Salesforce Plat-Arch-201 Exam Topics - You’ll Be Tested in Actual Exam
You will not pass this one by memorizing object limits or repeating design slogans. The exam keeps pressing on whether your data model choices will still work when the org is busy, integrated, and full of history. Most of the score lives in data modeling and database design, and that means you need to reason through relationships, cardinality, ownership, and sharing side effects, not just pick between lookup and master detail. Expect to weigh how reporting, automation, and security behave when you denormalize, add junction objects, or rely on external IDs, because one small modeling decision can create a long tail of query and maintenance pain. Data migration and data quality show up as the practical follow through, where you have to plan loads, handle duplicates, and keep referential integrity intact while users keep working. Integration and data management is where candidates get sloppy, since the questions often hide the real issue in sync patterns, id mapping, and error handling rather than in the connector itself. Then there is large data volume and performance, which is less about magic settings and more about how indexes, selectivity, and skew interact with your model and your sharing rules. The people who struggle usually answer from habit instead of tracing the data from creation to reporting to integration. Build the habit now of sketching the data lifecycle on paper before you commit to any model choice.
