Easier Deployments using a Green:Blue Strategy
summary
Shows a working proof‑of‑concept that uses an Azure DevOps pipeline to deploy a web app into App Service deployment slots, ramp traffic 10%→50%→100% and then swap slots, with successful rollouts and instant rollback capability; uses API Management policy (or Front Door/Traffic Manager/Application Gateway) for routing, Azure CLI/Azure CRI tasks for automation, and warns to keep databases replica‑compatible. The demo builds artifacts, deploys to staging, collects metrics during progressive rollout, and completes the swap without breaking production.
