The delivery team contributes to the migration of backend data while preserving the existing application architecture, ensuring business continuity and minimizing operational risk. This initiative supports the consolidation of fragmented data sources into modern platforms, improves data accessibility and quality, enhances regulatory compliance capabilities, and establishes a scalable cloud-based foundation for future digital services and advanced analytics.
