Marketing Cloud provides both REST and SOAP APIs for integrating with other systems, including Service Cloud. Both APIs can be used to perform various operations such as creating, updating, or deleting data objects, triggering messages, retrieving tracking data, and more. The REST API uses JSON request and response bodies, while the SOAP API uses XML request and response bodies. The choice of API depends on the use case, preference, and compatibility of the systems involved. References:

• Option A is correct because Customer 360 Data Manager can be used to ensure that there is only a single contact for a particular person across all the subsidiaries of a company.

It can match and merge duplicate contacts based on various criteria and create a single source of truth for customer data.
• Option C is correct because Duplicate Matching Rules can be used to ensure that there is only a single contact for a particular person across all the subsidiaries of a company. Duplicate Matching Rules are rules that define how Salesforce identifies duplicate records based on standard or custom fields. They can prevent users from creating or updating duplicate contacts based on various criteria and actions.
• Option B is incorrect because Third-party application or AppExchange tool is not an option that the Solution Architect can use to ensure that there is only a single contact for a particular person across all the subsidiaries of a company. Third-party application or AppExchange tool is not a specific or native solution for this problem, but rather a general or external solution that may or may not work depending on the features and compatibility of the application or tool.
• Option D is incorrect because Lightning Data Services is not an option that the Solution Architect can use to ensure that there is only a single contact for a particular person across all the subsidiaries of a company.

It does not have any functionality to prevent or resolve duplicate contacts.
