The best design pattern to satisfy the requirement of accessing order data from an on-premise database with REST API access without consuming SF storage limits is to use SF Connect to virtualize the data in SF and avoid storage limits. SF Connect is an integration tool that allows users to access and integrate data from external sources using external objects. External objects are similar to custom objects, except that the data resides in another system and is accessed in real time via web service callouts. SF Connect supports various adapters to connect to different types of external data sources, such as OData, cross-org, or Apex custom adapter11. Migrate and persist the data in SF to take advantage of native functionality is not a good option because it would consume SF storage limits and require data synchronization between systems. Develop a bidirectional integration between the on-premise system and Salesforce is not a good option because it would be complex and costly to implement and maintain, and it would also consume SF storage limits. Build a UI for the on-premise system and iframe it in Salesforce is not a good option because it would not provide a seamless user experience and it would not allow users to search, report, or perform actions on the external data.

The recommended data model for consumer account data to be stored in Salesforce is to use the Account object with Person Accounts and a new B2C page layout. Person Accounts are a special type of accounts that allow you to store information about individual consumers who are not associated with a business account2. Person Accounts have the following advantages3:

They allow you to use the same standard objects and features that you use for business accounts, such as contacts, opportunities, cases, etc.

They enable you to create different page layouts and record types for B2C and B2B customers, which allows you to customize the user interface and business logic for each segment.

They support large data volumes and can scale up to 50 million records or more, which meets the expected growth of consumers over the next five years.

Shield platform encryption is the recommended solution for encrypting sensitive patient records stored in files, as it provides encryption at rest for files and attachments, as well as standard and custom fields. Classic encryption only supports text fields with a maximum length of 175 characters, and does not encrypt files. Third-party App Exchange apps may not provide the same level of security and compliance as shield platform encryption. Storing files outside of salesforce may introduce additional complexity and latency
