Camunda Unveils Cutting-Edge Features to Empower Enterprise-Grade AI Agents
In today’s fast-evolving technological landscape, organizations are increasingly turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to drive innovation and efficiency. However, while the potential of AI is immense, many enterprises struggle to move beyond pilot projects due to challenges in scalability, security, and control. Camunda, a leader in enterprise agentic automation, has stepped up to address these pain points with its latest release of advanced agentic orchestration capabilities. These features aim to help organizations design, deploy, and manage smarter, connected, and trusted AI agents at scale, transforming ambitious AI aspirations into tangible operational advantages.
The announcement was made at CamundaCon, the company’s annual conference held in New York City. The event brought together over 500 in-person attendees and an additional 1,300 virtual participants, all eager to explore the future of automation. With this release, Camunda introduces tools that simplify development, enhance security, and provide greater flexibility for deploying AI agents in mission-critical business processes. These innovations enable organizations to confidently integrate AI into their workflows, ensuring transparency, compliance, and adaptability.
Bridging the Gap Between AI Potential and Practicality
One of the key challenges in implementing AI solutions is balancing autonomy with control. “Most agentic AI projects stall at pilot, not because the models aren’t capable, but because there isn’t yet an architecture available that provides the guardrails to deploy agents to business-critical processes without risk,” explained Daniel Meyer, CTO of Camunda. “Agentic orchestration changes that equation, giving enterprises control over how much autonomy to grant an agent, bringing control where needed and flexibility where AI shines.”
By combining deterministic flows—structured, predictable processes—with dynamic agents capable of adapting to new information, Camunda enables businesses to achieve productivity gains that were previously out of reach. This hybrid approach ensures that AI agents can operate within well-defined parameters while still delivering the agility and innovation that make them valuable.
Key Features for Building and Orchestrating Trusted Agents
Camunda’s new release focuses on empowering organizations to build and orchestrate AI agents at scale using an agentic BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) framework. Here are some of the standout features:
- AI Agent Connector:
This feature allows AI agents to function autonomously within end-to-end processes while seamlessly integrating with leading large language model (LLM) providers like Azure OpenAI and AWS Bedrock. Organizations can select the most suitable model for each use case, optimizing for speed, cost, and performance. Whether deploying focused task agents or more complex, stateful process agents, the connector ensures transparency, compliance, and adaptability across critical workflows. - Model Context Protocol (MCP) Connector:
To support multi-agent communication, the MCP connector enables agents and processes to auto-discover and interact with enterprise systems while retaining full context. This capability unlocks advanced coordination patterns, ensuring that governance and transparency remain intact—a must-have for enterprises operating in regulated industries. - Composable Short-Term Memory:
For AI agents to handle follow-up questions or feedback loops effectively, they need conversational context. Camunda’s composable short-term memory equips agents with this ability without compromising process performance. This ensures smoother interactions and enhances user experience. - Long-Term Memory with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG):
Long-term memory capabilities allow agents to recall past conversations, domain-specific knowledge, or customer data. Leveraging RAG, agents can perform context-rich reasoning, leading to higher decision accuracy and more personalized outcomes. - Copilot with FEEL Capabilities:
Camunda’s Copilot simplifies the integration of AI outputs into business rules by generating, validating, and explaining FEEL (Friendly Enough Expression Language) expressions from natural language inputs. This ensures that logic remains auditable and executable, bridging the gap between AI-generated insights and actionable business decisions.
Real-World Impact: Transforming Healthcare Delivery
The practical benefits of Camunda’s agentic orchestration capabilities are already being realized in industries like healthcare. George Kutnerian, Co-Founder, President, and CEO of Wellpointe Inc., shared how Camunda’s platform has enabled his organization to create an advanced medication order management system. “Camunda’s proven strength in orchestration allowed us to deliver consistent, yet personalized and compassionate customer experiences—at scale,” he said. “Now, with agentic capabilities integrated into our governance framework, we’re excited to unlock even greater efficiency and innovation as we develop transformative care delivery models.”
Streamlined Deployment and Enhanced Security
To further support enterprise adoption, Camunda has introduced a new Orchestration Cluster that consolidates Zeebe, Operate, Tasklist, and Identity into a single application. This streamlined approach simplifies configuration, management, and monitoring while enabling seamless scaling in any direction. Additionally, high availability and disaster recovery are guaranteed, ensuring uninterrupted operations.
Security and governance have also been bolstered with a new identity service that provides enterprise-grade authentication and fine-grained authorization across both self-managed and SaaS environments. These enhancements ensure that organizations can deploy AI agents with confidence, knowing their systems are protected against unauthorized access and misuse.
A Vision for the Autonomous Enterprise
With its latest release, Camunda is paving the way for what it calls the “autonomous enterprise”—a future where humans and AI agents collaborate seamlessly to drive productivity and innovation. As Daniel Meyer noted, “With this foundation, the vision of the autonomous enterprise, where humans and AI agents work together, is no longer a pipe dream.”
By marrying dynamic reasoning with deterministic guardrails, Camunda is empowering organizations to harness the full potential of AI. Its agentic orchestration capabilities provide the structure, flexibility, and trust needed to turn AI aspirations into operational realities. For enterprises looking to stay competitive in an increasingly AI-driven world, Camunda’s innovations represent a significant step forward.
