Topic #: 1

[All Salesforce Certified B2C Solution Architect (Arch-302) Questions]

Universal Containers (UC) is sending Invoice data from an external ERP system into their Salesforce org. Management is worried about data storage in their org, and after some analyses, they have identified the ERP Invoice records responsible for over 40% of the data storage. Their current business process does not require a Salesforce user to edit these records, so they can be read-only.

What recommendation should a Solution Architect make in order to reduce the storage size in Salesforce and still be able to access the ERP Invoice records in Salesforce?

AUse Change Data Capture to sync Invoice records

BBuild a custom solution to view the ERP Invoice records in Salesforce

CUse Platform Events to sync Invoice record changes

DUse Salesforce Connect/External Objects (with custom Apex adapters)

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

This answer is correct because it is a way to reduce the storage size in Salesforce and still be able to access the ERP Invoice records in Salesforce. Salesforce Connect/External Objects can be used to display external data in Salesforce without copying or storing it. Custom Apex adapters can be used to connect to any external system that has a web service API, such as an ERP system.

B could work, but it sounds like extra work for no real gain.

Using Platform Events sounds interesting, but I don't think it addresses the storage issue directly like Salesforce Connect would.

I feel like building a custom solution might be overkill for just viewing records. There has to be a more efficient way.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think Change Data Capture is more for tracking changes rather than reducing storage.

I remember we discussed using Salesforce Connect for external data access. It seems like a good fit here since they don't need to edit the records.

I'm not too familiar with some of these Salesforce features, like Change Data Capture and Platform Events. I'll need to do some research to understand the pros and cons of each option before making a recommendation.

The key here is that the ERP Invoice records don't need to be editable in Salesforce, so I'm leaning towards the Salesforce Connect/External Objects solution. That way, we can access the data without storing it directly in Salesforce.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on the differences between the options. I'll need to review the details of Change Data Capture, Platform Events, and Salesforce Connect to decide which one would work best in this scenario.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Couldn't we just use Change Data Capture (Option A) to sync the data without storing it all in Salesforce? Seems simpler than setting up a custom adapter.
