Future for Orchestrator
Hello I might have missed the news, but has there been any official announcement on Orchestrator part of System Center, regarding it's development? So far I believe the development and bugfixing...
Hey
Thanks for replies
On the other hand, I've watched in the meanwhile Ignite statement, which is confirming my worries:

In short, MS would be releasing a "migration toolkit" which I doubt would cover all Orchestrator solutions (think custom IPs, vmware and other).
In other words, we would need to seemingly move some workloads to Microsoft Flow (which is a great automation product otherwise) or Azure Automation. Unfortunately this adds a lot of complexity when building workflows, and SCOM->Orchestrator integration is good example.
It is a total scandal that Microsoft have ignored the Orchestrator 32bit part for years. With all the workarounds you have to do to make ORCH Powershell activities 64bit Powershell 5. It is a great mystery why they haven't fixed it.
