Define and implement optimal database configurations, including storage, memory, and other relevant parameters, ensuring performance and scalability across both environments.

Collaborate with infrastructure and application teams to understand database requirements and design appropriate hybrid or cloud-native solutions.

Database Migration to New Server Environment (with Azure DR Focus): Plan and execute the migration of existing SQL Server databases from source servers to the new environment, strategically considering Azure for DR implementation.
