Request – Data Synchronization to Salesforce using IBM webMethods

  • 1.  Request – Data Synchronization to Salesforce using IBM webMethods

    Posted Fri January 09, 2026 06:08 PM

    Good afternoon,

    I hope you are doing well.

    We are currently evaluating and starting an integration architecture to synchronize data into Salesforce using IBM webMethods, and we would appreciate your technical guidance and best-practice recommendations, as we are new to the webMethods platform.

    📌 Architecture Overview

    Please find attached the architecture diagram, which includes the following components:

    • Data Sources:

      • AWS Aurora RDS

      • Google BigQuery

    • Integration Platform:

      • IBM webMethods

    • Target System:

      • Salesforce

    The objective is to extract, transform, and synchronize data from the source databases into Salesforce in a secure

    Support Requested

    We kindly request your guidance on the following points:

    1. Recommended architecture in webMethods for this type of integration.

    2. webMethods components that should be used (e.g., Integration Server, JDBC Adapter, Salesforce Adapter, etc.).

    3. Best practices for:

      • Connecting to AWS Aurora RDS

      • Connecting to Google BigQuery

      • Synchronizing data into Salesforce

    4. Handling large data volumes, error management, and retry mechanisms.

    5. Security and authentication considerations.

    6. Recommendations for implementing an initial PoC or pilot integration flow.

    That is a lot to ask for in a community forum.

    Can you confirm if you are using the PaaS version of webMethods? Assuming yes, the components you referenced would likely be used, but the implementation details are hidden away. You just use them via the managed platform.

    Aurora RDS, BigQuery, and Salesforce can all be Internet accessible. If they are, you won't need a hybrid architecture or private networking. If any of the components are on a private network, it gets more complicated, but the platform has multiple good options.
