Rolling take-over
; sawp out one node at a time
- pros seamless migration of node replacement
- cons no rollback
- depending on LB config can produce end-user hiccups (RR vs load)
Full takeover
- aka LB swap-out ; Using DNS to swap HA/LB
- pro quickly sawp from cluster a to cluster b - ie usage schema change or braking change
- con DNS ttl lag time to changeover
Populate to replace
; add nodes until the LB starts using them then kill old nodes.
