Production Environment Overview
Working with the FinHub API Production Environment
FinHub API Production Environment
Welcome to the FinHub API Production Environment - the final stage in your journey to implementing FinHub’s embedded finance solutions in a live environment.
What is the Production Environment?
The Production Environment is the live, customer-facing environment where real financial transactions take place. It operates under strict security, compliance, and performance requirements to ensure reliable and secure financial operations.
Key Features of the Production Environment
- Live Financial Data: Real financial transactions with actual monetary impact
- Maximum Security: Comprehensive security measures including certificate-based authentication
- High Availability: Enterprise-grade infrastructure with redundancy and failover
- Monitoring & Alerting: Real-time monitoring and incident response
- Compliance Controls: Full regulatory compliance measures
- SLA Guarantees: Service level agreements for uptime and performance
Key Differences from Integration
| Feature | Integration | Production |
|---|---|---|
| Authentication | Production-equivalent | Full certificate-based with HSM |
| Security Requirements | Enhanced | Maximum (including IP restrictions) |
| Rate Limits | Moderate | Strict (based on contract) |
| Data | Test data | Live financial data |
| Support | Integration support | Production support with SLA |
| Monitoring | Basic | Comprehensive with alerting |
