GRAX

GRAX is the leading Salesforce data platform built for data protection and AI.

When you're managing 14 Salesforce orgs across a global medical device operation, data protection isn't a nice-to-have, it's the difference between passing an audit and scrambling through one. That's exactly why this company turned to GRAX to continuously replicate their Salesforce data to Azure Cloud, giving them full ownership and control over 18+ TB of critical data.

Here's what they gained:
🔄 Compliance — Continuous replication keeps all 14 orgs protected, audit-ready, and maintaining a digital chain of custody
🛡️ Security — Full backup, restore, and archival with "Salesforce Time Machine" accessibility for any point-in-time recovery
📊 Strategy — Salesforce data integrated via Azure Synapse into Tableau, Power BI, Salesforce Data Cloud, and Agentforce

100% data retention. In their own cloud. On their own terms.

The most expensive bugs aren't found in testing. They're found by your customers.

And the usual culprit isn't bad code, it's unrealistic test data. When your sandbox is filled with placeholder records that look nothing like production, your tests pass and your releases still break.

Proper Sandbox Seeding with GRAX fixes the root problem. It seeds any Salesforce environment, whether developer, partial, full sandboxes, scratch orgs, even production, with real production data, complete hierarchy and all.

The part compliance teams love: sensitive data and PII get anonymized on the way in, so realistic testing never means exposed customer data.

GDPR and CCPA stay supported, automations can be switched off mid-test, and reusable templates mean reseeding takes minutes instead of becoming a quarterly project.

Test against reality, and ship with confidence.

🔄 How stale is your Salesforce data — and what's it costing you?

Most teams don't think about sync lag until a dashboard looks wrong, a compliance report misses recent changes, or a customer portal shows outdated information. By then, the gap has already done damage.

Here's what delayed replication actually affects:
📊 Sales forecasting: pipeline reports built on yesterday's data lead to decisions that don't reflect today's reality 🎧 Customer service — stale case data in portals creates a disconnect between what agents see and what customers read
🤖 AI & analytics: models and dashboards are only as good as the data feeding them
✅ Compliance: changes that happened after the last sync don't make it into reports when it matters

GRAX's near-real-time replication continuously captures every Salesforce change and lands it directly in your own AWS, Azure, or GCP environment, no intermediary, no vendor holding your data.

Our new blog post covers sync architectures, error handling, data drift prevention, and how to match the right approach to each use case.

Worth a read if you manage Salesforce data at any scale.

Raise your hand if "emails and attachments eating 85% of your Salesforce storage" sounds familiar. 🙋

That was the reality for one global corporate travel company — 13,500 employees, 140+ countries, and three Salesforce orgs each holding 500GB of data with no real backup strategy in place.

Here's what GRAX helped them do:
🗄️ Archived the emails & attachments that were killing their storage 🔐 Built an actual backup and data protection strategy (finally)
☁️ Moved everything into their own AWS infrastructure — 100% data ownership
📊 Started reusing that Salesforce data in Amazon Redshift via GRAX Data Lake

One tool to handle all of it. No more duct tape.

Your Salesforce data is only as protected as your last intentional decision. 🔐
Not your last login. Not your last export. Your last intentional decision.
Here's what our new guide covers:

✅ How to classify data by sensitivity — and actually act on it
✅ Why RBAC drift is a silent compliance killer
✅ The real gap between native backup tools and what your org actually needs
✅ How to build governance that doesn't fall apart when people leave or roles change

The guide is free. The data breach isn't. 👇

Is your Salesforce org moving to Hyperforce? Here's what you actually need to know before that happens.

☁️ Hyperforce runs on public cloud (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), not Salesforce-owned data centers
🌍 Data residency is available in 12 countries, but it's NOT the same as data sovereignty
🔒 Your data isn't automatically backed up just because you're on Hyperforce
⚠️ Common migration gotchas: hard-coded URLs, static IP allowlists, and deployment package changes
✅ A hybrid approach (some orgs migrated, some not) is possible, but gets complicated fast

We've got a complete guide walking through architecture, migration steps, supported countries, known issues, and real-world case studies.

Here's a GDPR scenario that catches a lot of Salesforce teams off guard:

A customer submits a "right to be forgotten" request. You delete their record from Salesforce. Done, right? ✅

Not quite. ❌

Under GDPR, the erasure obligation extends to ALL copies of that personal data — including backups. If your backup files have no expiry policy, no automated deletion, and no flagging mechanism tied to your DSR workflow, that deleted record is still sitting in your backup environment. Indefinitely.

That's not a hypothetical risk. It's one of the most common compliance failures our team sees — and it's one of the main things we cover in our new guide to Salesforce GDPR compliance.

The guide walks through:
🗑️ Why native Salesforce backup tools fall short of GDPR requirements
⏳ How to design retention schedules that respect storage limitation
🔍 What a GDPR-aware erasure process for backups actually looks like
🔒 The security controls (encryption, access management, audit logging) that Article 32 expects
📋 How to vet third-party backup vendors for GDPR readiness

If your team manages personal data in Salesforce, this one's worth a read.

💡 Quick question: Does your org have a Salesforce data retention policy, or just a vague plan to "clean things up eventually"?

There's a big gap between the two. Here's what a real policy needs to cover:
📋 Retention periods by data type (Contacts, Opportunities, Cases, PHI, and more)
⚖️ Regulatory mapping for GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, SOX & FINRA
🗂️ What to do with backups, sandbox copies, and integrated systems
🔒 Legal holds, and how to make sure automation doesn't delete what it shouldn't
🤖 Safe, auditable automated deletion workflows

We just published the complete guide. Whether you're starting from scratch or tightening up existing controls, it's all here 👇

📋 Is your Salesforce org SOX compliant?

If your team uses Salesforce for anything touching financial data — contracts, revenue forecasts, order processing — SOX compliance isn't optional. And the penalties for getting it wrong can reach $5 million per violation.

GRAX's comprehensive guide breaks down exactly what SOX compliance looks like inside Salesforce: access controls, audit trails, change management, the right tools, and how to build a strategy that holds up long-term.
