Request your help on how to use Camunda on Mac OS Ventura

Hi Team,

I am new to Camunda and I have downloaded the below tools to use of Camunda .

1.Camunda Modeler
2. Java
3.Eclipse
4.Postman
5.Maven

Please help me understand what other tools do I need to install to make use of Camunda on my Mac OS. In one of the YouTube videos, I noticed tutor tried to install BPMN engine and tomcat server as well.

Also, When I tried to run localhost:8080 on my Mac OS, I was getting the While label browser error. I am unable to resolve the issue.

Please advise.

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards,
Eshwar Sai KS

Hi @eshwar, welcome to the forums! It depends on what you want to do? Camunda 7, our previous version which is reaching EOL in the near future, is the one that can run on Tomcat (this is the same version kriperflag mentioned in their reply).

Camunda 8, our current platform, is both a SaaS and Self Managed product. You can sign up for a free SaaS trial from our homepage. If you want to get Camunda 8 running locally for development and testing, it depends on how you’d like to run it: we have a Docker Compose configuration available, as well as several guides (for example, here and here) for using Kubernetes locally. (Note that Camunda 8 requires a license for production usage.)

It all depends on what product you want to use, and how you want to run it.

Thanks a lot for the response @nathan.loding. I really appreciate your time. I was just asked to explore Camunda. I am trying to figure out on what business cases It can help in our organisation.

Could you please help me share with some business cases/business requirements for my understanding on how Camunda helps in business?

Currently, I have understood some basic sample use cases/examples in the articles such as it can be used in Service IT management, Customer purchase order process, Employee onboarding and so on… But I want to understand the business requirement.

I am Senior RPA UiPath Developer and I want to understand how it helps RPA UiPath bots as well.

Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @eshwar - this is an extremely broad question. Camunda is a universal process orchestration platform, and can execute any process you can design with BPMN. Generally speaking, process orchestration works best for frequent, complex, or long-running processes.

I would suggest starting with this process orchestration guide, and perhaps also this blog about automation vs orchestration. We also have a long list of case-studies you can review.

Regarding UiPath, you can check out our newly release UiPath Process Blueprint. We have a lot of blog posts about RPA, and this one in particular might be of interest to you: RPA + BPMN = True End-to-End Business Process Orchestration | Camunda
