Abstract

Policy-driven management of application traffic is provided for services to cloud-based applications. A steering policy refers to a set of rules is generated for a deployment from a current code environment to one or more replicated code environment differing in some key respect. The steering policy can guide steering decisions between the current and updated code environments. A steering server uses the steering policy to make decisions about whether to send service requests to the current code environment or the updated code environment. Feedback concerning actual steering decisions made by the steering server is received (e.g., performance metrics). The steering policy is automatically adjusted in response to the feedback.
