A tiny utility VM is upgraded on the same instance during a maintenance window with brief downtime accepted. Which deployment strategy fits this approach?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
In-place is fixing the car you already own in the driveway — same box, new bits, short downtime okay. A single utility VM during a maintenance window is classic in-place. You are not spinning a twin garage (blue-green) or trickle-testing a tiny traffic slice.
Full Explanation
In-place deployment updates software on the existing instance or environment rather than standing up a parallel stack. Brief accepted downtime during a maintenance window is a common trade-off for small, non-critical systems. Blue-green and canary assume alternate environments or partial traffic routing; rolling across many nodes does not apply when only one instance exists.
