5. Question #5

   Which of the below matches the most to Library Module Pattern - Connector Pattern...

   • A. Same as ECS with local replica but API module is provide
   • B. So any changes to the external system can notify OS, which OS then gets update from the ERP system (subscription system)
   • C. ... Entity is not in Outsystems but in an external ERP system. IS just makes remote call to p external system/databas
   • D. No data is being kept inside Of. Data retrieval may not be optimized as it needs to traverse two different systems to get the information back. Con:Integration API must support all use cases
   • E. Same as ECS with local replica but synchronization logic is separate
   • F. Pro: Code independence. Consumers of CS is not affected by Sync. Sync can orchestrate several CSV. ... caches only summary data that is frequently lister, joined or searches. Full detail for a single entry is fetched directly from external system. Use when whole database too big or costly to synchronize. Details are only required for single entities (not lists)
   • G. ... Entity is exposed as read-only and API is available to centralize business logic for entity creation/update
   • H. ... a wrapper used to contain the logic, actions and data that will expose code that is inside of external library or to inspect external database and import the data structures so they can be used as entities inside of OSI. ... is needed if data is coming from MULTIPLE external system
   • I. IS will decide which driver to use depending on the data.
   • J. ... tries to fetch data from local cache entity, if not there, get single entry from the external n syste . Cache only that record (read-through caching) Use when whole database too big or costly to synchroniz . Integration only touches a small portion of the databas . Avoid if access to lists of data is needed up front . ... is a pattern with two modules, a connector module that can be used to encapsulate an) external API with the input/output structures and a wrapper module to expose the normalized API to the consumers. . Same as Base ECS pattern, but have a local replic . Store data to serve as a local cach . Pro: Leverage Entity Use, Simpler Integration AP . Con: Less impact on source system

6. Question #6

   What is a best practice for Mobile Application Architecture: Local Storage?

   • A. Do not use local storage(mobile device), instead try to use central storage(server side)
   • B. Map server side static entities into local entities
   • C. Have a local storage inside the CS Module instead of M_CS Module
   • D. Use a centralized local storage for all mobile applications to ensure maintainability
   Reveal Answer
