docs Update Strategies - Operating a Job docs-operating-a-job-updating This section describes common patterns for updating already-running jobs including rolling upgrades, blue/green deployments, and canary builds. Nomad provides built-in support for this functionality.

Update Strategies

Most applications are long-lived and require updates over time. Whether you are deploying a new version of your web application or upgrading to a new version of redis, Nomad has built-in support for rolling updates.
