What is Salesforce Platform?

Salesforce Platform is a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) that enables developers to create and deploy cloud apps. The product offers a responsive layout to users and provides services and tools to automate processes and integrate with third-party programs.

With Heroku and Salesforce, you can manage apps coded in open languages such as PHP, Java, and Ruby. Heroku Enterprise offers control features, enterprise-level support, and collaboration functionality.

Salesforce Lightning Design System presents code and guides to help developers build apps. You can create apps by utilizing reusable building blocks such as number-entry forms, buttons, calendars, and maps. In addition, you can develop enterprise apps by dragging and dropping elements into the Lightning App Builder. Another advantage is you can use a schema builder to modify data-object relationships.

You can utilize Lightning Connect to link your apps with outside data sources. If you run into any issues, you can contact the vendor’s phone support team as well as get help from the online forum and video tutorials.
