The document discusses blue-green deployment, a technique that minimizes downtime and risk by utilizing two identical production environments. Only one environment serves traffic at any time, with the other idle, which allows for seamless updates and testing. The author, dj schleen, shares resources and personal opinions, emphasizing the benefits of this method in production and testing workflows.

Definition
Blue-green deployment is a technique that reduces
downtime and risk by running two identical production
environments called Blue and Green. At any time, only one
of the environments is live, with the live environment serving
all production traffic. For this example, Blue is currently live
and Green is idle.
