Hyperforce is our new next-generation infrastructure technology. More specifically, Hyperforce is designed to run on public clouds instead of current first-party data centers run by Salesforce, which means your organization can more effectively manage data residency (that is, where data is stored), data security and privacy, and overall agility (that is, working faster with zero downtime updates).
This video will help you better understand Hyperforce, its benefits, and what it means for your organization!
To make sure admins feel prepared for the Hyperforce upgrade, we’ve launched Hyperforce Assistant. For admins who were part of the Lightning implementation, this will feel very familiar! For those new to their admin role—don’t worry! We’ve got you covered with everything you’ll need to know, and will walk you through accessing and using Hyperforce Assistant. In addition to the information below, we recommend checking out this episode of Expert Corner with LeeAnne Rimel and Samuel Sharaf. The episode gets into the specifics of Hyperforce Assistant via demo, and is helpful in getting a visual of what you can expect to see in your instance.
At a high level, Hyperforce Assistant is an easy-to-use app designed to guide eligible customers and orgs to prepare for and manage their Hyperforce upgrade. Hyperforce Assistant provides a step-by-step guide to upgrade from Salesforce-managed physical data centers to Hyperforce.
As customers upgrade to Hyperforce globally, we want to ensure admins feel confident about the steps to take to ensure a seamless upgrade experience. Hyperforce Assistant supports that journey by providing Salesforce org-contextual verification checks, best practices, and recommendations.
As a part of the Winter ’22 release, Hyperforce Assistant became available for all Salesforce customers eligible to upgrade to Hyperforce. To find out if your organization already has the assistant enabled and to check the date of your Hyperforce upgrade, go to your Setup menu where you will see Hyperforce Assistant. If your Salesforce org is not eligible yet and you would like it to upgrade to Hyperforce, please contact your account executive.
Once on the Hyperforce homepage, you’ll see the scheduled date of your implementation, and you’ll also have access to the first two phases within the assistant: learn and prepare.
The assistant has four total phases: learn, prepare, upgrade, and manage. As mentioned above, the first two phases are available now for eligible customers, and include steps and information you can get started on today, such as:
There are a number of exciting enhancements to the Hyperforce Assistant in this Spring ’23 release, such as:
Admins can navigate to the Setup home to start your upgrade journey to Hyperforce using Hyperforce Assistant. The best way to ensure your organization is prepared is to go through the two available phases (learn and prepare) and understand where there might be additional work for your org to get ready for implementation.
As always, we appreciate your feedback in the Trailblazer Community Hyperforce group. Happy upgrading!

Gosh, it just seemed like yesterday that I was putting together my blog post about Summer. But here we are, getting ready for Winter ’25. I find it a bit comforting to think about snow as a way to cool down in this 80/90 degree weather we’ve been having in Boston. Mochi (my Pomeranian) would […]
Most admins don’t have the luxury of managing only a single Salesforce instance. Frequently, data is strewn across multiple orgs and can be difficult to integrate. That’s where Data Cloud comes in, providing the ability to create a single source of truth across Salesforce orgs. Even if you are the lucky admin with a single […]
