Welcome to another Azure Content Spotlight! These articles are used to highlight items in Azure
that could be more visible to the Azure community.
This week's highlight is about a great feature of
Azure Traffic Manager
:
Weighted traffic-routing
. With Weighted traffic-routing the distribution of traffic across a set of endpoints is done randomly and according to a set of user defined probabilities. There are many use cases for this but the two most notable are Alpha Beta Testing and Blue-Green deployments. Please see the post
Deployment Strategies Defined
for more details on different deployment strategies and the post
Blue-Green deployments using Azure Traffic Manager
for a detailed walk-through.
