Migrating to Hyperforce: What You Need to Know
While the benefits of Hyperforce are convincing, it is important to understand the migration process. Salesforce has made it clear that migrating to Hyperforce is not optional; it is the future of the platform. However, the transition will take place gradually over time as part of the modernization efforts of Salesforce.
Organizations will be notified when their instance is eligible for migration, requiring proactive preparation. For those concerned about the timeline for migration, Salesforce recommends reaching out to their account representatives for assistance. It is also crucial to follow technical best practices, such as updating hardcoded references, IP address ranges, and remote site names to ensure seamless integration with Hyperforce.
Current Limitations and Known Issues
Despite its potential, Hyperforce does have its limitations and challenges. Currently, data residency support is only available in certain countries, limiting its global impact. Additionally, there are some known issues, such as disruptions in Einstein loading and problems with certain managed packages, highlighting the importance of thorough testing and troubleshooting during migration.
