Mulesoft Integration: a talk between SalesforceCat and SalesforceDog! Julio Fernández Julio Fernández

This is the story of how Max the Mule helped long time enemies #SalesforceCat and #SalesforceDog organise the best party ever.

SalesforceCat and SalesforceDog where trying to organise a party but SalesforceDog could not understand all the meoooooows from SalesforceCat, therefore the party planning was a disaster.

Fortunately Max the Mule stepped in with its amazing integration skills to help them understand each other and get the best party ever up and running.

Managing Data Integration is commonly one of the most important aspects of a Salesforce implementation. Companies need to have a good data migration strategy when they move from their legacy systems to Salesforce or simply when they want all their systems to seamlessly communicate.

You’ll learn how to use the out-of-the-box connectors provided by the Mulesoft Anypoint Platform to build scalable data integrations and flows with minimal code. Integrating with any application, data source and device, whether they are cloud-based or on-premise systems.

Salesforce CI/CD – a strategy for success Yassine Elqandili Yassine Elqandili

Somewhere on your journey using Salesforce (as an Admin or Developer), you’ve came across changesets & single org development. You’ve surely had to keep track all of your changes in a separate external location & had to make sure that you don’t override your colleague’s changes. Let alone having more than one team working on separate tracks on the same Org, who end up overriding each other at deployment time.

In this session, we’ll discover, together, how having the right CI/CD strategy will help overcome those challenges & beyond; how it helps satisfy all parties involved in a project: from Business to Development & change management & end users.
