Dataverse to SharePoint Migration for Storage Cost Optimization

Data and file migration strategy to balance platform performance with storage costs in an enterprise environment.

Challenge

Dataverse storage costs increased as records and attachments grew, creating scaling pressure on the overall platform strategy.

Solution

I implemented a controlled migration from Dataverse to SharePoint for high-volume content, while keeping critical transactional data in Dataverse. Synchronization and validation flows were added to preserve traceability.

Key Technical Decisions

Segmented data by business criticality and storage behavior.
Automated record movement without disrupting daily operations.
Added consistency checks before and after migration waves.

Outcome

Storage costs were reduced without compromising operational usability or business-critical data integrity.
