Salesforce Dreamforce 2026

Welcome to The Ravet Show.

We are here at Dreamforce 2026, and look who I have with me.

Wala, Chief Evangelist at Salesforce.

Super excited to have you on The Ravet Show.

It's your debut.

Uh, first of all, I've had, like, a blast in the last two days here at Dreamforce, and it's like a festival, like you said, right? Off-air we were just discussing about it, and it's definitely like a festival.

We love it.

Uh, let's start with a quick intro.

A quick disclosure before we start today.

Salesforce paid for my flight and hotel to be at Dreamforce 2026.

They didn't get to see the questions ahead of time, and they didn't get a say in what made the cut.

With that...

As a developer, some of us dream of starting our own thing so we can say goodbye to the man.

But then we hit the problem of sales and marketing and service and all the things that one person just can't do.

I'm still at Dreamforce 2026.

Victor's not with me, but today I have with me Eddie Cliff.

Hi everyone, welcome to The Rawat Show.

We are here at Dreamforce 2026, and I'm super excited to be with Savinay Berry from Salesforce.

So, Savinay, welcome to The Rawat Show.

It's your debut.

Excited to be here.

Awesome.

First of all, what's happening here at Dreamforce? I know of where we were chatting about you meeting the customers, discussing it with the community, what's happening in the MDM world.

Tell us a little bit more about what's happening at Dreamforce, and also a little bit about your role.

Welcome to The Robert Show.

We are here at Dreamforce 2026, and look who are with me, Valia, CIO of SharkNinja.

I'm super excited to chat with you today.

Me too.

Yes

... that you've been doing nonstop as well.

Uh, talking about, you know, obviously being here at Dreamforce, uh, how are you working with Salesforce? Tell us a little bit more about that.

Yeah.

They need to sort that harness out.

Guys, I am delighted to bring you this week's guest, actually recorded at Dreamforce in San Francisco, which was kind of like recording a podcast at a music festival that's about technology.

It was wild.

Imagine, like, your biggest music heroes, but actually it's tech heroes.

That's what it felt like, and Salesforce had a major partnership announcement just before with Anthropic, and then they put Sam Altman on the stage, but also Jensen was there and so was Dario.

All the big leaders were there.

And to my Aussies listening, if you couldn't make it to Dreamforce, Agentforce World Tour Essentials is in Sydney on the 20th of October, that's this month, and Melbourne on the 27th of October.

The link is in the show notes.

So like, you know, throwing a conference, putting on Pacific Bitcoin, for instance, that's a lot easier to do as an kind of agnostic, nonpartisan media organization of some kind or like a meetup that grows into, you know, a meetup organizer and ends up doing a regional conference, something like that.

It's a little harder to get a lot of people from the Bitcoin industry to come sponsor a company's conference, which is why most company conferences end up kind of like Dreamforce, where, you know, Salesforce foots the bill essentially for a lot of it.

They may sell tickets, but, you know, the actual cost for somebody to attend is dramatically larger than what they actually pay for the ticket.

So that's kind of where you're disadvantaged to some degree.

All right, we are back with another MVP, minimum viable, but most valuable podcast episode of AppAssemblyLine.

This time we'll be talking about the highlights from Dreamforce 2026 that directly impact Salesforce ISVs.

First, I want to talk a little bit about how some of the announcements change how we'll be building and developing on the platform.

Next, I want to talk about how some of the announcements directly impact how we'll be distributing our apps and agents as well as some cost considerations to keep in mind.
