A Heroku application uses Heroku Connect to integrate with data from a Salesforce org. Since then, several fields from the Salesforce objects that were mapped using Connect have been removed. As a result, the development team will reload the mapping using Heroku Connect.
What is an implication of reloading the mapping?

  1. The mapped tables in Heroku Postgres will continue to store the previously synchronized data, and synchronization will restart normally.
  2. The mapped tables in Heroku Postgres will be truncated as part of the reload action. The data in removed fields will be lost, and synchronization will pause until manually restarted.
  3. The mapped tables in Heroku Postgres will continue to store the previously synchronized data, but synchronization will pause until manually restarted.
  4. The mapped tables in Heroku Postgres will be truncated as part of the reload action. The data in removed fields will be lost, and synchronization will restart normally.

Universal Containers has recently experienced a higher volume of traffic on their mobile app hosted on Heroku. When Universal Containers was running 4 standard-2x dynos with 1 GB RAM each, they encountered multiple H12 ("request timeout") errors. The app never consumed more than 800 MB of RAM. They then switched to performance-m dynos, with 2.5 GB RAM, and set autoscaling to a maximum of 2 dynos. However, they still encountered H12 ("request timeout") errors.
What remediation should an Architect recommend to alleviate this problem?

  1. Move long-running tasks to worker dynos.
  2. Add a logging add-on from the Elements marketplace.
  3. Upgrade to performance-L dynos with 14 GB RAM.
  4. Replace autoscaling with a manual scaling option of 2.

Answer(s): A



A customer wants to sync data between their Salesforce org and Heroku Postgres.
Which two limitations should an Architect remember when recommending Heroku Connect? (Choose two.)

  1. Heroku Connect can only access fields and objects that its associated Salesforce integration user can access.
  2. Heroku Connect does not support all Salesforce objects and fields.
  3. Heroku Connect does not provide an API.
  4. Heroku Connect cannot sync custom objects.

Answer(s): A,C



A healthcare client is creating a web portal for their customers on Heroku, which is sourced from a Salesforce instance. Some of the Salesforce data they wish to display falls under HIPAA compliance, and their auditors have determined this data must be stored encrypted-at-rest. To satisfy this requirement, they have enabled Platform Encryption on Salesforce.
They are investigating Heroku Shield Private Spaces, Shield Dynos, Shield Postgres, and Shield Heroku Connect.
How will Shield Heroku Connect interact with the encrypted fields in Salesforce?

  1. Shield Heroku Connect will be able to access only cypher text in the fields from Salesforce. They will need to import the encryption key from Salesforce to decrypt to store in Shield Postgres.
  2. Shield Heroku Connect will be able to synchronize data from fields in Salesforce without additional customization, but any writes will need to be encrypted using the Salesforce encryption key first before being written.
  3. Shield Heroku Connect requires customization on the Salesforce side to decrypt the data before transmitting to Heroku.
  4. Shield Heroku Connect will be able to synchronize data bidirectionally without additional customization.

Answer(s): B
