Canary Deployment

Canary Cookie

Canary deployment of Kubernetes components allows two versions of a component to be installed and run side by side in a Kubernetes cluster. By default, all user requests are forwarded to the "current" version. If a newer version of the component than Canary has been deployed, a selected group of users can be forwarded to this "new" version. For the PEP tests, the Canary cookie must be set to be redirected to the Canary version. The Canary cookie can be set and deactivated on the following page by setting the Canary cookie to "always" or deleting it "none".
