In-Depth Explanations: Each question is followed by a detailed explanation, so you not only know the right answer but also understand why it’s correct. For example, in a question about microservices communication, the explanation would cover not just the correct method (like REST vs. messaging) but also why other options might be less effective or unsuitable in certain contexts.
-
Sample Question: Here is a sample question of the Practice Tests:
Q#1: (Concept-Based Question, Multi-Select)
What are some key benefits of using an API Gateway in a Java microservices application?
-
A) Provides a single entry point for all client requests, simplifying client interaction.
-
B) Handles service-to-service communication within the microservices architecture.
-
C) Directly interacts with the database to fetch and update data.
-
D) Manages load balancing and routing requests to the appropriate microservice.
Answer & Explanation:
-
A) Correct. An API Gateway consolidates all client interactions into a single entry point, reducing the complexity for clients.
-
B) Incorrect. The API Gateway does not handle service-to-service communication; this is typically managed by other components within the microservices architecture.
-
C) Incorrect. The API Gateway does not interact directly with databases; it interacts with microservices which may, in turn, interact with databases.
-
D) Correct. The API Gateway is responsible for routing requests and managing load balancing across microservices.
Q#2: (Concept-Based Question, Multi-Select)
Which of the following statements are true about service discovery using tools like Eureka and Consul?
-
A) Eureka is a REST-based service registry for Java applications developed by Netflix.
-
B) Consul provides both service discovery and key-value storage capabilities.
-
C) Eureka and Consul both support health checks to monitor service availability.
-
D) Consul requires a central configuration server to manage service discovery.
Answer & Explanation:
-
A) Correct. Eureka is a service registry developed by Netflix, primarily used for service discovery in Java applications.
-
B) Correct. Consul offers service discovery along with key-value storage and supports various use cases in distributed systems.
-
C) Correct. Both Eureka and Consul support health checks to ensure that only healthy services are included in the registry.
-
D) Incorrect. Consul does not require a central configuration server; it operates as a distributed service discovery and key-value store system.
Q#3: (Code-Based Question, Single-Select)
In a Spring Boot application using Resilience4j, how do you configure a retry mechanism for a REST call?
-
A)
@Configuration
public class RetryConfig {
@Bean
public RetryRegistry retryRegistry() {
return RetryRegistry.of(RetryConfig.custom().maxAttempts(3).build());
}
}
-
B)
@Bean
public Retry retry() {
return Retry.ofDefaults(“myRetry”);
}
-
C)
@Retry(name = “myRetry”, fallbackMethod = “fallback”)
public String callExternalService() {
// Code to call the external service
}
-
D)
@Retryable
public String callExternalService() {
// Code to call the external service
}
Answer & Explanation:
-
A) Incorrect. This code configures a Retry Registry, which is not directly related to method-level retry functionality in the context shown.
-
B) Incorrect. This option shows a way to create a Retry instance but does not integrate it with method-level retry functionality.
-
C) Correct. This option demonstrates how to use the @Retry annotation from Resilience4j to configure a retry mechanism for a method with a fallback.
-
D) Incorrect. The @Retryable annotation is not part of Resilience4j; the correct annotation is @Retry.
Q#4: (Scenario-Based Question, Multi-Select)
You are deploying a microservices application on Kubernetes and need to configure autoscaling. Which of the following are correct regarding Kubernetes autoscaling?
-
A) Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA) adjusts the number of pod replicas based on CPU usage.
-
B) Vertical Pod Autoscaler (VPA) adjusts the CPU and memory requests of individual pods.
-
C) Kubernetes does not support autoscaling of pods based on custom metrics.
-
D) Autoscaling in Kubernetes requires manual intervention for adjusting the number of nodes in a cluster.
Answer & Explanation:
-
A) Correct. HPA automatically scales the number of pod replicas based on metrics like CPU usage or memory usage.
-
B) Correct. VPA is used to automatically adjust the CPU and memory requests of pods based on historical resource usage.
-
C) Incorrect. Kubernetes supports autoscaling based on custom metrics using the Custom Metrics Adapter.
-
D) Incorrect. Kubernetes can autoscale the number of nodes in a cluster using the Cluster Autoscaler.
Q#5: (concept-Based Question, Single-Select)
-
Below are three statements about the Strangler Pattern in microservices:
-
The Strangler Pattern is used to add new features to a microservice.
-
It helps in gradually refactoring a monolithic system into microservices.
-
The Strangler Pattern requires rewriting the entire application at once.
Which of the following is the correct option?
(A) Statements 1 & 3 are correct
(B) Statements 2 & 3 are correct
(C) Statement 2 is correct
(D) All statements are correct
-
Correct Answer: (C)
Explanation:
-
The Strangler Pattern is used for migrating from a monolithic architecture to microservices, not just for adding new features (Statement 1 is incorrect).
-
It allows for gradual refactoring, replacing parts of the monolith with microservices over time (Statement 2 is correct).
-
This approach does not require rewriting the entire application at once (Statement 3 is incorrect).
This course doesn’t just prepare you for interviews, but it prepares you for the real-world challenges you will face as a software developer.
