[All MuleSoft Integration Architect I Questions]

A retail company is implementing a MuleSoft API to get inventory details from two vendors by Invoking each vendor's online applications. Due to network issues, the invocations to the vendor applications are timing out intermittently, but the requests are successful after re-invoking each

What is the most performant way of implementing the API to invoke each vendor application and to retry invocations that generate timeout errors?

AUse a For-Each scope to invoke the two vendor applications in series, one after the other.
Place the For-Each scope inside an Until-Successful scope to retry requests that raise timeout errors.

BUse a Choice scope to Invoke each vendor application on a separate route.
Place the Choice scope inside an Until-Successful scope to retry requests that raise
timeout errors.

CUse a Scatter-Gather scope to invoke each vendor application on a separate route.
Use an Until-Successful scope in each route to retry requests that raise timeout errors.

DUse a Round-Robin scope to invoke each vendor application on a separate route.
Use a Try-Catch scope in each route to retry requests that raise timeout errors.

I'd go with Option B as well. It's a simple and straightforward solution that addresses the specific problem at hand. No need to overcomplicate things.

Haha, I bet the vendor apps are running on a hamster-powered server. That's why the timeouts are happening! Option B is definitely the way to go here.

It's a good idea to have the retry mechanism in place within the Choice scope.

Yeah, using a Choice scope to invoke each vendor application separately makes sense.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Option C with the Scatter-Gather scope also looks like it could work well. But I guess the Until-Successful scope in each route might be overkill if we're just dealing with timeouts.

I agree, Option A sounds like the best approach. It keeps it simple and should help with retrying the requests that timeout.

Option A seems like the most efficient way to handle the timeouts. Using a For-Each scope and an Until-Successful scope should do the trick.

I agree, Option B seems like the right choice here. Separating the vendor invocations and retrying the failed requests is a smart way to ensure the API is robust and performant.

Option C could be a good approach as well. Using Scatter-Gather to invoke vendors in parallel and retrying failed requests could improve performance.

I think Option A could work too. Invoking the vendors in series and retrying failed requests might be more straightforward.
