Salesforce ARC-101 Exam - Topic 9 Question 13 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's ARC-101 exam

Question #: 13
Topic #: 9

A company needs to integrate a legacy on premise application that can only support SOAP API. After the Integration Architect has evaluated the requirements and volume, they determined that the Fire and Forget integration pattern will be most appropriate for sending data from Salesforce to the external application and getting response back in a strongly typed format.

Which integration capabilities should be used to integrate the two systems?

AOutbound Message for Salesforce to Legacy System direction and SOAP API using Enterprise WSDL for the communication back from legacy system to salesforce.

BPlatform Events for Salesforce to Legacy System direction and SOAP API using Partner WSDL for the communication back from legacy system to salesforce.

CPlatform Events for Salesforce to Legacy System direction and SOAP API using Enterprise WSDL for the communication back from legacy system to salesforce.

DOutbound Message for Salesforce to Legacy System direction and SOAP API using Partner WSDL for the communication back from legacy system to salesforce.

I'm a bit confused about the Fire and Forget pattern. I thought it meant we could use either Outbound Messages or Platform Events, but now I'm not sure which one is better for this integration.

I practiced a similar question where we had to choose between Enterprise and Partner WSDL, and I think Enterprise is usually more suitable for strongly typed responses.

I think Outbound Messages might be the right choice since they are designed for sending data to external systems, but I need to double-check the WSDL options.

I remember studying the differences between Outbound Messages and Platform Events, but I'm not entirely sure which one fits best for this scenario.

Round Robin could be a good option too, as it evenly distributes the traffic across all the nodes without considering their current load.

I'm a bit confused by the options here. I'll need to review my notes on product classification to make sure I understand the distinctions between them.

Hey, at least it's not a REST API integration, right? That would be way too modern for this legacy system!

Option A looks good at first glance, but the question mentions 'Fire and Forget' pattern, so that rules out Outbound Messages. Gotta go with C.

I was about to pick option B, but then I realized the question specifically mentions 'Fire and Forget' pattern, which is more aligned with Platform Events than Outbound Messages.

Yes, that combination will ensure the data is sent from Salesforce to the external application and the response is received in a strongly typed format.
