Deep Dive Technical Sessions at Dreamforce 2018

There’s so much great content that comes from Dreamforce each year but some of my favourite content are the sessions that really dive into the technical details of how customers built world class highly available, scalable solutions on the Salesforce platform. It’s often valuable to learn from the journeys they’ve been on as you build your own applications on the Salesforce Platform

Here are the slides and the recordings — let me know your favourite in the comments below.

[Update: Below there is also a listing of Self Service / Portal / Community Sessions]
