About this tag
The .net 10 tag covers guidance on moving Azure Functions from the in-process hosting model to the .NET 10 isolated worker model. Current discussion focuses on Microsoft’s November 10, 2026, deadline for in-process support and the related end of .NET 8 support. It compares .NET 10 isolated worker with .NET 8 isolated worker as a lower-change bridge for applications constrained by dependencies, release timing, or hosting requirements. The coverage also considers the longer support horizon: .NET 10 is scheduled to remain supported through November 14, 2028. This tag is useful for teams planning Azure Functions framework upgrades and evaluating migration timing, compatibility, and support-life implications.
