## What it is
Camunda Platform 7 is a Java-based BPMN 2.0 process engine framework for workflow and decision automation, embeddable in any JVM application with Spring and Java EE integration, plus REST API, Cockpit, Admin, and Tasklist web tools. The Community Edition is now End of Life, with Camunda 8 as its successor.

## Use cases
- automate business workflows with bpmn 2.0 in java
- embed a process engine in a spring application
- model and execute dmn decision tables
- manage human approval tasks in a workflow
- monitor and operate running bpmn processes
- expose process control via a rest api

## When to choose
- maintaining an existing Camunda 7 installation
- you need a mature, embeddable BPMN engine on the JVM and accept EoL risk
- studying or extending legacy BPMN/DMN automation code

## When to avoid
- starting a new workflow automation project - use Camunda 8 instead
- you need community support, security fixes, or long-term maintenance
- you want cloud-native orchestration with modern tooling

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: abandoned
- function: workflow-automation, api-framework, http-server, monitoring
- domain: backend, developer-tools, apis
- platform: jvm, self-hosted
