How to Build Docker Images for Camunda 8 from Internal Artifactory Files and Deploy to GKE?

Camunda 8 Topics Discussion & Questions

Hi all,

Our company plans to use Camunda 8 in an application and deploy it to GCP (Google Kubernetes Engine). However, we have the following restrictions:

  1. Docker images must be pulled from our internal artifactory (external images are not allowed).

  2. We can only use files available in our internal artifactory. We found the same .zip and .tar.gz files listed here(Release 8.6.5 · camunda/camunda · GitHub) in our artifactory.

  3. The .zip and .tar.gz files include components like Zeebe, Operate, and Tasklist but do not include the Identity component.

I need help with:

  1. Building Docker images for Camunda 8 components from the .zip and .tar.gz files available in our internal artifactory.

  2. Modifying the official Camunda Helm charts to work without the Identity component, as it is not available in our artifactory.

If anyone has experience building and deploying Camunda 8 from such sources or using it without Identity, I’d greatly appreciate your guidance or examples!

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Prem913, welcome to the forums! This type of deployment requires an enterprise license, which comes with support from our consulting and support teams. I would recommend reaching out to them to help with this.

In the meantime, you can disable Identity entirely in the Helm charts by setting global.identity.auth.enabled and identity.enabled to false, and this readme should be helpful too:
