The first deployment

The following is a snapshot of a typical workflow and checklist when moving from evaluation to validation. The list below represents a set of activities and resources that are commonly used to support engineering, product, dev-ops and legal teams as you prepare for a larger scale deployment.
This guide illustrates a typical process flow for customers that have already onboarded with an account manager. Contact us to find out how you can get started!

First deployment checklist

1

Setup users and download your license

Ensure that all users or service accounts are signed up within the Limina customer portal and are linked to your organization. Contact support at support@getlimina.ai if you require assistance.

Understand your data and redaction needs

Limina supports a wide variety of file modalities and entity types. It is important to understand the “shape” of your data, the intended outcome, and the anticipated downstream processing steps, as these all impact the features selected and the overall architecture of your pipeline. This includes:
1
An understanding of the Supported Languages
2
An understanding of the Supported File types
3
An understanding of the Supported Entities
4
A review of the Applicable Regulations
5
A review of the detection options in Customizing detection
6
A review of the redaction options in Customizing redaction
5

Understanding processing best practices

The design of the data pipeline is highly dependent on the anticipated modalities, latency requirements, throughput requirements and overall traffic patterns. A solid understanding of the Supported File types, and how each file type is processed. As well as the best practices when working with structured data. Is recommended.
6

Understanding deployment

Infrastructure questions are most commonly covered by Minimum Requirements and Benchmarks. Kubernetes is recommended for production deployments and a customizable helm chart is available to support these installations.
7

Understanding security

Lastly, your security and legal teams will want to have a look at Security and our FAQ. Paying special attention to the differences in how certification works when the solution is hosted and managed entirely on-prem.
