Find out where to run Camunda 8 components for SaaS and Self-Managed, including Optimize for both Camunda 8 and Camunda 7. |
:::note
The versions listed on this page are the minimum version required if appended with a +.
Pay attention to where the + falls, as most of our dependencies follow semantic versioning (semver), where x.y.z correspond to MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. Higher or more recent versions will be compatible with Camunda, with respect to semver.
For example, 1.2+ means support for the minor version 2, and any higher minors (1.3, 1.4, etc.) and patches (1.2.1, 1.2.2, etc.), but not majors, like 2.x.
:::

:::note Elasticsearch support Camunda 8 works with the default distribution of Elasticsearch, which is available under the Free or Gold+ Elastic license. :::
The core Camunda components have a unified fixed release schedule following the release policy. However, some of the applications have their own schedule. The following compatibility matrix gives an overview of the different versions with respect to the Helm chart versions.
Since the 8.4 release (January 2024), the Camunda Helm chart version is decoupled from the version of the application (e.g., the chart version is 9.0.0 and the application version is 8.4.x).
For more details about the applications version included in the Helm chart, check out the full version matrix.
