Supported environments
The versions listed on this page are the minimum version required if appended with a +.
Pay attention to where the + falls, as most of our dependencies follow semantic versioning (semver), where x.y.z correspond to MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. Higher or more recent versions will be compatible with Camunda, with respect to semver.
For example, 1.2+ means support for the minor version 2, and any higher minors (1.3, 1.4, etc.) and patches (1.2.1, 1.2.2, etc.), but not majors, like 2.x.

Helm chart version matrix
The core Camunda components have a unified fixed release schedule following the release policy. However, some of the applications have their own schedule. The following compatibility matrix gives an overview of the different versions with respect to the Helm chart versions.
For more details about the applications version included in the Helm chart, review the full version matrix.
