Since there have been no dramatic changes between 7.2.1 and 7.4.1, the
transition should be comparatively smooth. Basically, you just need to
upgrade your Store Database (see Release Notes 7.3 and 7.4). You should
be able to develop/deploy your application like you did before, but
obviously the differences between 7.2.1 and 7.4.1 might introduce
incompatibilites, new bugs and/or weird behavior. Read all the release
notes (of 7.3, 7.3.1, 7.3) and fixed ARs and check if the changes affect
your application.
There is also a list of available patches for 7.4.1 and other versions:
