Topic #: 5

Customer is evaluating Platform Events solution and would like help in comparing/contrasting it with Outbound Message for a real-time / near-real time needs. They expect 3,000 consumers of messages from Salesforce.

Which three considerations should be evaluated and highlighted when deciding between the solutions?

Choose 3 answers

ABoth Platform Events and Outbound Message offer declarative means for asynchronous near-real time needs. They aren't best suited for real-
time integrations.

BIn both Platform Events and Outbound Messages, the event messages are retried by and delivered in sequence, and only once. Salesforce ensures there is no duplicate message delivery.

CMessage sequence is possible in Outbound Message but not guaranteed with Platform Events. Both offer very high reliability. Fault handling
and recovery are fully handled by Salesforce.

DNumber of concurrent subscribers to Platform Events is capped at 2,000. An Outbound Message configuration can pass only 100 notifications in a single messages to a SOAP end point.

EBoth Platform Events and Outbound Message are highly scalable. However, unlike Outbound Message, only Platform Events have Event Delivery and Event Publishing limits to be considered.

Salesforce's messaging solutions sound like they're trying to outdo each other in a relay race - 'I can deliver more, faster, and with fewer hiccups than you!' Let's see who crosses the finish line first.

So, it's a battle of the asynchronous messaging titans - Platform Events vs. Outbound Message. May the most scalable, reliable, and sequence-guaranteed solution win!

Both Platform Events and Outbound Message seem to offer asynchronous near-real time options, but real-time integrations may require something more robust.

I agree with Eleonora. Scalability is important, especially with 3,000 consumers of messages.

I think we should consider the scalability aspect when deciding between Platform Events and Outbound Message.
