The newly created DataLayer Platform team in Pune will take ownership of embedding the DataLayer into Bloomberg runtimes, providing seamless integration with the Bloomberg Terminal and backend services. This will require the team to work closely with other DataLayer teams as well as multiple infrastructure teams to ensure that DataLayer works as efficiently and performant as possible in those runtimes.
