Best for

  • Zero-downtime releases of web applications and microservices
  • Database-aware deployment strategies with schema migration coordination
  • Kubernetes blue-green deployments with automated traffic switching
  • AWS ALB/NLB target group swapping for instant rollbacks
  • Multi-region deployment patterns with DNS-based failover

What you'll get

  • Detailed infrastructure diagram showing dual environments, load balancer configuration, database replication setup, and traffic routing mechanisms
  • Step-by-step deployment procedure with health check gates, rollback triggers, and database migration coordination timelines
  • Production-ready code templates for Kubernetes manifests, Terraform modules, and CI/CD pipeline configurations with blue-green automation
Not designed for ↓
  • ×Traditional database-only deployments without web services
  • ×Simple CI/CD pipeline setup without zero-downtime requirements
  • ×Static site deployments that don't need traffic routing
  • ×Development environment setup or testing infrastructure
Expects

Architecture details including application stack, database dependencies, current deployment process, traffic patterns, and acceptable downtime tolerance.

Returns

Complete blue-green deployment architecture with infrastructure topology, database migration strategy, health check specifications, rollback procedures, and implementation roadmap.
