, you are asked to revisit the Service A service architecture in order to separate the logic provided by Components B, C, and D into three different utility services without disrupting the behavior of Service A as it relates to Service Consumer A.

What steps can be taken to fulfill these requirements?

2. Service A is a SOAP-based Web service with a functional context dedicated to invoice-related processing. Service B is a REST-based utility service that provides generic data access to a database.

In this service composition architecture, Service Consumer A sends a SOAP message containing an invoice XML document to Service A (1). Service A then sends the invoice XML document to Service B (2), which then writes the invoice document to a database (3).





The data model used by Service Consumer A to represent the invoice document is based on XML Schema A. The service contract of Service A is designed to accept invoice documents based on XML Schema

B. The service contract for Service B is designed to accept invoice documents based on XML Schema A. The database to which Service B needs to write the invoice record only accepts entire business documents in a proprietary Comma Separated Value (CSV) format.

Due to the incompatibility of the XML schemas used by the services, the sending of the invoice document from Service Consumer A through to Service B cannot be accomplished using the services as they currently exist. Assuming that the Contract Centralization pattern is being applied and that the Logic Centralization pattern is not being applied, what steps can be taken to enable the sending of the invoice document from Service Consumer A to the database without adding logic that will increase the runtime performance requirements?

3. Our service inventory contains the following three services that provide Invoice-related data access capabilities: Invoice, InvProc and Proclnv. These services were created at different times by different project teams and were not required to comply with any design standards. Therefore, each of these services has a different data model for representing invoice data.





Currently, each of these three services has a different service consumer: Service Consumer A accesses the Invoice service (1), Service Consumer B (2) accesses the InvProc service, and Service Consumer C (3) accesses the Proclnv service. Each service consumer invokes a data access capability of an invoice-related service, requiring that service to interact with the shared accounting database that is used by all invoice-related services (4, 5, 6).

Additionally, Service Consumer D was designed to access invoice data from the shared accounting database directly (7). (Within the context of this architecture, Service Consumer D is labeled as a service consumer because it is accessing a resource that is related to the illustrated service architectures.)

Assuming that the Invoice service, InvProc service and Proclnv service are part of the same service inventory, what steps would be required to fully apply the Official Endpoint pattern?

4. Service A is a task service that sends Service B a message (2) requesting that Service B return data back to Service A in a response message (3). Depending on the response received, Service A may be required to send a message to Service C (4) for which it requires no response.





Before it contacts Service B, Service A must first retrieve a list of code values from its own database (1) and then place this data into its own memory. If it turns out that it must send a message to Service C, then Service A must combine the data it receives from Service B with the data from the code value list in order to create the message it sends to Service C. If Service A is not required to invoke Service C, it can complete its task by discarding the code values.

Service A and Service C reside in Service Inventory A. Service B resides in Service Inventory B.

You are told that the services in Service Inventory A were designed with service contracts that are based on different design standards and technologies than the services In Service Inventory B. As a result, Service A is a SOAP-based Web service and Service B Is a REST service that exchanges JSON-formatted messages. Therefore, Service A and Service B cannot currently communicate. Furthermore, Service C is an agnostic service that is heavily accessed by many concurrent service consumers. Service C frequently reaches its usage thresholds, during which it is not available and messages sent to it are not received.

What steps can be taken to solve these problems?

5. Service A, Service B, and Service C are entity services, each designed to access the same shared legacy system. Service A manages order entities, Service B manages invoice entities, and Service C manages customer entities. Service A, Service B, and Service C are REST services and are frequently reused by different service compositions. The legacy system uses a proprietary file format that Services A, B, and C need to convert to and from.





You are told that compositions involving Service A, Service B, and Service C are unnecessarily complicated due to the fact that order, invoice, and customer entitles are all related to each other. For example, an order has a customer, an invoice has an order, and so on. This results In calls to multiple services to reconstruct a complete order document. You are asked to architect a solution that will simplify the composition logic by minimizing the number of services required to support simple business functions like order management or bill payment. Additionally, you are asked to reduce the amount of redundant data transformation logic that is found in Services A, B, and C.

How will you accomplish these goals?

6. Service A is an entity service that provides a Get capability which returns a data value that is frequently changed.





Service Consumer A invokes Service A in order to request this data value (1). For Service A to carry out this request, it must invoke Service B (2), a utility service that interacts (3, 4) with the database in which the data value is stored. Regardless of whether the data value changed, Service B returns the latest value to Service A (5), and Service A returns the latest value to Service Consumer A (6).

The data value is changed when the legacy client program updates the database (7). When this change will occur is not predictable. Note also that Service A and Service B are not always available at the same time.

Any time the data value changes, Service Consumer A needs to receive It as soon as possible. Therefore, Service Consumer A initiates the message exchange shown In the figure several times a day. When it receives the same data value as before, the response from Service A Is ignored. When Service A provides an updated data value, Service Consumer A can process it to carry out its task.

The current service composition architecture is using up too many resources due to the repeated invocation of Service A by Service Consumer A and the resulting message exchanges that occur with each invocation.

What steps can be taken to solve this problem?

A. The Event-Driven Messaging pattern can be applied by establishing a subscriber-publisher relationship between Service A and Service

B. This way, every time the data value is updated, an event is triggered and Service B, acting as the publisher, can notify Service A, which acts as the subscriber. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied between Service A and Service B so that the event notification message sent out by Service B will be received by Service A, even when Service A is unavailable.

B. The Event-Driven Messaging pattern can be applied by establishing a subscriber-publisher relationship between Service Consumer A and Service

A. This way, every time the data value is updated, an event is triggered and Service A, acting as the publisher, can notify Service Consumer A, which acts as the subscriber. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied between Service Consumer A and Service A so that the event notification message sent out by Service A will be received by Service Consumer A, even when Service Consumer A is unavailable.

C. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied so that messaging queues are established between Service A and Service B and between Service Consumer A and Service A. This way, messages are never lost due to the unavailability of Service A or Service B.

D. The Event-Driven Messaging pattern can be applied by establishing a subscriber-publisher relationship between Service Consumer A and a database monitoring agent introduced through the application of the Service Agent pattern. The database monitoring agent monitors updates made by the legacy client to the database. This way, every time the data value is updated, an event is triggered and the database monitoring agent, acting as the publisher, can notify Service Consumer A, which acts as the subscriber. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied between Service Consumer A and the database monitoring agent so that the event notification message sent out by the database monitoring agent will be received by Service Consumer A, even when Service Consumer A is unavailable.
