```

## 🚀 Deployment Steps

### 1. Database Setup
```bash
# Run migrations
php artisan migrate --force

# Verify tables exist
php artisan tinker --execute="echo 'Tables: '; DB::select('SHOW TABLES LIKE \"trademark_%\"');"
```

### 2. Storage Setup
```bash
# Create storage link
php artisan storage:link

# Set permissions
chmod -R 755 storage/app/public
chmod -R 755 storage/app/public/temp
```

### 3. Configuration
```bash
# Clear caches
php artisan config:clear
php artisan view:clear
php artisan route:clear

# Cache for production
php artisan config:cache
php artisan view:cache
php artisan route:cache
```

### 4. Health Check
```bash
# Test health endpoint
curl http://your-domain.com/image-similarity/health
```

## 📊 Performance Monitoring

### Key Metrics to Monitor:
- **Upload Success Rate**: Should be >95%
- **Processing Time**: Average <30 seconds per image
- **Memory Usage**: Should not exceed 512MB
- **Error Rate**: Should be <5%
- **Storage Usage**: Monitor temp directory size

### Health Check Endpoints:
- **Service Health**: `GET /image-similarity/health`
- **Database Status**: Included in health check
- **Storage Status**: Included in health check
- **AI Service Status**: Included in health check

## 🔒 Security Considerations

### File Upload Security:
- ✅ MIME type validation
- ✅ File extension validation
- ✅ File size limits
- ✅ Secure file naming
- ✅ Temporary file cleanup

### Rate Limiting:
- ✅ 10 requests per minute per user
- ✅ IP-based rate limiting
- ✅ Graceful rate limit responses

### Data Protection:
- ✅ No permanent storage of uploaded images
- ✅ Automatic cleanup of temporary files
- ✅ Secure file paths
- ✅ User activity logging

## 🐛 Troubleshooting

### Common Issues:

1. **"File too large" error**
   - Check `AI_IMAGE_MAX_SIZE` in .env
   - Verify PHP upload limits

2. **"Storage not writable" error**
   - Check storage permissions
   - Verify disk configuration

3. **"AI service unavailable" error**
   - Check Google Cloud credentials
   - Verify fallback service is working

4. **"Database connection failed" error**
   - Check database configuration
   - Verify database server is running

### Debug Commands:
```bash
# Check service health
php artisan tinker --execute="app(App\Http\Controllers\ImageSimilarityController::class)->healthCheck()"

# Test file upload
php artisan tinker --execute="echo 'Testing file validation...'; Validator::make(['image' => 'test.jpg'], ['image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif|max:10240']);"

# Check database tables
php artisan tinker --execute="DB::select('SHOW TABLES LIKE \"trademark_%\"');"
```
