Camunda 8.9: Your Fastest Path to Agentic Orchestration
Camunda released version 8.9, positioning its platform as an enterprise‑grade orchestration layer for AI agents, human workers, and legacy systems. The update introduces relational‑database support for secondary storage, global user‑task listeners, a centralized audit log, and native Agent2Agent (A2A) communication. It also adds ad‑hoc sub‑process migration, allowing live process instances to be upgraded without interruption. Together these features aim to accelerate agentic automation while maintaining governance, auditability, and operational continuity.
