The easiest way to have no-downtime upgrades is have an architecture that can tolerate some subset of their processes to be down at any time. De-SPOF and this gets easier (not that de-SPOFing is always trivial).

Zero-downtime Redis upgrade discussion. GitHub have a short window of scheduled downtime in order to upgrade their Redis server. I asked in their comments if they’d considered trying to run the upgrade with no downtime at all using Redis replication, and Ryan Tomayko has posted some interesting replies. # 28th May 2010, 2:50 pm
