QuestionQ22

VerifiedRisk Identification and Mitigation

Universal Containers (UC) is a large enterprise with a complex system landscape. UC is currently rolling out new infrastructure and strategies for Salesforce DevOps. Key capabilities UC wants to support include rolling back metadata after a deployment, plus backing up and restoring data to recover from deployment issues, system bugs, or outages in downstream systems.

Industry regulations require UC to provide recovery and rollback strategies. The regulator has found that UC does not currently provide these strategies, and UC must do so as soon as possible to remain compliant.

What should an architect recommend?

Explanation

Third-party and AppExchange backup-and-recovery products can provide automated backups of Salesforce data and metadata, along with restoration capabilities. Evaluating these established products is the fastest practical way to meet recovery, rollback, and compliance requirements without the time, risk, and maintenance burden of building a custom solution.
