Interactive Demonstrations (Live Q1 2026)

Note

Detailed preview of items from the "Available at Launch" section above. The live site is currently under development.

Resilience Engineering

  • Toggle "Resilience Simulation" in the Glass Box footer to force GitHub/Jira integration failures
  • Watch the system serve cached data gracefully with circuit breaker status indicators (Open/Closed/Half-Open)
  • Validates enterprise high-availability patterns under controlled failure conditions

API-First Architecture

  • Use the built-in API Tester component to call native Salesforce REST endpoints
  • Compare live responses against the OpenAPI specification in real-time
  • Verify mandatory distributed tracing headers (X-Request-Id) and proper error response formats

Production Observability

  • Monitor real-time Salesforce governor limits (Heap, CPU, SOQL queries) in the Glass Box footer
  • Track AI provider health and automatic failover status across the triple-fallback stack
  • Demonstrates constraint-aware development practices and platform limit management

Mobile-First Performance

AWS Lambda Polyglot BFF (Door 2 Architecture)

  • 85% payload reduction vs. parallel REST calls through intelligent server-side orchestration

Diagram Description (for accessibility): The diagram shows a user connecting to an Experience Cloud LWR site, which routes data requests through either a native Salesforce GraphQL API (Door 1, live in Q1 2026) or an AWS Lambda Polyglot Backend For Frontend (Door 2, design complete for Q2 2026). The Apex Runtime handles integrations with Jira, GitHub, and Agentforce AI, all backed by custom Salesforce objects.

API & Integration Contracts (Contract-First Design)

Note

This project utilizes a Twin API Pattern (ADR-024). System and Process APIs are designated to strict OpenAPI 3.0 specifications to ensure technical parity between Salesforce and enterprise middleware.

Strategy: In the MVP, orchestration is handled by Salesforce Apex (Door 1). Phase 8 enables Door 2, delegating to AWS Lambda for 85%+ payload reduction.

Security: All APIs enforce a two-layer auth model (ADR-017) featuring explicit API Key headers and internal OAuth2 Client Credentials.
