* Reduce the complexity of release deployments and minimize the duration of deployment rollbacks
* Test real production traffic with a gradual increase in the number of affected users You want to select a deployment and testing strategy that meets your requirements What should you do?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

The best option for selecting a deployment and testing strategy that meets your requirements is to use blue
/green deployment and canary testing. A blue/green deployment is a deployment strategy that involves creating two identical environments, one running the current version of the application (blue) and one running the new version of the application (green). The traffic is switched from blue to green after testing the new version, and if any issues are discovered, the traffic can be switched back to blue instantly. This way, you can reduce the complexity of release deployments and minimize the duration of deployment rollbacks. A canary testing is a testing strategy that involves releasing a new version of an application to a subset of users or servers and monitoring its performance and reliability. This way, you can test real production traffic with a gradual increase in the number of affected users.
