What Camunda Platform Architecture are you?

Camunda Community Podcast

In this episode, Camunda Developer Advocate Niall Deehan walks us through selecting from the various options for a Camunda Platform architecture.
Springboot? Camunda Run? Embedded? Distributed? Java? Not Java?
The options are non-trivial, but Niall walks us through the answer to the question: "Sure, it depends - but what does it depend on?" in a way that reveals the various factors and their influences on architecture.
