It sounds like Blue/Green deployments.

For the curious... An overview of the Blue/Green deployment model:

https://www.redhat.com/en/topics/devops/what-is-blue-green-d...

sorta. but i think that blue/green deployments are typically monitored by some central control that will halt and reverse a whole fleet deployment, where typically embedded devices run that state machine locally. (after flashing the unused partition, if it fails to boot, fail back to the old one and disable the update).
