Description

Salesforce Certified Technical Architect (CTA) is the ultimate certification to validate your knowledge and skills when it comes to designing and building high-performance technical solutions on the Salesforce platform. The CTA certificate is granted after successfully passing the CTA review board exam, which tests your platform expertise and soft skills for communicating your solutions and vision. You’ll start with the core concepts that every architect should master, including data lifecycle, integration, and security, and build your aptitude for creating high-level technical solutions. Using real-world examples, you’ll explore essential topics such as selecting systems or components for your solutions, designing scalable and secure Salesforce architecture, and planning the development lifecycle and deployments. Finally, you'll work on two full mock scenarios that simulate the review board exam, helping you learn how to identify requirements, create a draft solution, and combine all the elements together to create an engaging story to present in front of the board or to a client in real life. By the end of this Salesforce book, you’ll have gained the knowledge and skills required to pass the review board exam and implement architectural best practices and strategies in your day-to-day work.

Who is this book for?

A comprehensive book covering all the fundamental topics in a logical and structured format. It also contains core concepts and skills that are not just important for the exam, but also essential to a Salesforce technical architect's day-to-day job.The technical topics are useful to identify the areas and gaps that require additional work for those planning for the exam. They also serve as an excellent reference for the more experienced Salesforce technical architects to validate their approach before attempting the exam.Tameem has masterfully captured the key aspects of becoming a Salesforce CTA journey in this book and it is a useful reference material for many aspiring CTAs.However, this book should be used as a reference guide to preparing for the exam as it takes experience, practical knowledge, effective communication skills and more than just reading a 600-page book to become a CTA.

If you have the objective of presenting before the CTA review board, this book is very much worth your time. It dives deep into the details regarding Salesforce Architecture, Designing a Solution, and preparing for review board scenarios. There are many helpful diagrams and images that aide to understand the inner workings of the Salesforce platform and how to explain the integrations and implementations. The Tips and Tricks section specifically lays out ways in which the CTA candidate can prepare for and deal with challenges along with way. I would recommend this book for those who are seriously preparing for their Salesforce CTA certification.

(I received a preview copy and know Tameem. I am also a CTA)Tameem has been there, seen it, done it, and literally has the CTA T-shirt. This book outlines the process incredibly well and gives insight to the best ways to approach the various categories of knowledge that need to be demonstrated. Full of tips and pointers, and references - once you have this book you have everything at your fingertips that you need to undertake the CTA journey.

For candidates preparing for the CTA review board, the chapters on presenting and defending solutions are something I have not seen described anywhere else.The technical deep-dive chapters will be an invaluable reference to technical consultants and senior developers seeking to improve their knowledge.For the growing numbers of experienced architects coming to Salesforce from other technology ecosystems, this book serves and an excellent guide.I have recommended this book to many of my colleagues and I refer to it myself regularly.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
