Salesforce Certified Data Architect — Question 78

Universal Containers (UC) has built a B2C ecommerce site on Heroku that shares customer and order data with a Heroku Postgres database. UC is currently utilizing Postgres as the Single Source of Truth for both customers and orders. UC has asked a data architect to replicate this data into Salesforce so that Salesforce can now act as the System of Record.
What are the three considerations that a data architect should weigh before implementing this requirement? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Ensure there is a tight relationship between order data and an enterprise resource planning (ERP) application.
• B. Determine if the data is a driver of key processes implemented within Salesforce.
• C. Consider whether the data is required for sales reports, dashboards, and KPIs.
• D. Ensure the data is CRM-centric and able to populate standard or custom objects.
• E. A selection of the tool required to replicate the data.

Correct answer: B, C, D

Explanation

The correct answers B, C, and D are essential considerations because they directly relate to how the data will be utilized within Salesforce and its importance for business processes and reporting. Options A and E, while relevant, do not specifically address the integration of data into Salesforce as a System of Record and are therefore less critical in this context.
