🍪 Cookies & The Cloud: The 2026 Architect Kickoff Challenge

Feb 24, 11:00 PM – Feb 25, 1:00 AM (UTC)

Salesforce Architect Group, Orlando, United States

Kick off 2026 with a hands-on architecture challenge. In this interactive session, we’ll solve the digital transformation of a fast-growing national organization operating across B2B, B2C, and member networks. You’ll work in breakout teams to design system landscapes, data models, and business cases, and then defend your solution to a live C-Suite panel.

About this event

We’re starting the year the way architects should: solving something messy, multi-layered, and strategic.  This session is ideal for Salesforce admins, devs, architects, and advanced practitioners who want to deepen their design skills in a real-world, impact-driven scenario.

Scenario Details:  

This month’s community workshop brings you 🍪 SpakyTrail Society - A fast-growing national youth nonprofit must modernize its fragmented B2B, B2C, and member operations — but can only fund one transformation pillar first.

Can you design a Salesforce cross-cloud solution that:

  • 🍪 Tame the seasonal chaos – Design a system landscape that survives a 3-month sales spike.

  • 👩‍👧 Untangle the member web – Unify youth members, parents, chapters, incentives, and commissions.

  • 📦 Fix the inventory madness – Model real-time booth stock, 3PL fulfillment, and corporate bulk orders.

  • 🤝 Close the 50,000-box deal – Architect enterprise gifting with contracts, pricing, and phased delivery.

  • 💰 Win the boardroom – Prove with KPIs why your pillar gets funded first.
