Blue/green usually involves moving traffic from blue <-> green gradually. You usually do this with a load balancer. That is all.

- outworlder 4y agoUsually, yes. But now some[one|thing] will have to do the monitoring and gradually ramp up traffic, rollback, etc. It's perfectly ok to immediately flip the entire traffic if you are a one man shop and your customers will tolerate it.
- abrookewood 4y agoI've never heard that the gradual moving of traffic was a requirement for B-G deployment (though it is helpful), just that you 'flip a switch' between one running server and another one.
