TA03 exam questions

1. Question 1

   Single answer

   A developer who has worked on several production automations is leaving the organisation. Their access is being removed as part of the standard leaver process.

   Which step closes the exposure the departure creates?

   Response:

   • A

     Change any credential the developer could have read or handled during their work.

   • B

     Reassign ownership of the automations and Objects they built, so that each one has a named maintainer.

   • C

     Re-import the automations they built from their release files, so that no unreviewed change remains.

   • D

     Review the session logs of the automations they built, to confirm nothing unexpected has run.

   Reveal answer

   Correct answer

   • A

     Change any credential the developer could have read or handled during their work.

   Explanation

   Removing an account closes the door the person would use, and it does nothing about a secret they may already know. A credential seen during development stays valid after the account that saw it is gone, which is why the leaver process for this estate has to reach the credential store as well as the directory.

2. Question 2

   Multiple answer

   A Technical Architect is configuring high availability and disaster recovery for the business processes that a Blue Prism digital workforce runs.

   Which two considerations apply to keeping those business processes available?

   (Choose two.)

   Response:

   • A

     Resource pools and active work queues can be used to distribute work to whichever Runtime Resources are currently online

   • B

     Runtime Resources are stateful devices, so failure and planned maintenance events have to be reflected in the process design and in the scheduling approach

   • C

     Placing a load balancer in front of two application servers, so connections move to the surviving server, will ensure high availability of an automated process

   • D

     Set the option inside a Blue Prism process that forces the process to fail over to an alternative Runtime Resource in the event of a failure during execution

   Reveal answer

   Correct answer

   • A

     Resource pools and active work queues can be used to distribute work to whichever Runtime Resources are currently online

   • B

     Runtime Resources are stateful devices, so failure and planned maintenance events have to be reflected in the process design and in the scheduling approach

   Explanation

   Pooling the resources and driving them from a shared queue means the surviving members keep collecting items when one member drops out. Availability of the work becomes a property of the pool rather than of any single machine.

   A session that stops mid-item takes its in-memory state with it, and only work already committed to a queue survives. Making processes restartable from the queue, and scheduling around maintenance windows, is what turns an outage into a recoverable event.

3. Question 3

   Single answer

   A Technical Architect is evaluating whether an existing infrastructure can support unattended automations that run continuously through the day.

   What should the evaluation cover?

   Response:

   • A

     Infrastructure capacity, scheduling, workload distribution, resilience and operational monitoring

   • B

     Development-environment concurrency measurements, extrapolated with a fixed allowance for growth

   • C

     Developer headcount in Process Studio, licence consumption, and interactive-client provisioning

   • D

     Decommissioning of the Application Servers, on the reasoning that fewer components mean fewer failures

   Reveal answer

   Correct answer

   • A

     Infrastructure capacity, scheduling, workload distribution, resilience and operational monitoring

   Explanation

   Continuous running removes the quiet periods an estate normally recovers in, so capacity has to hold at the busiest hour and the platform has to survive a component failure with nobody watching. Scheduling, distribution, resilience and monitoring together decide whether the infrastructure can sustain that pattern rather than merely begin it.

5. Question 4

   Single answer

   A Technical Architect is defining how administrators and controllers will reach Blue Prism components remotely across the corporate network.

   Which is a primary security consideration for that remote access?

   Response:

   • A

     Restricting remote access to a dedicated management VLAN and treating that segmentation as sufficient protection

   • B

     Allowing controllers to open a session directly from their own workstations to any Runtime Resource whenever intervention is needed

   • C

     Sharing one administrative account among the controllers so a remote session can be established quickly during an incident

   • D

     Encrypting the remote-access session so that credentials and the data on screen cannot be read in transit

   Reveal answer

   Correct answer

   • D

     Encrypting the remote-access session so that credentials and the data on screen cannot be read in transit

   Explanation

   The remote channel carries both the sign-in and whatever the automation has on screen, which is live customer or transaction data. Encrypting the channel is what stops an observer on the network from collecting either.

6. Question 5

   Single answer

   A Technical Architect is designing a platform for automations that must process items from multiple source systems and provide operational traceability.

   What should the design cover?

   Response:

   • A

     Work queue usage, logging, auditability, exception handling, and monitoring.

   • B

     Local files on each Runtime Resource, holding the items that machine is responsible for.

   • C

     Screenshots of each processed item, attached to the developer documentation for the automation.

   • D

     A single consolidated queue for all source systems, with items distinguished only by their content.

   Reveal answer

   Correct answer

   • A

     Work queue usage, logging, auditability, exception handling, and monitoring.

   Explanation

   Traceability is assembled from all of them: the queue records what arrived and what became of it, logging and audit show how and by whom, exception handling classifies what failed, and monitoring surfaces it while it can still be acted on.
