## The challenge

A global pharma company's field-sales platform was a legacy monolithic SaaS application that needed to move to a cloud-native architecture.

## Our approach

We migrated the platform incrementally to containerised services on Kubernetes with PostgreSQL, rather than attempting a big-bang rewrite. Field reps got mobile-first tools, and personal data is handled in line with GDPR.

## Architecture

- **Users**: Mobile-first tools for field reps
- **Services**: Containerised microservices, Legacy monolith (retired step by step)
- **Platform**: Kubernetes
- **Data**: PostgreSQL, GDPR-compliant data handling

Illustrative architecture, simplified to protect client confidentiality.
