The Core Architecture of Salesforce
The architecture of Salesforce can be divided into 3 layers for better understanding. The details are described below-
1. Multi-Tenant
Multi-tenancy is a great influencer. Each customer is called a tenant. Tenants are allowed to customize some parts of the application, but they are not allowed to customize the application’s code. In this architecture, multiple instances of the application operate in a shared environment. This architecture is capable of working because each tenant is integrated physically, but separated logically. In this way, a software application in a multi-tenant architecture can share a dedicated instance of configurations, data, user management, and other functionalities.
2. Metadata
In this form of architecture, multitenancy is viable only in cases when it can support applications that are dependable, adaptable, upgradeable, secure, and quick. A multitenant application is dynamic in nature, to satisfy the desires of the individual inhabitants and their customers. A multitenant architecture plans to develop a runtime motor that produces application parts from metadata -information about the application itself. There is an unmistakable division between the metadata that portrays the base usefulness of an application and the metadata that connects to each inhabitant’s information and customizations.Â
3. API
APIs connect diverse bits of programming to interface with each other and trade data. APIs are comparable. Without knowing the precise elements, users can interface the applications with different applications or programming structures. The basic innovation deals with the information of how data transfers all through the application.
