Last updated: 2026-04-12 Status: NOT READY — 5 critical blockers remain Target launch: TBD (pending blocker resolution) Sign-off required from: SRE Engineer, DevOps Engineer, CTO

Summary

Category	Pass	Fail	Blocked	Total
Infrastructure	1	3	0	4
Application Quality	2	1	0	3
Operations	3	0	0	3
Security	0	1	0	1
Performance	0	0	1	1
Total	6	5	1	12

Checklist

1. Load Testing Results (K6 Baseline)

Field	Value
Status	PARTIAL PASS
Owner	SRE Engineer
Evidence	`load-tests/results/BASELINE-REPORT.md`
Date tested	2026-04-09

Findings:

K6 v1.7.1 baseline run completed against local dev environment
4 test suites executed: Auth, Listings, Search, Payments
Latency SLAs met at framework level (p50 < 3ms, p95 < 6ms, p99 < 19ms)
Error rate SLA FAILED — auth/listings/payments return HTTP 500 due to dev-environment dependency issues (Prisma/DB not fully configured)
Search tests skipped (Typesense unavailable in dev)

Blocker: Load tests must be re-run against a staging environment with fully operational backend dependencies (PostgreSQL, Redis, Typesense, VNPay sandbox). Framework-level latency is validated; business logic performance is not.

Required action:

Provision staging environment with all dependencies
Re-run K6 suites against staging
Validate error rate < 1% across all critical paths
Document production-equivalent load test results

2. Security Penetration Test Sign-off

Field	Value
Status	FAIL
Owner	CTO / DevOps Engineer
Evidence	None — no formal pen-test report exists

Findings:

Automated security scanning exists (.github/workflows/security.yml, .github/workflows/codeql.yml)
No formal third-party or manual penetration test has been conducted
No security sign-off document exists

Blocker: Production launch requires a formal security assessment covering OWASP Top 10, authentication flows (JWT, OAuth, CSRF), payment endpoint security, and API authorization boundaries.

Required action:

Schedule penetration test (internal or third-party)
Scope: auth flows, payment callbacks (VNPay/MoMo/ZaloPay), admin endpoints, file upload, geospatial API
Remediate critical/high findings
Obtain signed pen-test report and remediation confirmation

3. Monitoring Alert Thresholds Configured

Field	Value
Status	PASS
Owner	SRE Engineer
Evidence	`monitoring/prometheus/alert-rules.yml`

Findings:

15+ Prometheus alert rules configured across multiple groups:
- goodgo_api_latency — p99 latency warnings (>1s), critical SLO breach (>3s), per-endpoint latency
- goodgo_api_errors — 5xx error rate alerts
- goodgo_database — connection pool exhaustion, query latency
- goodgo_infrastructure — disk, memory, CPU, container health
Alert severity levels: warning and critical
Runbook URLs linked in alert annotations
Grafana dashboards referenced for investigation
AlertManager integration configured

Status: READY — Alert thresholds are well-defined and follow best practices.

4. Backup/Restore Verification Completed

Field	Value
Status	PASS
Owner	SRE Engineer / DevOps Engineer
Evidence	`docs/backup-restore.md`, `.github/workflows/backup-verify.yml`

Findings:

Daily automated PostgreSQL backups (02:00 UTC) via pg_dump custom format
7-day retention policy (configurable via BACKUP_RETENTION_DAYS)
Automated weekly backup verification via GitHub Actions workflow
RTO target: ≤ 30 minutes | RPO target: ≤ 24 hours
Manual backup/restore procedures documented
Restore tested and documented with step-by-step runbook

Status: READY — Backup procedures are automated, verified, and documented.

Recommendation: Consider WAL archiving for continuous point-in-time recovery to reduce RPO below 24 hours.

5. Incident Response Runbook Reviewed

Field	Value
Status	PASS
Owner	SRE Engineer
Evidence	`docs/RUNBOOK.md`

Findings:

Comprehensive 41KB runbook covering:
- Service inventory and health checks
- 10 common incident scenarios (DB pool exhaustion, Redis failure, Typesense unavailable, high latency, payment callback failures, disk alerts, MinIO failure, AI service outage, log pipeline failure, 5xx spikes)
- 6 recovery procedures (DB restore, Redis flush, rolling restart, rollback, Typesense reindex, full host recovery)
- Escalation matrix
- Monitoring dashboard links
- Useful PromQL queries
- Environment quick reference
Last updated: 2026-04-11

Status: READY — Runbook is thorough and up to date.

6. Database Schema Frozen (Migration Lockdown)

Field	Value
Status	PASS (conditional)
Owner	DevOps Engineer / CTO
Evidence	`prisma/migrations/` (16 migrations), `prisma/migrations/migration_lock.toml`

Findings:

16 sequential Prisma migrations exist
Latest migration: 20260411200000_add_mfa_totp_support (2026-04-11)
Migration lock file present (migration_lock.toml)
22 database models defined (User, Property, Listing, Payment, Subscription, etc.)
PostGIS extension configured for geospatial queries

Condition: Schema must be formally frozen before launch. Recent migrations (4 on 2026-04-10/11) indicate active schema changes. A freeze date must be declared and no new migrations accepted after that date without CTO sign-off.

Required action:

Declare schema freeze date (recommended: 48 hours before launch)
Communicate freeze to all developers
CTO approval required for any post-freeze schema changes

7. CI/CD Pipeline Green (Lint, Typecheck, Test, Build)

Field	Value
Status	PASS
Owner	DevOps Engineer
Evidence	`.github/workflows/` (7 workflows)

Findings:

ci.yml — Full pipeline: lint → typecheck → test → build
deploy.yml — Deployment automation
e2e.yml — Playwright E2E test suite
security.yml — Automated security scanning
codeql.yml — GitHub CodeQL analysis
load-test.yml — K6 load test automation
backup-verify.yml — Weekly backup verification

Status: READY — CI/CD pipeline is comprehensive and covers the full quality gate (lint, typecheck, unit tests, build, E2E, security, load testing).

8. E2E Test Results

Field	Value
Status	FAIL
Owner	DevOps Engineer / Backend Engineers
Evidence	`e2e/` (31 test spec files across `api/`, `web/`, `load/`)

Findings:

31 E2E test spec files covering API and Web surfaces
Test infrastructure: Playwright with global setup/teardown
Organized by domain: api/ (backend API tests), web/ (frontend browser tests), load/ (load scenario tests)
2 tests currently failing (per last Playwright run)
No saved test-results/.last-run.json available for detailed failure analysis

Blocker: All E2E tests must pass before production launch.

Status	BLOCKED
Owner	SRE Engineer
Evidence	`load-tests/results/BASELINE-REPORT.md` (partial)

Findings:

Framework-level latency benchmarks documented (p50/p95/p99)
Business logic benchmarks not available (auth returns 500, search unavailable)
No production-equivalent performance profile exists
Blocked on staging environment availability

Blocker: Cannot establish meaningful performance benchmarks without a staging environment running all dependencies.

Required action:

Provision staging environment
Run K6 suites with real database, Redis, Typesense
Document per-endpoint latency baselines (auth, listings CRUD, search, payments)
Establish throughput capacity (max concurrent users per instance)
Document resource utilization under load (CPU, memory, connections)

10. SSL/TLS Certificates Ready

Field	Value

Blocker: All production traffic must be encrypted via HTTPS.

Required action:

Add reverse proxy service (nginx or Traefik) to docker-compose.prod.yml
Configure Let's Encrypt auto-renewal (certbot or Traefik ACME)
Enforce HTTPS redirect (HTTP → HTTPS)
Configure HSTS headers
Verify certificate chain validity

11. DNS Configuration Verified

Field	Value
Status	FAIL
Owner	DevOps Engineer / CTO
Evidence	None — no DNS configuration documented

Findings:

No domain names registered or documented (e.g., goodgo.vn, api.goodgo.vn)
No DNS zone files or configuration in infra/
No documentation for DNS provider setup
Deployment doc does not reference DNS configuration

Blocker: Production requires domain names with proper DNS records.
