      We are looking into implementing Blue/Green deployment using Buildmaster.

      Our current idea is to create two environments and mark each one as either blue or green. After deployment, we would then switch blue and green marks.

      We would like to use variables to mark the environments and change these variables from within our workflows.

      My question(s):

      • has anyone experience with creating blue/green deployment plans with Buildmaster?
      • how can we change and persist variables from within a deployment plan?

      Thanks for any feedback!

      Product: BuildMaster
      Version: 4.9.7

        One common way to do this in BuildMaster v4 is to use two pipelines; a "blue" and a "green" pipeline.

        Another thing is to have a "Blue" and a "Green" environment, and then a pipeline like:

        Int > Test > Blue > Green

        Then, basically skip Blue or Green depending on the workflow.

        You can also have operation groups / action groups with predicates like "if $BlueGreen = Blue".

        You can certainly use the Set-Release operation (or ACtion in v4) to set configuration variables on a release.
