Certified Data Architect Exam - Question 11

Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) runs its entire business out of an enterprise data warehouse (EDW). NTO’s sales team is starting to use Salesforce after a recent implementation, but currently lacks the data required to advance leads and opportunities to the next stage.

NTO’s management has researched Salesforce Connect and would like to use it to virtualize and report on data from the EOW within Salesforce. NTO will be running thousands of reports per day across 10 to 15 external objects.

What should a data architect consider before implementing Salesforce Connect for reporting?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

When implementing Salesforce Connect for reporting, it's crucial to consider OData callout limits per day. As NTO will be running thousands of reports per day across 10 to 15 external objects, the volume of data access will be significant. Salesforce Connect accesses external data in real-time via web service callouts to external data sources. Therefore, the OData callout limits are a critical factor to ensure that the system can handle the required number of data retrievals without hitting limits that could disrupt operations.

D. Salesforce Connect accesses the external data in real time via Web service callouts to external data sources.
