Octopus Deploy 2018 Roadmap

In 2018, Octopus Deploy, led by founder Paul Stovell, aimed to expand its platform with four key themes: launching a cloud-hosted version, broadening its reach beyond the Microsoft ecosystem, evolving into a comprehensive DevOps tool, and enhancing performance, scalability, stability, and user experience. The company planned to introduce a cloud-hosted version of Octopus, starting with a closed alpha and progressing to an open beta by March, focusing on long-term investment and organizational change. Octopus sought to extend its capabilities by supporting non-Microsoft technologies, including AWS, Linux, Python, Ruby, and Kubernetes. Additionally, the goal was to transform Octopus into a versatile DevOps tool capable of managing a variety of processes beyond deployments, such as disaster recovery and compliance checks. To ensure scalability and user satisfaction, Octopus intended to implement features like "Spaces" for isolating projects and "Workers" for running scripts externally, alongside efforts to improve performance and address user feedback through UserVoice suggestions.
