Free Appian ACD301 Exam Dumps Questions & Answers

You are required to create an integration from your Appian Cloud instance to an application hosted within a customer's self-managed environment.
The customer's IT team has provided you with a REST API endpoint to test with: https://internal.network/api/api/ping.
Which recommendation should you make to progress this integration?

• A.  Deploy the API/service into Appian Cloud.
• B.  Set up a VPN tunnel.
• C.  Add Appian Cloud's IP address ranges to the customer network's allowed IP listing.
• D.  Expose the API as a SOAP-based web service.

What are two advantages of having High Availability (HA) for Appian Cloud applications?

• A.  In the event of a system failure, your Appian instance will be restored and available to your users in less than 15 minutes, having lost no more than the last 1 minute worth of data.
• B.  Data and transactions are continuously replicated across the active nodes to achieve redundancy and avoid single points of failure.
• C.  An Appian Cloud HA instance is composed of multiple active nodes running in different availability zones in different regions.
• D.  In the event of a system failure, your Appian instance will be restored and available to your users in less than 15 minutes, having lost no more than the last 1 minute worth of data. This is an advantage of having HA, as it guarantees a high level of service availability and reliability for your Appian instance. If one of the nodes fails or becomes unavailable, the other node will take over and continue to serve requests without any noticeable downtime or data loss for your users.
• E.  A typical Appian Cloud HA instance is composed of two active nodes.

Your Appian project just went live with the following environment setup: DEV > TEST (SIT/UAT) > PROD. Your client is considering adding a support team to manage production defects and minor enhancements, while the original development team focuses on Phase 2. Your client is asking you for a new environment strategy that will have the least impact on Phase 2 development work. Which option involves the lowest additional server cost and the least code retrofit effort?

• A.  Phase 2 development work stream: DEV > TEST (SIT/UAT) > PROD Production support work stream: DEV2 > TEST (SIT/UAT) > PROD
• B.  Phase 2 development work stream: DEV > TEST (SIT) > STAGE (UAT) > PROD Production support work stream: DEV > TEST2 (SIT/UAT) > PROD
• C.  Phase 2 development work stream: DEV > TEST (SIT/UAT) > PROD
  Production support work stream: DEV > TEST2 (SIT/UAT) > PROD
• D.  Phase 2 development work stream: DEV > TEST (SIT) > STAGE (UAT) > PROD Production support work stream: DEV2 > STAGE (SIT/UAT) > PROD

You are on a call with a new client, and their program lead is concerned about how their legacy systems will integrate with Appian. The lead wants to know what authentication methods are supported by Appian. Which three authentication methods are supported?

• A.  CAC
• B.  Active Directory
• C.  API Keys
• D.  SAML
• E.  OAuth
• F.  Biometrics

You are running an inspection as part of the first deployment process from TEST to PROD. You receive a notice that one of your objects will not deploy because it is dependent on an object from an application owned by a separate team.
What should be your next step?

• A.  Push a functionally viable package to PROD without the dependencies, and plan the rest of the deployment accordingly with the other team's constraints.
• B.  Create your own object with the same code base, replace the dependent object in the application, and deploy to PROD.
• C.  Halt the production deployment and contact the other team for guidance on promoting the object to PROD.
• D.  Check the dependencies of the necessary object. Deploy to PROD if there are few dependencies and it is low risk.
