Hi We are currently running on .NET 7 and also have .NET 6 installed as part of the individual component and would like to upgrade to .NET 8, but we make use of Service Fabric runtime 9.0.1107.9590 and I saw on the official documentation( https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/service-fabric/service-fabric-versions#supported-windows-versions-and-support-end-date ) the latest Service Fabric runtime support up to .NET 7. I also noticed that the documentation was last updated in April 2023 before .NET 8 release. Therefore I would like to know if Service Fabric is supported on .NET 8 and can still be functional on .NET 8 as is on .NET 7.

Hello, @Lethabo Moses Monama (ZA) ! Is Service Fabric supported on .NET 8 runtime? I reached out to the Service Fabric team and confirmed that the documentation is currently up to date. There is no current version of the Service Fabric runtime that supports the .NET 8 runtime. I hope this has been helpful! Your feedback is important so please take a moment to accept answers . If you still have questions, please let us know what is needed in the comments so the question can be answered. Thank you for helping to improve Microsoft Q&A!

@kobulloc-MSFT Thank you for your reply on this. Whilst it helps to know that it's not currently supported, what is rather unhelpful is the Service Fabric Teams lack of update on when will .NET 8 be supported? .NET 7 is EOL on 14th May 2024. Will Service Fabric support .NET 8 before this date? Or is the expectation that organisations will be required to downgrade their applications to .NET 6? Even still, .NET 6 is EOL in Novemember 2024. It would be really helpful for the community if it can be identified the roadmap for .NET 8 support on Service Fabric, please.
