Stop 1 of 5 · Two lanes on the bridge

Trick to keep in mind+3 XP

Blue-green: two lanes, one traffic cone. Moving the cone back is the undo.

In blue-green the old version stays up beside the new one, and a router or selector decides which receives traffic. Because blue is still running, rolling back means flipping the switch to it again, with no rebuild. The cost is running two full environments while the release is in progress.

Read it once, then a question tests whether the trick stuck.
