Heads Up!

To update Optimize to version 3.14.x please perform the following steps: Migration & Update Instructions.

The update to 3.14 can be performed from any 3.13 release.

For users of Optimize 3.7.3 with OpenSearch, there is a direct update path from 3.7.3 to 3.14. The required steps are described in the migration and update instructions.

Here you will find information about:

  • Limitations
  • Known issues
  • Changes in supported environments
  • Changes in behavior (for example, due to a new feature)
  • Changes in translation resources

Limitations

Not all Optimize features are supported when using OpenSearch as a database. For a full list of the features that are currently supported, please refer to the Camunda 7 OpenSearch features.

Versioning

As of Optimize 3.14, instances of Optimize running with Camunda 7 exclusively use the 3.x.x versioning scheme. Instances of Optimize running with Camunda 8 exclusively use the 8.x.x versioning scheme. This means you will only be able to update to Optimize 3.14 if you currently use Optimize 3.13⁄8.5 with Camunda 7. Optimize instances of versions 3.13⁄8.5 running with Camunda 8 cannot be upgraded to Optimize 3.14.

To ensure that Optimize 8 upgrades are not applied to Operate instances using Camunda 7, the 3.14 upgrade runs a check against the connected database before executing, and exits the upgrade if any Camunda 8 data is present in your setup. Specifically, it validates that there is no data present in the position-based-import-index, which is exclusively used for Camunda 8 data imports.

Contact Camunda support if you encounter issues upgrading to 3.14 in your Camunda Platform 7 environment.
