Recommended path:

  1. Deploy with Kubernetes (use Helm charts)
  2. Start with 3 replicas for high availability
  3. Enable monitoring (Prometheus + Grafana)
  4. Configure TLS with cert-manager
  5. Set up automated backups (daily)
  6. Use the TypeScript SDK for client applications
  7. Monitor metrics and adjust resources

For Full Production

Before wide release:

  1. Complete admin dashboard (2-3 days)
  2. Assemble full mobile app (2-3 days)
  3. Run field tests with pilot users (1-2 weeks)
  4. Collect and address feedback
  5. Performance tuning based on real load

Estimated Time to Full Production: 3-4 weeks
