At Camunda, we have always pushed ourselves to innovate in the field of Process Automation. From our early days as a lightweight Java project, we’ve relentlessly innovated — engineering an end-to-end Process Automation tech stack that has helped organizations across the globe automate mission-critical processes. But innovation never stops and organizations continue to look for new ways to increase the velocity of business transformation. To address this need, more and more organizations are turning to the cloud, which is increasingly becoming a business transformation accelerator.  That being said, as enterprise applications are being built entirely in the cloud, organizations are struggling with automating processes across multiple systems, people, and devices in an end-to-end manner. These processes often include modern components...

We’re excited to announce Camunda Platform 7.15, the latest release of our process automation solution. This release is packed with new features that boost productivity for professional software developers and low-code developers who are building end-to-end process automation. We’re rolling out reusable process components, more out-of-the-box RPA bot support, multi-metric reports for your processes, new DMN collaboration features, and much more. Read on to learn about a few select features. Share a catalog of reusable workers and RPA bots in your team To connect Camunda to a back-end system or another endpoint, you can build a custom integration, which we call a “worker.” Building a worker is usually a task for a professional software developer; but once a worker is...

If you’re looking to selectively automate the work of individual components in legacy systems, and help automate processes without a significant time investment — RPA should be on your radar.  Global companies like Deutsche Telekom have already introduced and automated 2,500 individual bots, resulting in savings of more than 100 million Euros. However, relying too heavily on RPA can land you in hot water. Paul Jones, Business Automation Services at NatWest even classifies RPA as technical debt.  So what can you do to avoid this debt? Prevention is the best cure and before jumping on the RPA bandwagon, think carefully about whether you need an RPA solution, or a workflow engine. Losing control of long-running processes The ability to automate...

At CamundaCon Live today, I was thrilled to unveil the next step on the Camunda Cloud roadmap – the Camunda Cloud Early Access Program. Now your team can get started on Camunda Cloud, running your clusters with more resources, a higher replication factor and a higher partition count.

Tl;dr the Camunda Cloud beta is now open to everyone! You can sign up here. Last September at CamundaCon Berlin, we unveiled Camunda Cloud: a scalable, on-demand workflow platform. Camunda Cloud is the first BPMN-based workflow technology that’s been engineered specifically for the cloud and offered as an on-demand cloud service. It was a major milestone for our company.

I am very happy to announce that Mary Thengvall is joining Camunda as our new Director of Developer Relations.

Note: The specific performance metrics in this blog post are from an earlier release of Zeebe. Since this post was published, work has been done to stabilise Zeebe clusters, and this has changed the performance envelope. You can follow the steps in this blog post to test the current release of Zeebe yourself, and derive the current performance envelope. Zeebe advertises itself as being a “horizontally-scalable workflow engine”. In this post, we cover what that means and how to measure it.
