A cloud administrator needs to distribute workloads across remote data centers for redundancy reasons.

Blue-green deployment is the strategy that can eliminate downtime, accelerate deployment, and remain cost-efficient. It involves running two identical production environments, only one of which is live at any given time (blue or green). When it's time to deploy, the new version is released to the inactive environment (green), which is then thoroughly tested. Once ready, the traffic is switched over, making the green environment live.References: Deployment strategies and their impact on operations are a significant topic within the CompTIA Cloud+ examination objectives.
