About the Salesforce Certified Technical Architect CredentialThe Salesforce Certified Technical Architect (CTA) program is intended for seasoned Salesforce Architects who wish to showcase their expertise in evaluating customer architecture, designing secure and high-performing technical solutions on the Lightning Platform, and effectively communicating design tradeoffs to business stakeholders. This credential also emphasizes delivering a structured framework to ensure quality and success.Audience Description: Salesforce Certified Technical ArchitectA Salesforce Certified Technical Architect can assess architectural environments and requirements to design secure, high-performance solutions on the Lightning Platform. These candidates are skilled in communicating technical solutions and tradeoffs to business stakeholders and providing a delivery framework for comprehensive solutions.Candidates are expected to possess the following qualifications:Experience:Over five years of implementation experience, including full lifecycle software development and development experience.At least three years in an architect role.Two or more years of experience on the Lightning Platform, with at least one year in a lead architect role, implementing Salesforce applications and technologies.Deployment Expertise:Held a technical architect role in multiple complex deployments or equivalent exposure through similar projects.Guided development teams on appropriate platform technology use.Identified and mitigated technical risks across architectures.Knowledge Areas:Understanding of globalization considerations and object-oriented design patterns.Familiarity with platform-specific design patterns, limitations, and best practices for developing on the Lightning Platform.Awareness of data migration considerations, design trade-offs, and ETL tools.Understanding of large data volume challenges and mitigation strategies.Knowledge of security complexities, mechanisms, and capabilities on the Lightning Platform.Experience with common integration patterns, multiple development languages (.NET, Java, Ruby), and mobile solutions.Expertise in lifecycle methodologies for projects and development.About the ExamThe Salesforce Certified Technical Architect Review Board Exam evaluates candidates' abilities through a structured scenario-based assessment.Exam Prerequisites:Successful completion of the Architect Review Board Evaluation with a passing grade.Exam Format:Candidates review and solve a hypothetical scenario and present their solution to a panel of CTA judges.A question-and-answer session with the judges follows the presentation.Time Allotment:Review and Solution Preparation: 3 hoursPresentation: 45 minutesQuestion and Answer Session: 40 minutesMaterials Provided:An exam scenario in Google Doc format.A Google Slide deck.A Google Sheet.A blank Lucidchart with access to the Salesforce Shape Library (templates are not permitted).An on-screen timer.Restrictions:No hard copy or online reference materials are permitted during the exam.Smart devices, including phones and watches, must be stored before the exam begins.Exam OutlineThe Salesforce Certified Technical Architect Review Board Exam measures a candidate's knowledge and skills related to the objectives listed below. A candidate should have hands-on experience as an Architect on the Lightning Platform and have demonstrated the application of each of the features/functions below.System ArchitectureGiven a scenario, determine the appropriate mix of systems, including both on and off-platform components, taking into consideration the Salesforce platform capabilities, constraints, and limits.Given a scenario, describe the design and platform considerations, trade-offs, and risks for reporting and analytics.Given a scenario, describe the architectural considerations when planning, defining, or working within a single or multi-org environment.Given a scenario, describe the design considerations, trade-offs, and risks for mobile solutions and recommend the appropriate mobile platform.Given a set of requirements, recommend the correct mix of required license types taking into account the capabilities, trade-offs, and constraints.Given a set of requirements, describe the capabilities, trade-offs, and constraints to determine the appropriate document management solution.SecurityGiven a set of requirements, architect a solution that utilizes the appropriate platform security mechanisms.Given a scenario, identify the security considerations and risks, and leverage the appropriate security capabilities to design a secure portal architecture including access by both internal and external users.Given a scenario, identify the declarative platform security features that can be used to meet record-level security requirements.Given a scenario, identify the programmatic platform security features that can be used to meet security requirements.Given a scenario, describe how to incorporate the platform security features into a solution to give users the appropriate object and field access permissions.Given a set of requirements, design and justify an end-to-end identity management solution.DataGiven a scenario, describe the platform architecture considerations, platform impact and optimization methods used when working with large data volumes.Given a scenario, describe data modeling concepts and implications of database design and modeling.Given a scenario, determine the data migration strategy, considerations, and appropriate tools to use.Solution ArchitectureGiven a set of business requirements, describe the appropriate combination of declarative and programmatic functionality within a solution.Given a scenario, describe the benefits, considerations, and trade-offs of incorporating external applications into an optimal solution architecture.IntegrationGiven a set of requirements, recommend the appropriate enterprise integration landscape and describe associated risks, trade-offs, and business and technical considerations within a customer environment.Given a scenario, describe the capabilities of the appropriate technology and justify their use as part of the overall integration architecture.Given a scenario, recommend and justify the appropriate integration strategy and the use of common integration patterns.Given a scenario, recommend and justify the appropriate platform-specific integration technology used to integrate with external systems and describe the capabilities, limitations and trade-offs.Development Lifecycle and Deployment PlanningGiven a scenario, identify the project risks and mitigation strategies.Given a customer project environment and development methodology, identify the technical considerations, risks, and impact on the technical work streams.Given a scenario, recommend an appropriate comprehensive test strategy and discuss how testing mitigates any project risks.Given a scenario, describe the considerations, stakeholders, and impact of decisions around a technical solution relative to customer project governance.Given a scenario, describe the platform tools, use cases, limitations, and best practices for environment management.Describe the common tools, benefits, and rationale for using source control and continuous integration for release management.CommunicationArticulate the benefits, limitations, considerations, and design choices for a solution architecture and handle objections related to the design. Demonstrate how visualization and documentation tools can be used to articulate the technical solution.Demonstrate the ability to handle unexpected roadblocks and determine the appropriate next steps.
