Integration Best Practice

Hi,

 

I am looking for articles or resource on SFDC integration best practice. I am currently working on project where our client would like to make web service API call to SFDC every 5 seconds for any add/updates. The 5 seconds interval time is very short. Also, SFDC enforces limit on number of API call you can make per day. 

 

Is there standard on best practice for SFDC web service calls that you can share ?

 

thanks in advance,

If you are looking for more real-time like integration to send data from salesforce.com to an external system, look into Outbound Messaging. You can setup an endpoint on your end and salesforce.com will post changes to it based on workflow rules. 

 

If you do want to write a poller to constantly get data from salesforce.com, read the data replication best practices section here.
