I asked Doug about his own experiences and the lessons which he now teaches to fellow developers. We discuss the value of asking more questions to uncover the depths of requirements and how...

In this series of interviews I will be speaking with people on the frontline of Salesforce architecture & development.

In conversation with Peter Coffee (@petercoffee) at the November 2016 French Touch Dreamin' conference in Paris. Peter is VP for Strategic Research at Salesforce and his Twitter bio describes him thus; "I work with app developers and CIOs to build a global community of innovation, service and success". As you will hear, Peter is never stuck for a quote, a metric or a research finding to support his arguments that when building modern software architectures, there is no advantage in duplicating what has been done in times past.

info_outlineThis week we are paying a visit to the Dreamforce IoT Zone.
We’ll hear from Doug Merrett and his robot Sparky. Doug is a Principal Enterprise Architect at Salesforce.
Even though it is 2015 and these techniques have been used for decades to build cars and sort parcels for delivery, not everyone makes the connection that the software which they use on their phone or web browser can affect and interact with the physical world, and for me this is really what the IoT Zone at Dreamforce is all about, helping people imagine what is possible and apply what they have learned to their own situation.
The technology of IoT has progressed rapidly and has made its way into many products we come into contact with every day. Before we get to Doug and Sparky, we have a tour of the IoT Zone from Pat Patterson. Pat is Developer Evangelist Architect at Salesforce https://www.linkedin.com/in/metadaddy and he walked and talked me around some of the major products on show which are connected through the new Salesforce IoT cloud.

All the technology related zones at Dreamforce on the second floor of the Moscone West building were buzzing and they clearly made an impact on Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff as he gave mention in his Q&A session to both Adam Seligman, Senior VP Developer Relations and to Pat.
