Local Portal Operations

Production Track

Operating the downloadable OpeniBank local web portal for self-hosted management of banking, trading, agents, and receipts.

Objective

Provide an operator-grade runbook for the local portal package and clearly separate local capabilities from openibank.com-exclusive services.

Deployment Scope

The local portal is a self-hosted control plane focused on local runtime operations. It includes wallet and ledger visibility, trade controls, node monitoring, and receipt verification.

The package is intentionally local-first. Core workflows do not depend on openibank.com services and remain usable in private-network deployments.

Bootstrap and Runtime

Operators install from source, initialize environment state, and launch the runtime with portal mode enabled. Startup confirms core services and endpoint status.

Recommended production posture includes explicit data directory management, encrypted backup schedule, and periodic restore drills.

Feature Boundary and Upgrade Path

Local portal scope excludes hosted campaign automation and other cloud-exclusive account features. This keeps sovereignty and deterministic local operation as the baseline.

When teams need hosted scale, the same operating model can graduate to hosted node tiers without changing receipt, permit, and commitment semantics.
