Question 11

Northern Trail Outfitters needs to use Shield Platform Encryption to encrypt social security numbers in order to meet a business requirement. Which action should an integration architect take prior to the implementation of Shield Platform Encryption?

C.Review Shield Platform Encryption configurations.

Question 12

Universal Containers (UC) is a leading provider of managementtraining globally, UC requested students course registration data generated from the Salesforce student community to be synced with the learning management system (LMS). Any update to the course registration data needs to be reflected in the LMS.
Which integration mechanism should be used to meet the requirement?

A.Change Data Capture (CDC)
B.Platform Event
C.Streaming API
D.Outbound Message

Question 13

A business requires automating the check and updating of the phone number type classification (mobile vs.
landline) for all incoming calls delivered to its phone sales agents. The following conditions exist:
* At peak, the call center can receive up to 100,000 calls per day.
* The phone number type classification is a service provided by an external service API.
* Business is flexible with timing and frequency to check and update the records (throughout the night or every 6-12 hours is sufficient).
A Remote-Call-In pattern and/or Batch Synchronization (Replication via ETL: System -> Salesforce) are determined to work with a middleware hosted on customer premise. In order to implement these patterns and mechanisms, which component should an integration architect recommend?

A.ConnectedApp configured in Salesforce to authenticate the middleware
B.An API Gateway that authenticates requests from Salesforce into the middleware (ETL/ESB)
C.Remote Site Settings configured in Salesforce to authenticate the middleware

Correct Answer: A

In this scenario, the architecture involves a Remote-Call-In pattern or Batch Synchronization, where an external system (the middleware or ETL tool) initiates communication with Salesforce to update records. For any external system to securely access Salesforce APIs and perform these updates, it must be authenticated and authorized.
The Connected App is the foundational framework that allows an external application to integrate with Salesforce using APIs and standard protocols, such as OAuth 2.0 and SAML. By configuring a Connected App, the architect can define which permissions (Scopes) the middleware has, such as the ability to access data via the REST or Bulk API. This is the correct choice because the middleware needs to "log in" to Salesforce to push the phone classification data back into the Account or Contact records.
Option B, an API Gateway, is typically used to manage and secure requests going out of an organization to external services, or to provide a facade for on-premise APIs; it does not handle the inbound authentication into Salesforce itself. Option C, Remote Site Settings, is a configuration used solely to permit Salesforce to make outbound calls to a specific external URL (for example, if Salesforce were calling the phone classification service directly via Apex).
Given that the business is flexible with timing (allowing for nightly or 12-hour syncs) and handles 100,000 calls, a Batch Synchronization pattern via an ETL tool is highly efficient. The ETL tool will authenticate against the Connected App using a secure OAuth flow (such as the JWT Bearer Flow for server-to-server integration), retrieve the new phone numbers, call the external classification API, and then bulk-update the Salesforce records. This setup ensures a secure, scalable, and manageable integration that respects Salesforce's security architecture while meeting the high-volume data requirements of the call center.

Question 14

An enterprise customer is planning to implement Salesforce to support case management.

Below is their current system landscape diagram. Considering Salesforce capabilities, what should the integration architect evaluate when integrating Salesforce with the current system landscape?

A.Integrate Salesforce with Data Warehouse, Order Management and Email Management System.
B.Integrate Salesforce with Order Management System, Data Warehouse and Case Management System.
C.Integrate Salesforce with Email Management System, Order Management System and Case Management System.

Correct Answer: A

An Integration Architect's primary responsibility when evaluating a landscape for a new Salesforce implementation is to identify the system of record for each business process and determine which legacy systems will be replaced by Salesforce. In this scenario, the customer is implementing Salesforce specifically to support case management.
According to the provided landscape diagram, the Case Management System currently exists as a standalone entity. Since Salesforce Service Cloud provides native, best-in-class case management capabilities, this legacy system is the primary candidate for retirement. Retiring the legacy Case Management system avoids data fragmentation and ensures that Salesforce serves as the single source of truth for support interactions.
However, for Salesforce to function effectively as a new case management hub, it must integrate with the remaining surrounding systems:
* Email Management System: This system likely handles inbound customer communications. An architect must evaluate integrating this with Salesforce (via Email-to-Case or a specialized connector) so that incoming emails automatically generate or update cases.
* Order Management System (OMS): Support agents often need to view order history or status to resolve customer inquiries. Integrating Salesforce with the OMS allows for a 360-degree view, enabling agents to see relevant order data directly within the Salesforce case console.
* Data Warehouse: For long-term reporting, trend analysis, and a unified customer profile, case data from Salesforce needs to be pushed to the Data Warehouse. This ensures that the Analytics and Business Intelligence Tool downstream can report on support metrics alongside other enterprise data.
Therefore, the architect should evaluate integrations with the Data Warehouse, Order Management, and Email Management System. Option B and C are incorrect because they suggest integrating with the "Case Management System," which is the very system being superseded by Salesforce's native capabilities. By focusing on the integration of these three supporting systems, the architect ensures a seamless transition where Salesforce is fully enriched with the necessary external data to drive support excellence.

Question 15

A company accepts payment requests 24x7. Once they accept a payment request, their service level agreement (SLA) requires them to make sure each payment request is processed by their Payment System. They track payment requests using a globally unique identifier created at the Data Entry Point. Their simplified flow is as shown in the diagram.
They encounter intermittent update errors when two or more processes try to update the same Payment Request record at the same time.
Which two recommendations should an integration architect make to improve their SLA and update conflict handling?
Choose 2 answers

A.Middleware should coordinate request delivery and payment processing.
B.Data Entry Point and Middleware should automatically retry requests.
C.Payment System should process a payment request only once.
D.Payment System and Middleware should automatically retry requests.
