Hi there, eMagiz developers! In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on a lot of things that are unfortunately not quite ready to be released. As a result the output of this release is limited. Having said that we still bring some key improvements in the Deploy and Manage phase that would make life much easier.

Next generation improvements and bug fixes

Enhanced right-hand view within Deployment Plan context
When executing your deployment plan we will show specific log entries of the info category that indicate that a container (i.e. runtime) has started up correctly. On top of that we show the warnings and errors in this overview.

Note that when the JMS container gets restarted connection errors in the logs are a normal thing to witness so keep your eyes peeled for the startup logging on JMS level to gain confidence in the deployment.

Improved timeout settings when deploying
To avoid mismatches between various parts of the infrastructure we have improved the timeout configuration on certain deployment plan steps to reduce the chance that these mismatches occur.

Note that this fix is part of a new runtime image for the current-generation runtimes. The release notes of this can be found here

Detailed HTTP Statistics now show user info in specific additional cases
To solve a bug for a specific client we changed the logic to show the user info (i.e. first part of the api key) in a specific implementation just as we already do in our standard implementations.

Note that this fix is part of a new runtime image for the next-generation runtimes. The release notes of this can be found here

Improved loading speed of Manage Dashboard
This release improves the loading speed with which all the dashboards in Manage are shown to the user. This will enhance the user experience within the Manage phase.

Store Improvements

Importing in Design is improved
We have solved a bug that could cause issues when importing something in Design while the accompanying integration was not yet in Create.

Bug Fixes

Deprecated reminder pop-up removed
We have removed a reminder pop-up on a pending cloud template as it was deprecated and could cause issues when using it in communication with other systems.

Improved selection area in Flow Designer
When working on a large flow you can now select specific areas easily while you are scrolled down further down the flow.

Improved Kafka settings
For all flows that use a Kafka related component within the flow designer we will run a migration to update every single one of them to the new best practices and create a new flow version for them.

We strongly encourage all users that use these components to update to these new best practices as they increase stability of the cluster and throughput of the solution

Fancy Forum Answers

As always, this is a gentle reminder to ask questions via the Q&A forum. The Q&A forum is available in the eMagiz iPaaS portal, so we can all benefit from the knowledge within the community. For some inspiration, take a look at these forum answers:
