Description

Document the existing pattern for upgrade-stable Web Modeler and Camunda Hub pod anti-affinity selectors across the Next, 8.9, 8.8, and 8.7 documentation.

The examples pair a user-owned Pod label with the same affinity selector, avoiding dependencies on Helm chart-managed labels. The guidance also covers namespace scope, topology labels, preferred versus required rules, and scheduler cost. The Next page now uses the current camundaHub.* values and links to the existing 8.9-to-8.10 migration guidance.

The guidance additionally states that the same podLabels and affinity pairing applies to every affinity-capable component, warns against selecting on chart-managed labels such as app.kubernetes.io/component, and notes that overriding the Orchestration Cluster (8.7: Zeebe) affinity replaces the default hard podAntiAffinity rule.
