Choose the Best Release Strategy for Quick Deployment and Rollback

You are a DevOps engineer at MDFT Academy, a well-known training agency. You are currently defining a release strategy for a training application, named TrainingPortal.

The strategy should allow you to keep the time it takes to deploy new releases of the app to a minimum. The strategy should also allow you to roll back in the shortest time required.

Which of the following is the release strategy you should use?

Choose the correct answer from the options below.

Explanations for each answer:

Blue/Green deployment is correct.
Rolling deployment is incorrect. Rolling deployment gradually replaces instances of the previous version with the new version, which takes more time for both deployment and rollback compared to Blue/Green deployment.
Big Bang deployment is incorrect. Big Bang deployment replaces the entire application at once, which is risky and makes rollback more time-consuming as you would need to redeploy the previous version entirely.
Canary deployment is incorrect. Canary deployment involves gradually routing users to the new version, testing it with a small subset of users first. This approach takes longer for full deployment compared to Blue/Green deployment.
