Deployment

Use separate Linkiir environments and promote controlled, versioned project packages through the lifecycle.

Environment	Primary purpose	Typical queue	Typical Log DB
DEV	Build and debug interfaces	Bundled Kafka or local queue profile	SQLite
TEST	Integration, regression, and customer validation	Bundled or external Kafka	SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MS SQL
PROD	Live healthcare processing	External Kafka	PostgreSQL or MS SQL
HA	Production continuity — an active/standby pair	Resilient external broker cluster, 3 nodes	Shared resilient PostgreSQL/MS SQL

For the HA design, topologies, and planning, see High Availability.

Use Import and Export to move projects without copying environment-specific secrets.
