Federated Search could work too, but not as seamless as Connect.

Wait, can you really access all orgs like that? Sounds too good to be true!

Federated Search sounds familiar, but I can't recall if it provides read-only access across multiple orgs.

I remember practicing a question about Salesforce 2 Salesforce, but I don't think it fits this scenario since it’s more about sharing records between orgs directly.

I've used Salesforce 2 Salesforce before to share data between orgs, but I don't think that's the right solution for this scenario since the users just need read-only access. I'm leaning towards Salesforce Connect as the most appropriate feature.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I know there are a few different ways to share data between Salesforce orgs, but I'm not familiar with the specifics of each feature. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This seems like a straightforward question about integrating data across Salesforce orgs. I think Salesforce Connect is the feature that allows read-only access to customer records across multiple orgs.

Okay, let me see. Salesforce Connect allows you to integrate external data sources, so that could work. But Federated Search also lets you search across multiple orgs, so I'm not totally sure which one is the best fit here.

I'm a bit confused by the non .NET requirement. I'm not sure how that affects the solution. I'll need to do some research on that.

Haha, can you imagine if NTO tried to use External APIs? They'd end up spending more time building the integrations than actually accessing the customer data. Gotta love the Salesforce ecosystem, am I right?

Federated Search seems like a really cool feature, but I'm not sure it's the best fit for this use case. Isn't it more for searching across multiple Salesforce orgs rather than accessing the actual data?
