New in 2.0: Rolling Deployments

Octopus 2.0 enhances deployment processes by introducing support for rolling deployments, allowing sequential execution of steps across multiple machines, which is particularly beneficial when deploying to a large number of servers. This functionality provides the flexibility to deploy to one machine at a time or in batches, ensuring a more controlled and efficient deployment process. The new feature is implemented through child steps, allowing users to customize their deployment strategy to better suit the needs of their infrastructure.
