Systems and methods of context-mapped container deployment for controlled application updates

A system comprising:

• a server including a processor, wherein the server is communicatively coupled to a storage device to:
• determine, at an operator executed on the server, whether to perform an update of the application;
• perform, at the operator, an update precheck in response to determining that the update to the application is to be performed by:
• determining whether a database migration is to be performed as part of the update to the application;
• and
• receiving, from the application at the operator, an update mode and an update type of the update precheck to determine the update to the application, wherein the update type determines whether the application is configured to be updated while the application is being executed;
• and
• provide, from the operator to the application via an application program interface (API), one or more application shutdown configuration parameters for the update based on the received update mode and update type of the update precheck, wherein the one or more application shutdown configuration parameters includes a parameter which stops jobs of the application at defined interrupt points such that the jobs continue later after the update;
• and
• deploy, at the operator, the update to the application based on the received update mode and update type.
