Abstract

A system may include an active first point of deployment (POD) configured to provide a specified business functionality and may include a first server and a first instance of a platform to provide the specified business function. A dark second POD may be configured to include a second server and a second instance of the platform template, where the first platform template instance comprises a different version than the second platform template instance. A POD management computing device may test an operation of the second POD in parallel with the operation of the first POD. The POD management computing device may upgrade the business functionality by deactivating the first POD and activating the second POD to provide the specified business function using the second instance of the platform template.
