This document discusses techniques for addressing large data volumes (LDV) in Salesforce orgs, including big objects. Big objects are a special type of object designed to store and retrieve large data volumes using big data technology. The document also provides a use case where a company wants to archive closed cases to free up storage space while maintaining access. It recommends using a custom big object to address these needs. The webinar will demonstrate creating and deploying a custom big object and retrieving data using asynchronous SOQL.
