Octopus 3.4 blog series kick off

Octopus and Tentacle, initially built against .NET 4.0, are transitioning to .NET 4.5 due to several compelling reasons, despite initial reluctance caused by potential breaking changes and lack of support for Windows Server 2003. With .NET 4.5 released in 2012, most compatibility issues are expected to have been resolved, and Windows Server 2003 has reached its end-of-life, diminishing the need for continued support. The transition to .NET 4.5 facilitates the use of TLS 1.2 for secure communications and access to newer libraries, such as the latest Azure libraries, enhancing the functionality and security of Octopus and Tentacle. As a result, Octopus 3.1 and Tentacle 3.1 will require .NET 4.5, although previous versions remain available for those unable to upgrade.
