Because we didn’t define any deployment targets for the target environment, Octopus ran the script directly on the Octopus Server. If you are on Octopus Cloud, Octopus Deploy leased a dynamic worker (a machine that executes tasks on behalf of the Octopus Server) that was then used to execute the hello world script.
The next step will cover how to configure and use variables in runbooks.
