There are a number of ways to handle upgrade/rollback and switch between active and passive modes:

  • The most straightforward way is to have the PAP do all the heavy lifting, downloading the upgraded/rolled back policy sets to the PDP groups as upgrades/rollbacks happen. This is probably the best option for Casablanca
  • An enhancement of the bullet above is to have a "standby" PDP group as a K8s service in parallel with the active one, and we simply switch between active and standby services to do upgrade/rollback
  • A third way is to have two policy sets running in each PDP, an active set and a standby set
