Question 1

Northern Trail Outfitters has recently experienced intermittent network outages in its

call center. When network service resumes, Sales representatives have inadvertently

created duplicate orders in the manufacturing system because the order was placed but the

return acknowledgement was lost during the outage.

Which solution should an architect recommend to avoid duplicate order booking?

A : Use Outbound Messaging to ensure manufacturing acknowledges receipt of order.

B : Use scheduled apex to query manufacturing system for potential duplicate or missing orders.

C : Implement idempotent design and have Sales Representatives retry order(s) in question.

D : Have scheduled Apex resubmit orders that do not have a successful response.

Answer: A

Question 2

Northern Trail Outfitters has had an increase in requests from other business units to integrate opportunity information with other systems from Salesforce. The developers have started writing asynchronous @future callouts directly into the target systems. The CIO is concerned about the viability of this approach scaling for future growth and has requested a solution recommendation.

What should be done to mitigate the concerns that the CIO has?

A : Implement an ETL tool and perform nightly batch data loads to reduce network traffic using last modified dates on the opportunity object to extract the right records.

B : Develop a comprehensive catalog of Apex classes to eliminate the need for redundant code and use custom metadata to hold the endpoint information for each integration.

C : Refactor the existing future methods to use Enhanced External Services, import Open API 2.0 schemas and update flows to use services instead of Apex.

D : Implement an Enterprise Service Bus for service orchestration, mediation, routing and decouple dependencies across systems.

Answer: C

Question 3

An enterprise architect has requested the Salesforce Integration architect to review the following (see diagram & description) and provide recommendations after carefully considering all constraints of the enterprise systems and Salesforce platform limits.

* About 3,000 phone sales agents use a Salesforce Lightning UI concurrently to check eligibility of a customer for a qualifying offer.

* There are multiple eligibility systems that provides this service and are hosted externally. However, their current response times could take up to 90 seconds to process and return (there are discussions to reduce the response times in future, but no commitments are made).

* These eligibility systems can be accessed through APIs orchestrated via ESB (MuleSoft).

* All requests from Salesforce will have to traverse through customer's API Gateway layer and the API Gateway imposes a constraint of timing out requests after 9 seconds.

Which three recommendations should be made?

Choose 3 answers

A : ESB (Mule) with cache/state management to return a requestID (or) response if available from external system.

B : Recommend synchronous Apex call-outs from Lightning UI to External Systems via Mule and implement polling on API gateway timeout.

C : Use Continuation callouts to make the eligibility check request from Salesforce from Lightning UI at page load.

D : When responses are received by Mule, create a Platform Event in Salesforce via Remote-Call-In and use the empAPI in the lightning UI to serve 3,000 concurrent users.

E : Implement a 'Check Update' button that passes a requestID received from ESB (user action needed).

Answer: A,C
