Dreamforce 2020: Hyperforce shifts Salesforce to public cloud
Summary
The supplier’s software-as-a-service sales and marketing automation products have always had a measure of delivery over the type of public cloud infrastructure associated with AWS, Google, Microsoft and Alibaba. A company spokesperson has confirmed Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform and Alibaba as partners, and added: “Hyperforce is a long-term project. Hyperforce allows resources to be deployed in the public cloud quickly and easily – reducing implementation time from months to just weeks or even days. “Hyperforce’s security architecture limits users to appropriate levels of access to customer data, protecting sensitive information from human error or misconfiguration. Adrian Hallmark, chairman and CEO of Bentley Motors, said: “Combining our values and vision with Salesforce’s technology will enable us to fundamentally reinvent our brand for the next century by evolving the way we engage with our customers digitally – not only to supplement the real-world experience but to create deeper, long-lasting relationships with our customers.” The keynote was hosted by English comedian James Corden and concluded with a performance by US heavy metal band Metallica.
