   A large enterprise needs to integrate Salesforce with a legacy mainframe system. The mainframe only supports batch file transfers (SFTP) and cannot handle real-time API calls. The business requires that customer data be synchronized daily, and the integration must be auditable and support error handling. The company has a strong MuleSoft team but limited Apex skills. Which approach should the architect recommend?

   • AUse MuleSoft to orchestrate the SFTP file transfer, transform the data, and call Bulk API to load it into Salesforce.
   • BUse Platform Events to publish the mainframe data to Salesforce.
   • CUse Salesforce Connect to access the mainframe data directly via OData.
   • DUse Apex scheduled jobs to poll the SFTP server, parse the file, and insert records via Bulk API.
