Overview of this book

Salesforce Anti-Patterns teaches you to spot errors in Salesforce patterns that may seem like a good idea at first but end up costing you dearly. This book will enable Salesforce developers and architects to understand how ingenious Salesforce architectures can be created by studying anti-patterns and solutions to problems that can later lead to serious implementation issues. While there are several books on the market that start with the question, “How do I create great Salesforce architecture?” and proceed to a solution from there, this book instead starts by asking, “What tends to go wrong with Salesforce architectures?” and proceeds to a solution from there. In this book, you’ll find out how to identify and mitigate anti-patterns in the technical domains of system architecture, data architecture, and security architecture, along with anti-patterns in the functional domain of solution architecture as well as for integration architecture. You’ll also learn about common anti-patterns affecting your Salesforce development process and governance and, finally, how to spot common problems in how architects communicate their solutions. By the end of this Salesforce book, you’ll have gained the confidence to architect and communicate solutions on the Salesforce platform while dodging common mistakes.

Summary

Phew, that was a lot of background. Thank you for sticking with it. You are now in a position to move forward with the book having understood the key facts about what anti-patterns are and how you can learn from them.

A few things to remember as you go into the next chapters are as follows:

  • It is important not to simply think about anti-patterns as bad practice. Bad practice is obvious, but anti-patterns are nefarious. They masquerade as good solutions and can be persuasive in certain situations, even to experienced professionals. That’s also what makes them so fun to study.
  • While we will be presenting a lot of individual anti-patterns in this book, it is important to draw out the parallels and meta-patterns that can be gleaned by comparing and contrasting them. We will do some of that work for you in the analysis sections that can be found throughout the book. You should also try to do this activity for yourself.
  • While we are focusing on a Salesforce context, many of the patterns you will learn about are applicable to other platforms as well. Some are even classics that will be known by a great number of grizzled architects.

With that out of the way, we are now ready to look in detail at our first architecture domain: systems architecture.
