Integration with Salesforce
I have an external website storing some data and I need to move data in Salesforce. Its a one way sync i.e from external website to salesforce.
People in our organization completes certifications and certification details are stored in external website. Our users would like to see that data on contacts page.
What is the best design approach?
Should i show the data on run time when they access contact page
or should we do sync and store the data in Salesforce? Management would like to create reports on this set of data like how many people completed their certification...
Kindly provide guidance

If you don't have to report on the data inside of Salesforce then you can just write a Visualforce page that queries your external site, pulls down the data and displays it on your contact page.
Another option would be Lightning Connect [2], but it too is expensive and does not currently support reporting.
