Blue/Green Deployment

Use a blue/green deployment to upgrade a DB system or apply infrastructure changes with reduced downtime. A blue/green deployment prepares and validates a green (target) DB system before switching client connections from the blue (source) DB system to the target DB system.

Note

Blue/green deployments are supported for standalone DB systems in the same region. Blue/green deployments are not supported for high availability DB systems, cross-region deployments, DB systems with MySQL REST Service enabled, DB systems with HeatWave cluster attached, or Always Free DB systems.
