Hi @Pratikmsbsvm 

We're still missing some context, but generally speaking I would say consuming silver layer data is the way.

Of course, it dependes of use-case and project needs, however, as I understand medallion architecture:

a) bronze layer data is "raw" data with no significant transformations or no transformations at all,

b) silver layer would be cleansed data, with possible business-logic transformations applied, perfectly in delta table format (ACID, time travel and all the other features). 

Please visit this topic also to dive deeper ๐Ÿ™‚

Best,

Radek.
