# Vault Operations
|
|
|
|
Vault Operations guides address Vault infrastructure discussions. These
|
|
guides are designed to help the operations team to plan and install a Vault
|
|
cluster that meets your organization's needs.
|
|
|
|
- [Production Hardening](/guides/operations/production.html) guide provides
|
|
guidance on best practices for a production hardened deployment of Vault.
|
|
The recommendations are based on the [security model](/docs/internals/security.html)
|
|
and focus on defense in depth.
|
|
- [Replication Setup & Guidance](/guides/operations/replication.html)
|
|
walks you through the commands to activate the Vault servers in replication mode.
|
|
Please note that [Vault Replication](/docs/vault-enterprise/replication/index.html)
|
|
is a Vault Enterprise feature.
|
|
- [Root Token Generation](/guides/operations/generate-root.html) guide
|
|
demonstrates the workflow of regenerating root tokens. It is considered to be a
|
|
best practice not to persist the initial **root** token. If a root token needs
|
|
to be regenerated, this guide helps you walk through the task.
|
|
- [Rekeying & Rotating](/guides/operations/rekeying-and-rotating.html) guide
|
|
provides a high-level overview of Shamir's Secret Sharing Algorithm, and how to
|
|
perform _rekey_ and _rotate_ operations in Vault.
|
|
- [Building Plugin Backends](/guides/operations/plugin-backends.html) guide
|
|
provides steps to build, register, and mount non-database external plugin
|
|
backends.
