Scalability

Your Company Will Never Outgrow Force.com

With a subscriber base that has grown in the past ten years to serve more than 51,800 customers, the Force.com platform has proven its ability to scale—both as a cloud computing solution provider and in its ability to accommodate each customer’s instance. Force.com now processes more than ten billion total transactions per quarter, more than half of which are Web services integration transactions. In addition, Force.com solutions easily accommodate customizations—our customers have created more than 400,000 custom objects, 11 million lines of Apex Code, and 50,000 Visualforce pages stored and run on the Force.com platform.

Three state-of-the-art data centers feature carrier-class bandwidth and the latest infrastructure already configured to serve more than a million subscribers. And because we provide a true multitenant architecture, all the functionality that benefits our largest customers is available to our smallest customers as well. So that Zagat Survey, with five users, benefits from the same high-scale service capabilities and functionality as companies like Japan Post with more than 65,000 subscribers worldwide.

No matter the size of your user community, Force.com will work for you. As your volume of users, data, and transactions grows, the Force.com platform will scale with you, without requiring re-architecturing or data migrations. So you can grow without growing pains.
