Can we do a blue-green upgrade of Edge and Developer Portal on priavte cloud?

Not applicable

We are in development phase and will be using Edge and Developer Portal. Apigee provides quarterly releases.

We are moving ahead with 13 node edge installation on private cloud and upgrading can be tedious. Does Apigee supports blue-green deployment? If YES, is there some documentation of the process to be followed.

It depends on your definition of blue-green and the scope of it.

Every Edge installation contains user and system generated data in the form of UUIDs and other values associated to API Keys, Oauth tokens, etc.

In order to switch traffic from Edge installation A to Edge installation B, you will need to move that generated data. It is possible, but it can represent a lot of work.

I recommend exploring the possibility using multiple Edge Environments assuming instead and validating if that fits your needs.
