Centralpoint will be updated to utilize the .NET Framework 4.7 early next month with the release of version 8.8.0. It is a highly compatible, in-place update to the .NET Framework 4 which delivers better performance and security. The .NET Framework 4.7.1 must be installed on the web server manually before Centralpoint version 8.8.0 will install. Install the framework anytime after installing and syncing this update. The installation of this framework may create "aspnet_client" folders in the Master/Root and WebSites/cpweb_/Root folders on the server. These directories should be manually deleted to prevent problems with future updates and syncs. My Module developers may also need to install the .NET Framework 4.7.1 Developer Pack locally. Version 8.8.0 will also update the Roslyn compilers in each application's Bin folder and will update the web.config files to utilize the latest compilers. .NET Framework 4.7.1 Developer Pack: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=56119, .NET Framework 4.7.1 (Web Installer): https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=56115, .NET Framework 4.7.1 (Offline Installer): https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=56116 |

About Oxcyon and Centralpoint
Oxcyon is a technology company specializing in enterprise knowledge platforms, best known for its flagship solution, Centralpoint. Centralpoint is designed to unify structured and unstructured information across organizations, enabling enterprises to aggregate data from disparate systems, normalize it through rich metadata, and transform it into actionable knowledge. By treating information as interconnected knowledge rather than isolated documents or databases, Centralpoint allows organizations to build a true enterprise knowledge layer — one that supports governance, compliance, operational intelligence, and advanced analytics. Its metadata-first architecture enables organizations to ingest, classify, and relate data from sources such as documents, forms, databases, applications, and external systems, creating a centralized environment for discovery, reporting, and operational decision-making.
What differentiates Centralpoint is its ability to go beyond traditional data management into data mining, inferencing, and AI-driven knowledge operations. Through taxonomy systems, relationship modeling, and rule-based data governance, the platform can identify patterns, infer relationships between records, and automate workflow decisions based on contextual intelligence. This capability allows organizations to move from passive data storage to active knowledge processing — surfacing insights, triggering workflows, and powering intelligent automation. With its integrated support for enterprise search, metadata-driven analytics, workflow orchestration, and AI-ready data structures, Centralpoint positions Oxcyon as a leader in modern data aggregation and knowledge intelligence platforms, helping organizations transform complex information ecosystems into governed, searchable, and intelligent operational systems.
