Only the following fields are automatically indexed in Salesforce:
* Primary keys (Id, Name and Owner fields).
* Foreign keys (lookup or master-detail relationship fields).
* Audit dates (such as SystemModStamp).
* Custom fields marked as an External ID or a unique field.

“Data skew†is a condition which you will encounter when working for a big client where there are over 10,000 records. When one single user owns that many records we call that condition ‘ownership data skew’.
When such users perform updates, performance issues will be encountered because of “data skewâ€. This happens when a single user/ members of a single role own most of the records for a particular object.

Force.com is the entire framework and codebase on which the whole Salesforce application exists. We can also say that Salesforce is built on Force.com, which is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) that allows us to simplify the design, development, and deployment of cloud-based applications and websites. Developers can work with Cloud Integrated Development Environment (Cloud IDE) and deploy the applications on the servers of Force.com.

Taking customisations one level further, Salesforce enables you to build custom applications on the platform. Think about how Sales & Service Clouds are set up with their various features designed for a certain purpose, this can be recreated for any team function.
If you are familiar with Trailhead, you may have already created a few custom applications that will give you a good answer to this question. If not, here are a few ideas…
<> An HR application to help internal teams manage jobs and job applicants.
<> A finance system that can track invoices
<> A goal setting App that can help managers set targets and goals for their team.

Reports will give a clear picture to the management. Management will make use of reports to track progress towards its various goals, increase revenue, and control expenditure. Reports will also help to predict trends and thus gives the advantage of the increase in profits.
There are four types of reports in Salesforce. They are as follows:
Matrix report
A report is formed by grouping the records by rows as well as columns. It is used when you want to see data by two separate dimensions that aren’t related, such as date and product.
Example: Summarize opportunities by account horizontally and by month vertically.
Summary report
A report that provides a listing of data with groupings and subtotals. It is used when subtotals are needed, based on the value of a particular field, or when you want to create a hierarchically grouped report.
Example: All opportunities for your team subtotaled by owner and sales stage.
Tabular report
A report that provides details of a company in tabular format. It is used when you want a simple list or an item list with a grand total.
Example: These reports are used to list all accounts, list of opportunities, list of contacts, etc.
Joined report
A report that is created by the mixture of any combination of reports. Like matrix report plus summary report can give you a joined report. Also, matrix reports and tabular reports can give a joined report.
Example: You can develop a report to display opportunity, case, and activity data for your accounts.

A Permission Set is a collection of settings or permissions that is used to give access to numerous tools and functions for the user. You can use permission sets for different types of users to extend functional access without changing their profiles. Instead of creating a separate profile each time, you could easily create a Permission Set.

A connected app is a framework used to integrate an application with Salesforce with the help of APIs and standard protocols. It uses standard SAML, OAuth, and OpenID Connect protocols to authenticate, authorize, and provide single sign-on (SSO), for external apps. With the help of the Connected app, Salesforce admins can set up security policies and control who can use the corresponding apps.

The external lookup relationship is used to connect the child object to the parent object. The child object may be either a custom, standard, or external object. It uses to identify the correct map of the child object with the parent external object. The external lookup relationship values fields are matched against the External Id values.

Junction objects are useful in building many-to-many relationships between objects in Salesforce.
Consider an example of recruiting application, where a position for a job is linked to many candidates or a candidate can apply for many other jobs. Here, a third-party object “job application†is referred to as a junction object in order to connect the data model. In the above-given example, “job application†is the junction object.

This Master-Detail relationship is the same as the relationship between a parent & child. In this aspect, the master is treated as Parent, and the Detail is a child. The master Object takes control of the behavior of the Detail object. The survival of the child is dependent on the parent because if the Master gets deleted the Detail will also automatically get deleted. You can create Roll-up summary fields in master records which helps in calculating the Min, Avg, Sum of the child records.

* Apex is a strongly typed and object-oriented programming language that permits developers to execute flow and transaction control statements on Salesforce platform servers in conjunction with calls to the API. It uses syntax that looks similar to Java and pretends like database stored procedures.
* Apex allows developers to add business logic to many system events, including Visualforce pages, button clicks, and related record updates. This code can be initiated by requests from web services and from triggers on objects.
* All Apex code runs completely on-demand on the Lightning platform. Apex code is written and saved to the platform by developers. Through the user interface, end-users trigger the execution of Apex code

Before we understand dynamic dashboards, let us first understand static dashboards. Static dashboards are the basic dashboard types that will be visible to any user who has made a report out of his data. An example of this is what a Sales manager/ Marketing manager would be able to see on his Salesforce org. In other words, a normal dashboard shows data only from a single user’s perspective. Now comes the concept of dynamic dashboards.
Dynamic dashboards are used to display information which is tailored to a specific user. Let us consider the same example as above. In case the Sales manager wants to view the report generated specific to only one of his team members, then he can use dynamic dashboards.

A bucket field lets you group related records together by ranges and segments, without the use of complex formulas and custom fields. Bucketing can thus be used to group, filter, or arrange report data. When you create a bucket field, you need to define multiple categories (buckets) that are used to group report values.

Sharing rules are written to give edit access (public read and write) or public read only access to certain individuals in Salesforce org. A classic example is when:- only your managers or superiors need to be given extra credentials to your records in objects as compared to your peers.
By default, all users in your organization will have organization-wide-default sharing settings of either Public Read Only or Private.
To give access to more records, which users do not own, we write sharing rules.
Example: Sharing rules are used to extend sharing access to users in public groups or roles. Hence, sharing rules are not as strict as organization-wide default settings. They allow greater access for those users.
As far as the second part of the question is concerned, the answer is no. We cannot use sharing rules to restrict data access. It is only used for allowing greater access to records.

A standard field record name can have data type of either auto number or text field with a limit of 80 chars.
For generating auto numbers, the format needs to be specified while defining the field and after that for every record that is added, the number will get auto generated. For example:-
Sr No-{1}
Sr No-{2}
Sr No-{3}

<> Workflow in Salesforce allows you to automate standard internal procedures and processes for saving time across your organization. It helps to evaluate records as they are created or updated and determines if an automated action needs to occur.
<> Automation functions in Salesforce include the functions such as sending follow-up emails, tracking the customer map journey, performing other marketing activities to boost the sales of the company, etc.
<> A workflow rule is a major container for a set of workflow instructions. These instructions are usually summed up in an if/then statement. Workflow rules are divided into two main components. They are:
Criteria: The “if†part of the “if/then†statement i.e., what must be true of the record for the workflow rule to execute the related actions.
<> Actions: The “then†part of the “if/then†statement i.e., what to do when the record meets the criteria.
<> Consider an example for a workflow, “if it is raining, then bring an umbrellaâ€. In this example, the criteria are “it is raining†and the action is “bring an umbrellaâ€. If the criteria aren’t met, then the action isn’t executed. The workflow rule’s actions are executed only when a record meets all the criteria of a workflow rule.

<> Master-Detail relationship is a relationship between a parent and child where the master represents the parent and the detail represents a child. This relationship can be used when we want to control the display of detail records based on the value present in the master record.
<> The master object completely takes control of the behavior of the Detail object. The survival of the child is dependent on the parent, because if the parent gets deleted then the child automatically gets deleted. You can create Roll-up summary fields in master records which will calculate the SUM, AVG, and MIN of the child records.
<> Consider an example of a courier company model, where a delivery schedule is always linked to a delivery location. If we delete a delivery location from our list, then all the related delivery schedules should also be removed. Such a dependency can be achieved only through a Master-Detail relationship.

The profile is defined as a collection of rules and procedures a person needs to follow to access particular records. There are multiple profiles available in Salesforce. For example, a sales profile can have access to leads, opportunities, contacts, campaigns, etc.
As far as the second question is considered, the answer would be yes. The people who work in one department have the same profile. So the people who work under a particular department would be assigned with the same profiles.
As we have seen in the sales profile, many people work under it and every person who works under is assigned the same profile. Hence any number of people can have the same profile.

No, it is not possible to edit apex classes and triggers directly in production environment.
It needs to be done first in Developer edition or testing org or in Sandbox org. Then, to deploy it in production, a user with Author Apex permission must deploy the triggers and classes using deployment tools.
However, Visualforce pages can be created and edited in both sandbox and in production.
Only if the page has to do something unique (different values), it would have to be developed via Sandbox.

Profiles determine the level of access a user can have in a Salesforce org.
As far as the first part of the question is concerned, Yes. One profile can be assigned to any number of users. Take the example of a Sales or Service team in a company. The entire team will be assigned the same profile. The admin can create one profile: Sales Profile, which will have access to the Leads, Opportunities, Campaigns, Contacts and other objects deemed necessary by the company.
In this way, many users can be assigned the same profile. In case the team lead or manager need access to additional records/ objects then it can be done by assigning permission sets only for those users.
