Scaling solutions

Salesforce’s robust platform provides scalable solutions for configuration changes, enabling virtually limitless growth. However, when it comes to writing custom Apex code, the onus is on developers to ensure that the code can handle the expected level of growth without hitting the platform’s governor limits. These are built-in restrictions (for example, Governor Limits) that prevent undue resource consumption, and they present a unique challenge in the Salesforce ecosystem. Writing code that scales seamlessly requires a thoughtful approach that takes these limits into account. Typically, a project will document its anticipated growth and scaling needs, providing a clear benchmark for developers. This guidance allows them to architect solutions that not only meet current demands but also can gracefully handle projected increases in data volume and user interaction. By aligning Apex code with these growth expectations, developers can craft efficient,...
