Upgrade notes

Bitnami Docker repository migration

On August 28, 2025, Bitnami migrated its container images from bitnami to bitnamilegacy. The Camunda Helm charts have been updated to use the new repository.

If you are still using a Camunda Helm chart that references the old repository, use the Helm chart Bitnami legacy values file to override the image repositories.

See the Bitnami GitHub announcement for details.
