Sales Force
Salesforce is a cloud-based Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform that enables businesses to manage their relationships and interactions with customers, prospects, and partners. Originally built to help sales teams manage leads and customers, Salesforce has evolved into a full-fledged platform offering solutions for sales, service, marketing, commerce, analytics, app development, AI, and more.
Founded in 1999 by Marc Benioff, Salesforce was a pioneer in offering software as a service (SaaS), helping move CRM from on-premises to the cloud.

Salesforce organizes its offerings into different “clouds”—each focused on a specific function or business area:

Salesforce Architecture
Salesforce is a multi-tenant, metadata-driven platform, meaning all customers share the same infrastructure and software codebase, but data and configurations are securely separated.
Key Components:
- Objects: Equivalent to database tables (e.g., Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities).
- Fields: Data attributes for each object.
- Apex: Salesforce's proprietary object-oriented programming language.
- Visualforce: Framework for building custom user interfaces.
- Lightning Components: UI framework for dynamic web apps.
- Flow/Process Builder: Low-code automation tools.
- APIs: REST, SOAP, and Bulk APIs for integration.
