Three of the 614 questions in this pack

Question 1

A developer has created an application based on customer requirements. The customer needs to run the application with the minimum downtime. Which design approach regarding high-availability applications, Recovery Time Objective, and Recovery Point Objective must be taken?

  1. Active/passive results in lower RTO and RPO. For RPO, data synchronization between the two data centers must be timely to allow seamless request flow.
  2. Active/passive results in lower RTO and RPO. For RPO, data synchronization between the two data centers does not need to be timely to allow seamless request flow.
  3. Active/active results in lower RTO and RPO. For RPO, data synchronization between the two data centers does not need to be timely to allow seamless request flow.
  4. Active/active results in lower RTO and RPO. For RPO, data synchronization between the two data centers must be timely to allow seamless request flow.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. Active/active results in lower RTO and RPO. For RPO, data synchronization between the two data centers must be timely to allow seamless request flow.

data synchronization between the two data centers must be timely to allow seamless request flow. Active/active deployments provide lower RTO and RPO compared to active/passive because both data centers are simultaneously processing requests, eliminating failover delays. For RPO to be meaningful in this context, data synchronization must be timely; without it, data loss occurs during failures, defeating the purpose of low RPO. Active/active requires near real-time data replication to maintain consistency across both centers.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Active/passive has higher RTO due to failover time and doesn't achieve the lowest RPO.
  • B. Active/passive architecture is suboptimal for minimizing RTO and RPO, and untimely synchronization would violate RPO requirements.
  • C. While active/active is correct, data synchronization must be timely to achieve low RPO, not optional.

Question 2

A cloud native project is being worked on in which all source code and dependencies are written in Python, Ruby, and/or JavaScnpt. A change in code triggers a notification to the CI/CD tool to run the CI/CD pipeline. Which step should be omitted from the pipeline?

  1. Deploy the code to one or more environments, such as staging and/or production.
  2. Build one of more containers that package up code and all its dependencies.
  3. Compile code.
  4. Run automated tests to validate the code.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. Compile code.

Interpreted languages like Python, Ruby, and JavaScript do not require a compilation step. The CI/CD pipeline for these languages should include building containers (which packages dependencies), running automated tests, and deploying to environments. Compilation is unnecessary and should be omitted for these language types.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Deployment to staging and production environments is a critical CI/CD pipeline step.
  • B. Building containers is essential for packaging code and dependencies in cloud-native applications.
  • D. Running automated tests is a fundamental quality gate in any modern CI/CD pipeline.

Question 3

Which two statements are considered best practices according to the 12-factor app methodology for application design? (Choose two.)

  1. Application code writes its event stream to stdout.
  2. Application log streams are archived in multiple replicated databases.
  3. Application log streams are sent to log indexing and analysis systems.
  4. Application code writes its event stream to specific log files.
  5. Log files are aggregated into a single file on individual nodes.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A, C

A. Application code writes its event stream to stdout. C. Application log streams are sent to log indexing and analysis systems. The 12-factor app methodology mandates that applications treat logs as event streams sent to stdout, allowing the execution environment to handle log stream collection and routing. These logs should be sent to log indexing and analysis systems for centralized monitoring and analysis, not stored in databases or local files on individual nodes.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Archiving log streams in multiple replicated databases violates the 12-factor principle of treating logs as streams.
  • D. Writing event streams to specific log files contradicts the 12-factor requirement to write to stdout.
  • E. Aggregating log files into a single file on individual nodes violates the principle of treating logs as unbuffered streams sent to stdout.

What makes the AUTOCOR hard

The 350-901 code survived, but the exam behind it did not. On 3 February 2026 Cisco replaced DEVCOR with AUTOCOR v2.0, renamed CCNP DevNet to CCNP Automation, and dropped the application-development half of the old blueprint. Any DEVCOR question bank still in circulation is for a retired exam.

Sixty percent of AUTOCOR is Network Automation and Infrastructure as Code: building the same VLAN, OSPF, interface and ACL changes with Ansible, Terraform, RESTCONF against a YANG model, and Python; consuming REST APIs with pagination and authentication; Git operations; and building GitLab CE pipelines. Operations adds model-driven telemetry and secure coding. The new AI in Automation domain is a full 20%: the risks of AI-assisted development, security of AI-based automation, building an MCP server with Python FastMCP, and judging whether an AI recommendation is right. The platforms are IOS XE, ACI, Meraki, Catalyst Center, SD-WAN, ISE and Webex Messaging.
