Returns an array that is the result of applying a transformation function (lambda) to each of the elements.

MuleSoft Doc Ref : https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/dataweave-cookbook-map

Themap operator is a function in Dataweave which iterates over the items in an array and outputs them into a new array. It basically accepts input as a list of items in an array and manipulates the items in the array in order to form a new array as an output.

An object store is a facility for storing objects in or across Mule applications. Mule runtime engine (Mule) uses object stores to persist data for eventual retrieval. Internally, Mule uses objectstores in various filters, routers, and other message processors that need to store states between messages.

Object stores are available in all deployment targets. If you deploy your application to CloudHub, you can also use Object Store V2.

Correct answer is Key/value pair in Object store

MuleSoft Documentation reference : https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/mule-object-stores#use-cases

The List operation returns an array of messages in which: Each message holds the file’s content in its payload. The file’s attributes section carries the file’s metadata (such as name, creation time, and size). The payload is empty if the element is a folder.

Creates reusable APIs and assets designed to beconsumed by other business units

Correct answer is An Object containing all three Mule event Objects

The Scatter-Gather component is a routing event processor that processes a Mule event through different parallel processing routes that contain different event processors. Each route receives a reference to the Mule event and executes a sequence of one or more event processors. Each of these routes uses a separate thread to execute the event processors, and the resulting Mule event can be either the same Mule event without modifications or a new Mule event with its own payload, attributes, and variables. The Scatter-Gather componentthen combines the Mule events returned by each processingroute into a new Mule event that is passed to the next event processor only after every route completes successfully.

The Scatter-Gather component executes each route in parallel, not sequentially.Parallel execution of routes can greatly increase the efficiency of your Mule application and may provide more information than sequential processing.

Correct answer is System layer

System APIs provide a means for insulating the data consumers from the complexity or changes to the underlying backend systems.

MuleSoft recommends three-layered approach to API-led connectivity, highlighting the three layers:

* System APIs

* Process APIs

* Experience APIs

System APIs are the core systems of record underlying core systems of record (e.g. ERPs, key customer and billing systems, databases, etc.). Process APIs allow you to define a common process which the organization can share, and these APIs perform specific functions, provide access to non-central data, and may be built by either Central IT or Line of Business IT. And finally, the Experience APIs are the means by which data can be reconfigured so that it is most easily consumed by its intended audience, all from a common data source.

The three-layered structure allows for a seamless flow of data from systems of record to new experiences, and allows for reusability of assets rather than point to point connections. This approach provides a distributed and tailored approach to architecture, greater flexibility through loose coupling, and deeper operational visibility into what is being built.

Correct answer is Patients from year 2021.

The thing to note here is that year is not a query parameter and not the uri parameter. Hence it will filter all the patients and return the ones for whom year is 2021
