•  Customer 1-view charter, Acme Inc. business requirements: –  Show SAP Sales Orders and details in Salesforce. –  Orders should reflect real-time status. –  Data should be accessible anywhere and from any device.

•  The Salesforce technical team lead thinks of a solution. Do I: –  Volume – Need to load thousands of SAP Sales Order records in Salesforce and

keep them in sync with SAP. –  Complexity – Need to build and manage complex integration, and need to

create custom apex code and config in Salesforce. –  Scalability – Need to think of industry standards so that this solution is

scalable for other use case.
