Rural Payments Service (RPS) comprises of business critical applications including the Rural Payments Portal - Siti Agri, the Customer Portal and database, the Land Management System (LMS) and the Data Warehouse (DWH).

This strategy is to safeguard a specific service that Defra requires and to investigate other longer-term options to move to the cloud and become more cloud native.
