About this listen
This episode introduces asynchronous processing in Salesforce, contrasting it with synchronous operations by highlighting its ability to execute tasks "in the background" without user waiting. It emphasizes key benefits like user efficiency, allowing immediate continuation of work, and scalability, which enables the platform to manage and process more jobs concurrently. A significant advantage detailed is the provision of higher governor and execution limits for asynchronous processes, effectively doubling capacities for operations like SOQL queries. This episode further outlines different types of asynchronous Apex - Future Methods, Batch Apex, Queueable Apex, and Scheduled Apex - explaining their unique applications, and concludes by describing the queue-based framework that manages and ensures the fair, fault-tolerant processing of these requests in a multi-tenant environment.
