# Going Production

## How it works

We deploy a dedicated CVM with a confined OAuth 2 Service for production.

As expected of Humanode CVM, neither we nor you will be able to log in to the VM shell. Only the publicly exposed APIs will be available.

## What to expect

The CVM will have a limited lifespan, up to roughly half a year. When the lifetime expires we will drop the CVM (including all the data) and deploy a new one for you. There is no way to export the data from the old OAuth 2 Service CVM and upload them into the new one - by design.

Each new CVM will have a new randomly generated Client ID. Any internal user identities are also lost and will be assigned anew when the user authenticates with the new CVM.
