+## Description
+This demo will cover the importance of having a deployment strategy and show how 
+blue green deployment can be achieved on the web hosting platform Vercel (https://vercel.com/).
+The demo will entail showing some basic website (Blue environment) and making a small change 
+to the site (Green environment) during the demo. The new deployment/website will be configured on stage to direct some of 
+the traffic to the domain to go to the Blue environment and some to the Green environment with no downtime.
+
+**Relevance**
+Blue-Green Deployment is relevant to DevOps because it provides a strategy for seamless
+releases with minimal downtime. This is a core objective of DevOps practices. When having
+two separate environments, a "Blue" one for the current version and a "Green" one for the
+new version, it allows teams to deploy new code with safety. Developers can also test the
+code in production and switch traffic between environments with minimal risk. This strategy
+reduces the impact of failures and enables quick rollbacks. It also promotes continuous 
+delivery and deployment, which improves factors such as speed and reliability of software releases.
