Summary

Octopus Deploy's 2021 Q2 release enhances the cloud experience with features like self-service project migration to Octopus Cloud, improved integration with GitHub Actions and HashiCorp's Terraform, and new deployment capabilities for Azure App Service. The release supports better scalability by allowing more concurrent automation tasks and increased storage capacity, while also offering improvements to the Tentacle agent configuration without requiring root permissions. A significant change includes the deprecation of Windows Docker images for Octopus Server and CLI due to low uptake and unsupported OS versions, urging users to switch to Linux Docker images. The release emphasizes Octopus's commitment to facilitating cloud migrations and improving integration with CI/CD tools, with future enhancements outlined in their public roadmap.
