Production Checklist

Use this checklist before go-live.

Security and identity​

  • Set stable ENCRYPTION_KEY
  • Set stable JWT_PRIVATE_KEY
  • Remove bootstrap credentials after first setup
  • Use scoped API keys (least privilege)

Network boundaries​

  • Keep Nango internal-only (no public host port)
  • Expose only intended public interfaces
  • Ensure internal proxy paths are not internet-routable

Data and durability​

  • Use persistent volumes for Postgres and object storage
  • Configure backups and restore drill cadence
  • Verify migration behavior in staging before release

Runtime and scaling​

  • Right-size executor services for expected load
  • Configure WORKER_COUNT based on async volume
  • Validate timeout and memory settings for real workloads

Observability​

  • Ensure logs, metrics, and alerts are enabled
  • Define alert thresholds for error rate, latency, and queue delays
  • Add a synthetic health check for invoke path

Release safety​

  • Promote through dev then staging before prod
  • Keep rollback playbook ready (version rollback + traffic control)
  • Verify MCP and CLI flows against production-like staging
