• “PROD” = Production. This is the live data system.

for trainings and demos. Does not contain real data.
• Updates on Prod and Demo occur every second
Thursday at 4:30.
– Some diseases have not yet gone “live” and others are still
making changes (including reporting changes required by
CDC)
• Requested changes can take weeks to move from help
desk ticket to update in Prod.
– We need time for development and testing.
