Abstract: Disclosed herein includes a system, a method, and a device for providing persistence across applications using a content switching server. A device can receive a first request from a client for a version of an application having different versions provided by one or more servers. The device can provide access to each version of the application via different load balancing virtual servers. A content switching virtual server of the device can select a load balancing virtual server to handle the first request for the version of the application. The content switching virtual server can generate a session identifier for a session between the client and the version of the application to persist the session with the selected load balancing virtual server for subsequent requests from the client for the version of the application.

Abstract: Methods and systems for performing application deployments in a computing environment are presented herein. One or more components of the computing environment may perform a canary deployment of an updated version of an application. As the canary deployment is performed, one or more determinations as to whether to continue, stop, or complete the canary deployment may be performed. These determinations may be based on one or more metrics determined by an application delivery controller of the computing environment. The application delivery controller may be configured to divert or forward traffic to application resources that execute the updated version. Additionally, the canary deployment may be performed in an automated fashion.
