Data-Architect Exam Dumps : Salesforce Certified Platform Data Architect (Plat-Arch-201)

The three considerations needed prior to a SF Connect implementation are to develop an object relationship strategy, identify the external tables to sync into external objects, and assess whether the external data source is reachable via an ODATA endpoint. SF Connect is a feature that allows integrating external data sources with Salesforce using external objects. External objects are similar to custom objects, but they store metadata only and not data. They enable on-demand access to external data via standard Salesforce APIs and user interfaces. To implement SF Connect, a data architect needs to consider how the external objects will relate to other objects in Salesforce, which external tables will be exposed as external objects, and whether the external data source supports ODATA protocol for data access.

Analytics/BI Owners and Data Domain Stewards are appropriate roles as members of a team that makes decisions on enterprise-wide data governance. Analytics/BI Owners are responsible for defining the business requirements and metrics for data analysis and reporting, and Data Domain Stewards are responsible for defining and enforcing the data quality standards and rules for specific data domains. Salesforce Administrators and Operational Data Users are not suitable roles for this team, as they are more focused on the operational aspects of data management, such as configuration, maintenance, and usage.

According to the Salesforce documentation, a hub-and-spoke model is an integration architecture pattern that allows connecting multiple Salesforce orgs using a central org (hub) and one or more secondary orgs (spokes). The hub org acts as the master data source and orchestrates the data flow between the spoke orgs. The spoke orgs act as the consumers or producers of the data and communicate with the hub org.

To orchestrate data between the hub org and spoke orgs, a data architect should use:

A middleware solution that extracts and distributes data across both the hub and spokes (option A). This means using an external service or tool that can connect to multiple Salesforce orgs using APIs or connectors, and perform data extraction, transformation, and distribution operations between the hub and spoke orgs. This can provide a scalable, flexible, and reliable way to orchestrate data across multiple orgs.

Developing custom APIs to poll the hub org for change data and push into the spoke orgs (option B) is not a good solution, as it can be complex, costly, and difficult to maintain. It may also not be able to handle large volumes of data or complex transformations efficiently. Developing custom APIs to poll the spoke orgs for change data and push into the hub org (option C) is also not a good solution, as it can have the same drawbacks as option B. It may also not be able to handle conflicts or errors effectively. Using a backup and archive solution that extracts and restores data across orgs (option D) is also not a good solution, as it can incur additional costs and dependencies. It may also not be able to handle real-time or near-real-time data orchestration requirements.
