A company needs to be able to send data from Salesforce to a home grown system behind a corporate firewall. The data needs to be pushed only one way and doesn't need to be sent in real time. The average volume is 2 million records per day.

What should an integration architect consider when choosing the right option in building the integration between the external system and Salesforce?

I think using BULK API is the best option for this volume.

REST API calls might hit limits, so better be cautious.

A third party tool sounds like overkill for just pushing data.

If I recall correctly, making a REST API call from Salesforce to the external system might not be the best option due to the volume.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like the BULK API could be the right choice for handling large data volumes efficiently.

I think we practiced a similar question where we discussed using a third-party tool for staging records. It might be necessary here too.

I remember that with such a high volume, we might hit limits on concurrent requests with the REST API, so that could be a concern.

This is a good one. I like how it's testing our understanding of Salesforce integration patterns. I think I'd start by considering the BULK API, as that seems like the best fit for the high-volume, one-way data transfer requirement.

Okay, got it. The key here is to avoid hitting any API limits on either side. I reckon a third-party integration tool might be the way to go, as that could help stage the data off-platform and manage the high volume.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The requirement to push data one-way behind a corporate firewall adds an extra layer of complexity. I'll need to think carefully about the security and connectivity implications.

This seems like a pretty straightforward integration problem, but the high volume of records is definitely something to consider. I think I'd start by looking at the Salesforce BULK API as an option to handle the data transfer efficiently.

I wonder if they're going to hire a team of supercomputers to handle all that data. Maybe we should just use a fleet of carrier pigeons instead.

C) Due to high volume of records, the external system will need to use a BULK API Rest endpoint to connect to salesforce.

With 2 million records a day, the external system better have a firewall the size of the Great Wall of China!
