Outbound Messaging and Platform Events are both suitable solutions for capturing and sending business events from Salesforce to an external system in real time. Outbound Messaging allows you to specify workflow rules that send SOAP messages with field values to designated endpoints1. Platform Events are secure and scalable messages that contain data and can be published and subscribed to using various APIs2. A trigger or a custom Apex controller can be used to publish platform events from Salesforce34. A callout is not a suitable solution because it is a synchronous request that may fail or timeout, and it also consumes API limits. A contract-first Outbound Messaging interface is not a valid option because Outbound Messaging uses a predefined WSDL that cannot be customized

• Option C is correct because Salesforce should be the system of record for their customers and prospects, as it is the CRM solution that the sales and service associates use to view and log their interactions with them. Salesforce can also integrate with the Marketing and ERP solutions to display relevant information from those systems, such as campaign history, invoices, and orders12
• Option A is incorrect because ERP is not a suitable system of record for customers and prospects, as it is mainly focused on invoicing and order fulfillment. ERP may not have all the data that the sales and service associates need to interact with them, such as contact details, preferences, activities, and opportunities. ERP may also have different data models and definitions than Salesforce and Marketing, which can cause data quality and consistency issues3
• Option B is incorrect because Marketing is not a suitable system of record for customers and prospects, as it is mainly focused on email campaigns. Marketing may not have all the data that the sales and service associates need to interact with them, such as account information, service cases, contracts, and quotes. Marketing may also have different data models and definitions than Salesforce and ERP, which can cause data quality and consistency issues.
• Option D is incorrect because creating a new custom database for customers and prospects is not a feasible or efficient solution, as it would require additional development, maintenance, and integration costs. It would also create another layer of complexity and potential data duplication in the system landscape. Salesforce already provides a robust and flexible platform for managing customer and prospect data, which can be easily customized and integrated with other systems.

Using Salesforce custom object, custom REST API and ETL is a better solution than using Salesforce standard object, REST API and ETL. A custom object can store the order information and provide more flexibility and control over the data model, validation rules, triggers, etc. A custom REST API can be used to create orders in real time from Salesforce, using the ESB as a proxy to communicate with the legacy system. An ETL tool can be used to sync the order history and status from the legacy system to Salesforce, using the last modified date as a filter. This way, sales reps can see the order history and the most up-to-date information on current order status, and managers can run reports on order volumes and fulfillment timelines. A standard object, such as Order, may not meet all the business requirements and may require more customization than a custom object. A standard REST API may not provide enough security and error handling for creating orders in real time. Reference: Salesforce Integration Architecture Designer Resource Guide, page 18
