Can you give me an overview of the S90.08B exam?

The SOA Design & Architecture Lab with Services & Microservices exam (code: S90.08B) is the official SOA exam that leads to the SOA Design & Architecture Lab with Services & Microservices certification. It sits at the Professional level of the SOA certification track. It is also connected with related credentials such as SOA Certified Professional, SOA Design & Architecture Specialist. Passing it proves to employers that your skills have been validated by SOA itself, which is why the S90.08B credential keeps showing up in job postings.

What topics are covered in the S90.08B exam?

The official SOA Design & Architecture Lab with Services & Microservices syllabus is organized into 4 main domains. The first three are Service Infrastructure and Governance, Service and Microservices Design, and SOA Architecture Foundations. For the full domain-by-domain breakdown, see the complete Exam Topics outline above.

SOA Design & Architecture Lab with Services & Microservices Sample Questions:

Question 1

Refer to Exhibit.

The architecture for Service A displayed in the figure shows how the core logic of Service A has expanded over time to connect to a database and a proprietary legacy system (1), and to support two separate service contracts (2) that are accessed by different service consumers.
The service contracts are fully decoupled from the service logic. The service logic is therefore coupled to the service contracts and to the underlying implementation resources (the database and the legacy system).
Service A currently has three service consumers. Service Consumer A and Service Consumer B access Service A's two service contracts (3, 4). Service Consumer C bypasses the service contracts and accesses the service logic directly (5).
You are told that the database and legacy system that are currently being used by Service A are being replaced with different products. The two service contracts are completely decoupled from the core service logic, but there is still a concern that the introduction of the new products will cause the core service logic to behave differently than before.
What steps can be taken to change the Service A architecture in preparation for the introduction of the new products so that the impact on Service Consumers A and B is minimized? What further step can be taken to avoid consumer-to-implementation coupling with Service Consumer C?

A. The Service Fagade pattern can be applied to position fagade components between the core service logic and the two service contracts. These fagade components will be designed to regulate the behavior of Service A. The Service Loose Coupling principle can be applied to avoid negative forms of coupling.
B. The Service Fagade pattern can be applied to position fagade components between the core service logic and Service Consumers A and B. These fagade components will be designed to regulate the behavior of Service A. The Service Abstraction principle can be applied to hide the implementation details of the core service logic of Service A, thereby shielding this logic from changes to the implementation. The Schema Centralization pattern can be applied to force Service Consumer C to access Service A via one of its existing service contracts.
C. A third service contract can be added together with the application of the Contract Centralization pattern. This will force Service Consumer C to access Service A via the new service contract. The Service Fagade pattern can be applied to position a fagade component between the new service contract and Service Consumer C in order to regulate the behavior of Service A. The Service Abstraction principle can be applied to hide the implementation details of Service A so that no future service consumers are designed to access any of Service A's underlying resources directly.
D. The Service Fagade pattern can be applied to position fagade components between the core service logic and the implementation resources (the database and the legacy system). These fagade components will be designed to insulate the core service logic of Service A from the changes in the underlying implementation resources. The Schema Centralization and Endpoint Redirection patterns can also be applied to force Service Consumer C to access Service A via one of its existing service contracts.

Question 2

Refer to Exhibit.

Service Consumer A sends Service A a message containing a business document (1). The business document is received by Component A, which keeps the business document in memory and forwards a copy to Component B (3). Component B first writes portions of the business document to Database A (4). Component B then writes the entire business document to Database B and uses some of the data values from the business document as query parameters to retrieve new data from Database B (5).
Next, Component B returns the new date* back to Component A (6), which merges it together with the original business document it has been keeping in memory and then writes the combined data to Database C (7). The Service A service capability invoked by Service Consumer A requires a synchronous request-response data exchange. Therefore, based on the outcome of the last database update, Service A returns a message with a success or failure code back to Service Consumer A (8).
Databases A and B are shared, and Database C is dedicated to the Service A service architecture.
There are several problems with this architecture. The business document that Component A is required to keep in memory (while it waits for Component B to complete its processing) can be very large. The amount of runtime resources Service A uses to keep this data in memory can decrease the overall performance of all service instances, especially when it is concurrently invoked by multiple service consumers. Additionally, Service A can take a long time to respond back to Service Consumer A because Database A is a shared database that sometimes takes a long time to respond to Component B. Currently, Service Consumer A will wait for up to 30 seconds for a response, after which it will assume the request to Service A has failed and any subsequent response messages from Service A will be rejected.
What steps can be taken to solve these problems?

A. None of the above.
B. The Service Statelessness principle can be applied together with the State Repository pattern to establish a state database to which Component A can defer the business document data while it waits for a response from Component B. The Service Autonomy principle can be applied together with the Service Abstraction principle, the Legacy Wrapper pattern, and the Service Fagade pattern in order to isolate Database A so that it is encapsulated by a separate wrapper utility service and to hide the Database A implementation from Service A and to position a fagade component between Component B and the new wrapper service. This fagade component will be responsible for compensating the unpredictable behavior of Database A.
C. The Service Statelessness principle can be applied together with the State Repository pattern to extend Database C so that it also becomes a state database allowing Component A to temporarily defer the business document data while it waits for a response from Component B. The Service Autonomy principle can be applied together with the Legacy Wrapper pattern to isolate Database A so that it is encapsulated by a separate wrapper utility service. The Compensating Service Transaction pattern can be applied so that whenever Service A's response time exceeds 30 seconds, a notification is sent to a human administrator to raise awareness of the fact that the eventual response of Service A will be rejected by Service Consumer A.
D. The Service Statelessness principle can be applied together with the State Repository pattern to establish a state database to which Component A can defer the business document data to while it waits for a response from Component B. The Service Autonomy principle can be applied together with the Service Data Replication pattern to establish a dedicated replicated database for Component B to access instead of shared Database A. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to establish a message queue between Service Consumer A and Service A so that Service Consumer A does not need to remain stateful while it waits for a response from Service A.
