Blue Green Release
Definitions
Blue Green Release is a GitOps term for a release strategy that switches between two complete environments. It helps teams, humans, and agents compare declared source state with running systems, then act without pretending a deployment did more than the evidence shows. Source context: Argo CD documentation.
“The team used Blue Green Release before lunch, so the release did not sprint into production wearing untied shoes.”
