Migrating Camunda to the latest version

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions
1

Hi All,

I’m started migrating my Camunda application from 7.12.0 to 7.20.0-alpha3.

Current Version:
Java: 1.8
Spring-Boot: (v2.3.12.RELEASE)
Camunda BPM: (v7.12.0)
Camunda BPM Spring Boot Starter: (v3.4.1)
Maven Dependency Camunda Platform Spring Boot Starter: Maven Repository: org.camunda.bpm.springboot » camunda-bpm-spring-boot-starter » 3.4.1 (mvnrepository.com)

Upgrade Version:
Java: 17
Spring-Boot: (v3.1.0)
Camunda Platform: (v7.20.0-alpha3)
Camunda Platform Spring Boot Starter: (v7.20.0-alpha3)
Maven Dependency Camunda Platform Spring Boot Starter: Maven Repository: org.camunda.bpm.springboot » camunda-bpm-spring-boot-starter » 7.20.0-alpha3 (mvnrepository.com)

Clarifications:

  1. I want to know what are database scripts are made inbetween these releases. So that I can migrate my entire application without any flaws. So where can I get the changeset of the database changes?
  2. Is that safe to use 7.20.0-alpha3 dependency in production?

Can you please help me on this?

Hello my friend! Welcome again! \o/

  • As this is an “alpha” version, I wouldn’t recommend using it in production environments.

  • Regarding the migration from 7.12 to later versions, I suggest you check the documentation on Camunda’s own website. It contains information about the changes between each version and what needs to be adjusted.

You can go on changing version by version in the menu on the side, or even modify it directly in the website’s URL path.

Here’s the link:

I hope this helps.

Hi William,

It was incredibly helpful, thank you very much.
So when can I anticipate the release of maven dependency 7.20.0 for camunda-bpm-spring-boot-starter-webapp?

FYR,

Thanks!

I’m happy to be able to help my friend!

Regarding Camunda / Webapp versions…
I would use the final version 7.19 in production, until the definitive version 7.20 comes out.
