A team must roll out updates on the production instance of an application. To avoid any service down time, the new version must be released alongside the old version. After the team ensures that the new version operates as it should, traffic will be redirected to the new version. Then the old version will be shut down.
Which deployment strategy must be used?
The new version of the application is deployed to one of the environments, and then traffic is gradually shifted to the updated environment. This strategy allows the team to test the new version before releasing it to the public, ensuring that it is operating as expected. After the new version is tested and approved, traffic is fully shifted to the new environment and the old environment is shut down.
