How do I run Traffic splitting jobs on self-hosted runners with Azure Pipelines?

Running traffic-splitting jobs on self-hosted runners with Azure Pipelines can optimize your deployment process by routing a certain percentage of traffic to different versions of your application. This allows you to test new features or bug fixes in real-time without affecting your entire user base.

To set up traffic splitting in Azure Pipelines on self-hosted runners, you can define your pipeline configuration in your YAML file. Below is an example of how to implement this:

jobs: - job: TrafficSplit pool: name: 'SelfHostedPool' steps: - script: echo "Deploying version A" displayName: 'Deploy Version A' condition: and(succeeded(), eq(variables['SplitTraffic'], 'A')) - script: echo "Deploying version B" displayName: 'Deploy Version B' condition: and(succeeded(), eq(variables['SplitTraffic'], 'B')) variables: SplitTraffic: $[ if(eq(variables['Build.SourceBranch'], 'refs/heads/main'), 'A', 'B') ]
