  Adjust Dependencies: Ensure that any dependent objects (like queries, data sources, etc.) are also adjusted to point to the new global CompositeProvider.
  
  
  Testing: After making the changes, test the new global CompositeProvider to ensure it functions as expected.
  
  
  Documentation: Document the changes made for future reference and to inform other team members about the new global CompositeProvider.
