Remove obsolete Azure-specific dependencies where no longer required.
4. Django REST Framework Backend Updates
Identify and modify Azure-dependent backend code.

Perform backend integration testing.
Validate S3 file operations, PostgreSQL connectivity and secret retrieval.
Test critical Django REST APIs and ERP workflows.
Fix migration-related backend issues.
Support DevOps during deployment and production verification.
