Given a graph represented as an adjacency list, write a function to perform a Depth-First Search (DFS) traversal starting from a given node. The function should print each visited node. Also, provide an example graph and demonstrate how your function would traverse it. Explain the time and space complexity of your solution. For example, consider the following graph: { 0: [1, 2], 1: [2], 2: [0, 3], 3: [3] } If we start the DFS traversal from node 2, the expected output would be: 2, 0, 1, 3 (or another valid DFS traversal order). Your function should: Take the graph (adjacency list) and a starting node as input. Implement DFS traversal. Print each visited node. Correctly handle cycles to avoid infinite loops. Analyze and state the time and space complexity of your implementation.

Let's discuss the system design of your existing Salesforce integration with a Java backend. Could you please elaborate on the architecture, including specific details about data flow, integration patterns, and technologies used? For example, walk me through a scenario where a new account is created in Salesforce, and how that information propagates to your Java backend system. What mechanisms are in place for real-time updates versus batch processing? How do you handle data transformations and ensure data integrity across both systems? What are the key considerations for scalability, security, and fault tolerance in your design? Finally, describe the monitoring and alerting mechanisms you have implemented to ensure the integration is running smoothly and to quickly identify and address any issues that may arise. Provide details on the error handling strategies employed to prevent data loss or corruption in the event of failures.
