Spring Boot + Camunda 7 Integration Example
Integrating Spring Boot with Camunda 7 is a popular and stable approach for building Java-based BPM applications . In Camunda 7, the process engine is embedded directly inside the Spring Boot application, allowing synchronous execution of BPMN processes and direct invocation of Java code from Service Tasks. This blog demonstrates a simple end-to-end integration example using Spring Boot, Camunda 7, BPMN, and Java Service Tasks. 🔹 1. Architecture Overview In Camunda 7 : The BPMN engine runs inside Spring Boot Service Tasks invoke Java classes directly Execution is synchronous Java objects can be used as process variables Transactions are managed by Spring 👉 This architecture is ideal for on-premise systems , monoliths , or internal microservices . 🔹 2. Prerequisites Java 11 or Java 17 Spring Boot 2.x Camunda 7.x Maven Camunda Modeler 🔹 3. Maven Dependencies Add the Camunda 7 Spring Boot starter: < dependency > < groupId ...
