Question 1 of 175
A company is designing a Lightning Web Component (LWC) to display transactions aggregated from different sources. Their current system landscape is as follows:
1. Transactions are created at any time through their various on-premise and cloud-based systems.
2. All necessary transactions are replicated to a custom Transaction object in Salesforce. It is updated periodically so it only has a subset of the necessary transactions between updates.
3. Middleware supports publish-subscribe interactions and provides RESTful Enterprise APIs that can retrieve transactions from on-premise and cloud-based systems.
The company wants to address a usability concern regarding incomplete data displayed on the LWC component.
What should the integration architect specify so the LWC will be able to display all the required transactions?
    Correct Answer: C

    To ensure the LWC displays all required transactions, the optimal approach is to use the Continuation class. This method allows asynchronous callouts to long-running services such as Enterprise APIs without blocking the execution of Apex code, thus improving performance and handling complex integration scenarios. It processes the response in a callback method, ensuring that the LWC displays up-to-date and comprehensive data. This approach avoids the pitfalls of making direct API calls from the LWC's JavaScript code, which is not considered a best practice due to security and efficiency concerns.

Question 2 of 175
A subscription-based media company’s system landscape forces many subscribers to maintain multiple accounts and to login more than once. An Identity and Access Management (IAM) system, which supports SAML and OpenId, was recently implemented to improve the subscriber experience through self-registration and single sign-on (SSO).
The IAM system must integrate with Salesforce to give new self-service customers instant access to Salesforce Community Cloud.
Which two requirements should the Salesforce Community Cloud support for self-registration and SSO? (Choose two.)
    Correct Answer: A, C

    Salesforce Community Cloud must support both SAML SSO and Just-in-Time (JIT) provisioning to enable instant access for users the first time they log in, integrating with a SAML-based IAM system. Additionally, OpenId Connect Authentication Provider should be supported to accommodate users utilizing OpenId. Combining SAML SSO with JIT provisioning and OpenId Connect Authentication ensures seamless user experience with self-registration and single sign-on.

Question 3 of 175
A customer is evaluating the Platform Events solution and would like help in comparing/contrasting it with Outbound Messaging for real-time/near-real time needs. They expect 3,000 customers to view messages in Salesforce.
Which three considerations should be evaluated and highlighted when deciding between the solutions? (Choose three.)
    Correct Answer: A, B, E

    When deciding between Platform Events and Outbound Messaging for real-time or near-real-time needs, three key considerations should be evaluated. First, the number of concurrent subscribers to Platform Events is capped at 2,000, and Outbound Messaging configurations can send only up to 100 notifications in a single message to a SOAP endpoint. Second, both solutions offer declarative means for asynchronous near-real-time needs but are not best suited for real-time integrations. Finally, while both solutions are highly scalable, only Platform Events come with event delivery and event publishing limits that must be considered.

Question 4 of 175
Universal Containers (UC) owns a variety of cloud-based applications, including Salesforce, alongside several on-premise applications. The on-premise applications are protected behind a corporate network with limited outside access to external systems.
UC would like to expose data from the on-premise applications to Salesforce for a more unified user experience. The data should be accessible from Salesforce in real time.
Which two actions should be recommended to fulfill this system requirement? (Choose two.)
    Correct Answer: C, D

    To expose data from on-premise applications to Salesforce in real time, two key actions are recommended. First, developing custom APIs on the company's network that are invokable by Salesforce will provide direct, real-time access to the necessary data. This approach allows Salesforce to make API calls to the on-premise systems when needed. Second, deploying MuleSoft to the on-premise network and designing external facing APIs to expose the data leverages MuleSoft's integration capabilities and security measures. MuleSoft can securely expose and manage the real-time data integrations between the two environments.

Question 5 of 175
A global financial company sells financial products and services that include the following:
1. Bank accounts
2. Loans
3. Insurance
The company has a state-of-the-art core banking system that is the master system to store financial transactions, financial products and customer information. The core banking system currently processes 10 million financial transactions per day. The CTO for the company is considering building a community portal so that customers can review their bank account details, update their Information and review their account financial transactions.
What should an integration architect recommend as a solution to enable customer community users to view their financial transactions?
    Correct Answer: A

    The company needs a way for customers to securely view their financial transactions without overwhelming Salesforce's data limits. Salesforce External Service can integrate directly with the core banking system, allowing for dynamic data display in real-time. This approach avoids the limitations of Salesforce Connect, which may have restrictions with the high volume of transactions. Additionally, this method maintains data security and access controls, which are critical for sensitive financial information.
