Org Cleaning is part of Well-Architected

By , Salesforce CTA·1 min read·First shared on LinkedIn,

The Well-Architected Framework went from 3 pillars to 5

  • One of them: Operational Excellence
  • Another: Resource & Cost Optimization

Translation: Running a clean Org is now officially architecture

For years cleanup was the job nobody wanted

"We'll do it after the next release"

The next release never ended

If Salesforce itself puts cost and operations

  • next to Trust and Reliability
  • your cleanup backlog is no longer "nice to have"

It's the foundation everything else is built on.

Is cleanup on your roadmap for 2027, or still "later"?

PS: Thanks a lot Miriam McCabe, Lilith Van Biesen and the whole Architect Team at Salesforce!
