Summary
Blue/green deployment is a method of gradually transferring user traffic from a previous version of an application or microservice to a nearly identical new release, both of which are running in production. This approach ensures two identical production environments, with one of them, such as blue, being live at any given time. The new release is tested in the green environment before it is deployed to the blue environment.
