Rangan Goldsmith - Salesforce Technical Architect

Rangan is a Salesforce Technical Architect with 15 + years of Salesforce experience. With clients ranging from Media and Publishing, Manufacturing, Healthcare, Health sciences and NGO domains, Rangan's career has spanned across CMS systems, AWS, MS dynamics, operational monitoring systems and of course, Salesforce.

Dealing with high data volumes with real world examples

Rangan's session will be all about data. For a majority percentage of projects, data is always the poorer cousin as opposed to functionality. Throughout the session, Rangan will focus on data accuracy, consistency, governance far too little, and too late. The classic methodology of 'loading everything in' doesn't work any more. You will learn how to develop scalable, sustainable systems and a framework for good data quality health. Rangan's session will take you on a journey of where data originates on an enterprise system, how to make sure it's loaded correctly, maintaining its quality over time TO handling large volumes of it efficiently and also the tools that Salesforce Architects have at their disposal. Every organisation is precious about their data, so driving the overall governance and stewardship is extremely crucial. We will be discussing the average project challenges with it.

In person event

The Cotswolds Salesforce Community Group will be taking place in person at GLfifty Offices in the heart of Cheltenham Town Centre. You don't need to bring anything with you, but if you'd like to take part in the quiz make sure you've got a mobile device to hand!
