Modern Salesforce implementations span multiple clouds (Sales, Service, Marketing), ERP systems, data lakes, and SaaS tools. Without deliberate data architecture, teams face slow queries, duplicate records, brittle integrations, and audit risk. This course teaches you to design scalable Salesforce data models and connect them safely to the enterprise.
Through hands-on labs, you'll practice selecting the right sync/async integration patterns, building governed ERDs, applying field-level security and sharing policies, crafting selective queries with custom indexes, orchestrating bulk migrations, and monitoring with Event Monitoring dashboards.
This course is designed for Salesforce professionals and aspiring architects who want to master data architecture and integration at an advanced, job-ready level.
Learners should be familiar with Salesforce Admin basics, SOQL, relational DB concepts, JSON/XML, and HTTP fundamentals. Requires: Dev Org, Postman, Salesforce CLI installed.
By the end, you'll deliver a production-ready architecture blueprint with a governed data model, integration contracts, migration plan, and operational metrics ready to scale in enterprise environments.
Master enterprise Salesforce data architecture from modeling to production governance. Apply entity design patterns, ERD best practices, and Schema Builder diagrams; implement security controls (Profiles, Permission Sets, OWD, role hierarchy, sharing rules, FLS, validation rules) distinguishing field- vs. record-level access. Optimize Large Data Volumes with Query Plan, indexes, skinny tables, and big objects, showing measurable SOQL performance improvements.

Détails du module
Architect production-grade Salesforce integrations by mastering sync (REST/SOAP, authentication, Named Credentials, External Services, idempotency, retries) and async/event-driven patterns (Platform Events, CDC, durable subscribers, delivery guarantees, DLQs). Apply sync vs. async decision matrices based on timing, volume, coupling, error handling, and use cases. Execute large-scale data migration with Bulk API 2.0, leveraging CSV compression, upserts, parent/child sequencing, reference data mapping, job monitoring, partial failure handling, and Async SOQL for massive datasets.

When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I purchase the Certificate?
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
