Salesforce trigger handlers – orchestrating efficacy
In the Salesforce architecture, while triggers stand as the vanguard of data-driven automation, trigger handlers orchestrate this automation. Diving deeper, a clearer picture of their significance in a streamlined Salesforce implementation arises:

Instead of placing all logic directly within the trigger, the trigger calls methods within these classes to perform the desired actions. By externalizing the logic into a handler, the code becomes more organized, modular, and maintainable. Each function or operation resides in its compartment, and the trigger itself remains lean, serving primarily as a dispatcher to these compartments.
- The rationale for using trigger handlers: Adopting trigger handlers underscores best practices for several compelling...
