System and method for switching traffic routes between an application and an updated application

A method comprising:

• receiving, by a first global traffic management (GTM) server, a first traffic from a first communication equipment to access a first version of an application, wherein the first version of the application runs in a first virtual machine of a first webserver;
• receiving, by a second GTM server, a second traffic from a second communication equipment to evaluate a second version of the application for deployment, wherein the second version of the application is stored in a second virtual machine of the first webserver;
• routing, by the first GTM server, the first traffic associated with the first communication equipment to the first virtual machine of the first webserver to access the first version of the application;
• routing, by the second GTM server, the second traffic to the second virtual machine of the first webserver, wherein the second virtual machine is configured to evaluate the second version of the application for a deployment;
• receiving, by the first GTM server, a notification from the first webserver, the notification indicating that the second version of the application passes an evaluation with the deployment on the second virtual machine;
• routing, by the first GTM server, the first traffic associated with the first communication equipment to the second virtual machine of the first webserver to access the second version of the application;
• and
• routing, by the second GTM server, the second traffic to the first virtual machine of the first webserver.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that when executed by one or more processor causes the one or more processors to:

• receive a first traffic from a first communication equipment to access a first version of an application, wherein the first version of the application runs in a first virtual machine of a first webserver;
• receive a second traffic from a second communication equipment to evaluate a second version of the application for deployment, wherein the second version of the application is stored in a second virtual machine of the first webserver;
• route the first traffic to the first virtual machine of the first webserver to access the first version of the application;
• route the second traffic to the second virtual machine of the first webserver, wherein the second virtual machine is configured to evaluate the second version of the application for a deployment;
• receive a notification from the first webserver, the notification indicating that the second version of the application passes an evaluation with the deployment on the second virtual machine;
• route the first traffic to the second virtual machine of the first webserver to access the second version of the application;
• and
• route the second traffic to the first virtual machine of the first webserver,
• wherein the notification is configured to simultaneously trigger a first global traffic management (GTM) server to route the first traffic to the second virtual machine and trigger a second GTM server to route the second traffic to the first virtual machine.
