The project is data-centered, requiring the storage and retrieval of structured data.
Structured data is the most important point. Implementing a YouTube-like application
on Force.com is not the best idea, because it primarily works with unstructured
data in the form of video streams. Force.com supports binary data, so a
video-sharing Web site is certainly possible to build. But handling large amounts of
binary data is not a focus or core competency of Force.com.A hotel reservation
system is an example of a more natural fit.

The user interface is composed primarily of wizards, grids, forms, and reports.
Force.com does not restrict you to these user interface patterns.You can implement
any type of user interface, including “rich” clients that run using Flash in the
browser, and even full desktop applications that integrate with Force.com via its
Apex Web Services API. But to capture the most benefit from the platform, stick
with structured, data-driven user interfaces that use standard Web technologies such
as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
The underlying business processes involve email, spreadsheets, threaded discussions,
and hierarchies of people who participate in a distributed, asynchronous workflow.
Standard Force.com features such as Chatter,workflow, approvals, and email services
add a lot of value to these applications.They can be configured by business analysts
or controlled in-depth by developers.

The rules around data sharing and security are fine-grained and based on organizational roles
and user identity
User identity management and security are deep subjects and typically require high
effort to implement in a custom system.With Force.com, they are standard, highly
configurable components that you can leverage without coding.You can then spend
more time thinking through the “who can see what” scenarios rather than coding
the infrastructure to make them possible.

The project requires integration with other systems.
Force.com is built from the ground up to interoperate with other systems at all its
layers: data, business logic, and user interface.The infrastructure is taken care of, so
you can focus on the integration design. Exchange a million rows of data between
your SQL Server database and Force.com. Call your Apex services from a legacy
J2EE application or vice versa.Add an event to a Google calendar from within
yourVisualforce user interface.These scenarios and more are fully supported by the
platform.
