<\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/path><\/svg><\/span>What is CIB seven?<\/span><\/path><\/svg><\/div>

CIB seven<\/strong> is an open-source fork of the Camunda 7 BPM engine and was developed specifically for companies looking for a long-term, maintainable, and license-free solution for process automation. The focus is on full compatibility with Camunda 7, supplemented by a modern, self-developed user interface (from version 2.0) and extended integration options for connecting external REST services or existing identity management systems.<\/p>

CIB seven<\/strong> is aimed at organizations that either already use Camunda and need a future-proof alternative or are evaluating a powerful and flexible BPM platform for the first time.<\/p>

The platform is constantly being developed and offers both a free Community Version and other paid versions with advanced features and long-term support. For more details on the available versions, see here<\/a><\/span>.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>

CIB seven<\/strong> provides dedicated migration scripts and tools based on Open Rewrite that enable automated conversion of existing Camunda 7 projects. The migration paths have been developed based on practical experience, including internal CIB projects, and take into account differences in APIs, data models, and deployment strategies.<\/p>

In addition, the migration of running process instances is being actively tested in the demo system. The aim is an uninterrupted migration with maximum compatibility with Camunda 7.22+. Supporting tools are available for older versions.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>

\n\t\t\t\t\t
<\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/path><\/svg><\/span>How is database migration supported? <\/span><\/path><\/svg><\/div>

CIB seven<\/strong> is compatible with all common relational databases such as PostgreSQL, MySQL and H2. Existing Camunda database schemas can be adapted using standardized migration scripts to ensure a smooth changeover.<\/p>

For more complex requirements, such as extensive historization or advanced database models, CIB offers additional tools and professional support. The database schemas of the Community and Enterprise versions are fully compatible, so it is possible to switch between the two versions at any time.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>
