Salesforce Reliability Patterns

Overview

Production-grade reliability patterns for Salesforce integrations: circuit breakers for API outages, idempotent operations using External IDs, graceful degradation with cached data, and dead letter queues for failed operations.

Prerequisites

• jsforce connection configured
• Understanding of Salesforce error codes (see salesforce-common-errors)
• Redis or database for state management (optional)
• opossum or similar circuit breaker library
