Explanation
The typical and worst-case historical response times, and how many concurrent service calls are being placed are two considerations that an integration architect should make when building a scalable integration solution for synchronous callouts to "available to promise" services. These two factors can affect the performance, reliability, and availability of the integration solution, as well as the user experience of the customer checkout process. The integration architect should design the solution to handle high volumes of service calls, optimize the response times, handle errors and timeouts, and avoid hitting governor limits or service quotas.
