INTEGRATING SYSTEMS WITH UNIFIED INTERFACE - SALESFORCE MEETS SERVER SIDE JAVASCRIPT

Systems integration is always a hot topic. We will show what are the challenges when integrating a large-scale Salesforce deployment with a custom, user-facing Universal JavaScript application. During the meeting, we will show technical methods and solutions to authenticate, authorize and access data from unrelated systems.

The user licenses are the true cost of the Salesforce deployment. Managing the users is the first task of every Salesforce admin and (sometimes) the main issue for developers. We will show some problems and solutions in enterprise-scale user management. We will focus on user authentication, authorization, and granting data access. And, yes - you will become a Salesforce developer.

Fat server returns with universal JavaScript.

Maciej Sikora

Universal JavaScript is a new trend in software engineering, in general, it is the implementation of the concept - "write once run anywhere".

The most common usage of universal JavaScript concept can be found in web applications, where we can write one code and execute it on server side or client side.

In the presentation, we will try to check if it is really possible to create such an universal app, and if it means that the well-known concept of fat server and thin client is back.
