1. You are the lead developer for an Appian project, in a backlog refinement meeting. You are presented with the following user story:

“As a restaurant customer, I need to be able to place my food order online to avoid waiting in line for takeout.”

Which two functional acceptance criteria would you consider ‘good’?

A. The user will click Save, and the order information will be saved in the ORDER table and have audit history.

B. The user will receive an email notification when their order is completed.

C. The system must handle up to 500 unique orders per day.

D. The user cannot submit the form without filling out all required fields.

2. You are on a protect with an application that has been deployed to Production and is live with users.

The client wishes to increase the number of active users.

You need to conduct load testing to ensure Production can handle the increased usage Review the specs for four environments in the following image.





Which environment should you use for load testing7

3. You are asked to design a case management system for a client. In addition to storing some basic metadata about a case, one of the client’s requirements is the ability for users to update a case. The client would like any user in their organization of 500 people to be able to make these updates. The users are all based in the company's headquarters, and there will be frequent cases where users are attempting to edit the same case. The client wants to ensure no information is lost when these edits occur and does not want the solution to burden their process administrators with any additional effort.

Which data locking approach should you recommend?

4. Users must be able to navigate throughout the application while maintaining complete visibility in the application structure and easily navigate to previous locations.

Which Appian Interface Pattern would you recommend?

5. As part of your implementation workflow, users need to retrieve data stored in a third-party Oracle database on an interface. You need to design a way to query this information.

How should you set up this connection and query the data?

A. Configure a Query Database node within the process model. Then, type in the connection information, as well as a SQL query to execute and return the data in process variables.

B. Configure a timed utility process that queries data from the third-party database daily, and stores it in the Appian business database. Then use a!queryEntity using the Appian data source to retrieve the data.

C. Configure an expression-backed record type, calling an API to retrieve the data from the third-party database. Then, use a!queryRecordType to retrieve the data.

D. In the Administration Console, configure the third-party database as a “New Data Source.” Then, use a!queryEntity to retrieve the data.

6. 1.You are reviewing the Engine Performance Logs in Production for a single application that has been live for six months. This application experiences concurrent user activity and has a fairly sustained load during business hours. The client has reported performance issues with the application during business hours.

During your investigation, you notice a high Work Queue - Java Work Queue Size value in the logs. You also notice unattended process activities, including timer events and sending notification emails, are taking far longer to execute than normal.

The client increased the number of CPU cores prior to the application going live.

What is the next recommendation?

A. Add more engine replicas.

B. Optimize slow-performing user interfaces.

C. Add more application servers.

D. Add execution and analytics shards

7. You have 5 applications on your Appian platform in Production. Users are now beginning to use multiple applications across the platform, and the client wants to ensure a consistent user experience across all applications.

You notice that some applications use rich text, some use section layouts, and others use box layouts.

The result is that each application has a different color and size for the header.

What would you recommend to ensure consistency across the platform?

A. Create constants for text size and color, and update each section to reference these values.

B. In the common application, create a rule that can be used across the platform for section headers, and update each application to reference this new rule.

C. In the common application, create one rule for each application, and update each application to reference its respective rule.

D. In each individual application, create a rule that can be used for section headers, and update each application to reference its respective rule.

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

A. An Appian Cloud HA instance is composed of multiple active nodes running in different availability zones in different regions.

B. Data and transactions are continuously replicated across the active nodes to achieve redundancy and avoid single points of failure.

C. A typical Appian Cloud HA instance is composed of two active nodes.

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.

9. You are developing a case management application to manage support cases for a large set of sites. One of the tabs in this application s site Is a record grid of cases, along with Information about the site corresponding to that case. Users must be able to filter cases by priority level and status.

You decide to create a view as the source of your entity-backed record, which joins the separate case/site tables (as depicted in the following Image).





Which three column should be indexed?

10. While working on an application, you have identified oddities and breaks in some of your components.

How can you guarantee that this mistake does not happen again in the future?

A. Design and communicate a best practice that dictates designers only work within the confines of their own application.

B. Ensure that the application administrator group only has designers from that application’s team.

C. Create a best practice that enforces a peer review of the deletion of any components within the application.

D. Provide Appian developers with the “Designer” permissions role within Appian. Ensure that they have only basic user rights and assign them the permissions to administer their application.

11. Your client's customer management application is finally released to Production. After a few weeks of small enhancements and patches, the client is ready to build their next application. The new application will leverage customer information from the first application to allow the client to launch targeted campaigns for select customers in order to increase sales. As part of the first application, your team had built a section to display key customer information such as their name, address, phone number, how long they have been a customer, etc. A similar section will be needed on the campaign record you are building. One of your developers shows you the new object they are working on for the new application and asks you to review it as they are running into a few issues.

What feedback should you give?

12. You have an active development team (Team A) building enhancements for an application (App X) and are currently using the TEST environment for User Acceptance Testing (UAT).

A separate operations team (Team B) discovers a critical error in the Production instance of App X that they must remediate. However, Team B does not have a hotfix stream for which to accomplish this. The available environments are DEV, TEST, and PROD.

Which risk mitigation effort should both teams employ to ensure Team A’s capital project is only minorly interrupted, and Team B’s critical fix can be completed and deployed quickly to end users?

A. Team B must communicate to Team A which component will be addressed in the hotfix to avoid overlap of changes. If overlap exists, the component must be versioned to its PROD state before being remediated and deployed, and then versioned back to its latest development state. If overlap does not exist, the component may be remediated and deployed without any version changes.

B. Team A must analyze their current codebase in DEV to merge the hotfix changes into their latest enhancements. Team B is then required to wait for the hotfix to follow regular deployment protocols from DEV to the PROD environment.

C. Team B must address changes in the TEST environment. These changes can then be tested and deployed directly to PROD. Once the deployment is complete, Team B can then communicate their changes to Team A to ensure they are incorporated as part of the next release.

D. Team B must address the changes directly in PROD. As there is no hotfix stream, and DEV and TEST are being utilized for active development, it is best to avoid a conflict of components. Once Team A has completed their enhancements work, Team B can update DEV and TEST accordingly.
