Abstract
Provided are methods and systems for transition between a current cloud-based code environment and an updated cloud-based code environment. A method for transition between a current cloud-based code environment and an updated cloud-based code may commence with generating a steering policy. The steering policy may include a set of rules to guide steering decisions between a current cloud-based code environment and an updated cloud-based code environment. The method may further include sending the steering policy to a steering server. The steering server may make steering decisions to steer, based on the steering policy, service requests between the current cloud-based code environment and the updated cloud-based code environment. The method may continue with receiving feedback concerning actual steering decisions made by the steering server. The method may further include automatically adjusting the steering policy in response to the feedback.
