# Enable and start
sudo systemctl enable turkiye-api
sudo systemctl start turkiye-api
sudo systemctl status turkiye-api
```

---

## 🔍 Verification Steps

### 1. Health Check

```bash
# Basic health check
curl http://localhost:8181/health

# With authentication (if enabled)
curl -u admin:your-password http://localhost:8181/health

# Expected (production):
# {"status":"ok","timestamp":"..."}
```

### 2. Security Headers

```bash
curl -I http://localhost:8181/api/v1/provinces

# Verify headers present:
# X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
# X-Frame-Options: DENY
# Content-Security-Policy: ...
# etc.
```

### 3. Redis Connection

```bash
# Check Redis
redis-cli ping
# Expected: PONG

# Monitor cache operations
redis-cli monitor
```

### 4. API Functionality

```bash
# Test endpoints
curl http://localhost:8181/api/v1/provinces
curl http://localhost:8181/api/v1/districts
curl http://localhost:8181/api/v1/provinces/34

# Test with filters
curl "http://localhost:8181/api/v1/provinces?minPopulation=1000000"

# Test rate limiting
for i in {1..105}; do curl http://localhost:8181/api/v1/provinces; done
# Should get 429 after 100 requests
```

### 5. Metrics

```bash
# Check Prometheus metrics
curl http://localhost:8181/metrics

# Verify metrics present
```

## 📊 Performance Benchmarks

### Expected Performance (with Redis)

| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| **Response Time (cached)** | < 5ms |
| **Response Time (uncached)** | 50-200ms |
| **Cache Hit Rate** | 60-80% |
| **Requests per Second** | 1000+ (4 workers) |
| **Memory per Worker** | 50-100MB |
| **Redis Memory** | 10-50MB |

### Load Testing

```bash
# Install hey
go install github.com/rakyll/hey@latest

# Test API performance
hey -n 1000 -c 10 http://localhost:8181/api/v1/provinces

# Expected results:
# - 99% requests < 50ms
# - 0% errors
# - High throughput
```

---

## 🚨 Troubleshooting

### Issue: Port 8181 Already in Use

```bash
# Find process
sudo lsof -i :8181
# or on Windows
netstat -ano | findstr :8181

# Kill process
kill -9 <PID>
```

### Issue: Redis Connection Failed

```bash
# Check Redis is running
redis-cli ping

# Check Redis URL in .env
echo $REDIS_URL

# Test connection
redis-cli -u $REDIS_URL ping
```

### Issue: Health Check Fails

```bash
# Check logs
docker-compose logs api
# or
journalctl -u turkiye-api -f

# Check application is running
ps aux | grep gunicorn
```

### Issue: High Memory Usage

```bash
# Reduce workers
# In .env: WORKERS=2

# Restart service
docker-compose restart api
```

---

## 📈 Monitoring Setup

### Prometheus Configuration

**File**: `prometheus.yml`

```yaml
scrape_configs:
  - job_name: 'turkiye-api'
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['localhost:8181']
    metrics_path: '/metrics'
    scrape_interval: 15s
```

### Grafana Dashboards

1. Import FastAPI dashboard (ID: 15752)
2. Configure Prometheus data source
3. Set up alerts for:
   - High error rate (> 1%)
   - Slow response time (> 500ms)
   - High memory usage (> 80%)

### Log Aggregation

```bash
# With Docker
docker-compose logs -f --tail=100 api

# With systemd
journalctl -u turkiye-api -f

# Send logs to external service
# Configure in .env: LOG_DESTINATION=...
```

### Rolling Update (Docker)

```bash
# Pull latest code
git pull origin main

# Rebuild image
