Salesforce Asia-Pacific regional studies reveal that in the last quarter, APAC has been the fastest-growing Salesforce hub. This growth will be further fostered by expanding its infrastructure footprint in liaison with Amazon’s cloud. Leveraging the AWS cloud bestows Salesforce with the potential to deliver secure, reliable, and rapid intelligent customer services.
