The Getting Started flow teaches you how to search, retrieve vectors, rank, filter, and aggregate inside Postgres using ParadeDB. To go to production, you’ll need to choose a deployment option, configure indexes for your queries, and size your infrastructure for your workload.

Production Checklist

  1. Choose the deployment option that works best for you.
  2. Load your data or replicate it from an existing managed Postgres database.
  3. Connect your app to your ParadeDB deployment.
  4. Create and tune your indexes for production scale.
  5. Confirm queries use ParadeDB with EXPLAIN.
  6. Review the upgrade and maintenance guides.
  7. Set up monitoring for query performance and index growth.
When something does not look right, compare the query plan with the relevant query reference page and the Read Throughput notes.
