5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on improving our next-generation architecture and introduced alerting functionality on top of our event streaming pattern based on user feedback. Furthermore, several smaller feedback items and bugs have been resolved with this release. So without further ado, let us dive into all we have to offer.
5 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on planning the upcoming Q and finishing up features of the last Q. More on that later. On top of that we have several smaller items as a result of our hackathon efforts to present to you.
6 6  
7 -== **Event streaming alerting** ==
7 +== **Announcement - Release Properties** ==
8 +As of the next release (202) we will introduce a completely new way of handling properties for all our clients. In the upcoming weeks we will publish additional information on the process, what changes, and how you best manage your properties as of then within the documentation portal. Should you have any questions in advance please contact us at [[productmanagement@emagiz.com>>mailto:academy@emagiz.com]].

9 -This release expands our alerting functionality into the event streaming pattern. As of now, one new "static" alert has been introduced for all clients (using event streaming), and two "dynamic" alerts have been introduced that you can configure yourself if there is a need for it.
10 +== ** Deploy Architecture - Apply To Environment improvements ** ==
11 +As of this release we will show you a list of all change that are about to be changed once you press "Apply to environment" in Deploy Architecture. This will ensure that it becomes clearer for users, especially those working together in teams, what will change when pressing this button.
10 10  
11 -The "static" alert we have added raises an alert (and a subsequent email) when the actual topic size crosses the threshold of 80% of the configured maximum retention size on a topic. This alert provides insights into whether messages on it are deleted due to a size or time constraint. In cases where data is deleted, the topic was too full way before the messages should have been removed due to the retention hours constraint. This alert can indicate that messages might be deleted before consumer groups had the option to consume the messages.
13 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@201-release-blog--apply-to-environment-example.png]]
12 12  
13 -The two "dynamic" alerts we have added mimic the alerting on the queue level we already offer to the community.
15 +== ** Breadcrumb navigation in eMagiz ** ==
16 +With this release we introduce the "breadcrumb" navigation in certain parts of eMagiz. This will mostly be noticed, and have impact, in the Create phase when you are checking out your transformation or system message on flow level. Apart from there the navigation is implemented consistently across the portal for a unified look and feel.
14 14  
15 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@197-release-blog--new-alerting-options.png]]
18 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@201-release-blog--breadcrumb-navigation-example.png]]
16 16  
17 -The first new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once the number of messages on one (or more topics) is less than a certain number per defined time unit. So, for example, you can configure an alert once the number of messages placed on a topic called "Exception" is less than 15 messages within 5 minutes.
20 +== **Feedback Items** ==
18 18  
19 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@197-release-blog--alert-config-example.png]]
22 +//__Improved layout of catalog page in Design__//
23 +We have improved the layout of the API Catalog overview in Design for our API Gateway users. Among others, we have introduced a scrollbar to get a better overview when having several operations.
20 20  
21 -The second new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once one (or more) consumer groups are more than X messages behind on one or more topics. The configuration of this is comparable to what we saw before.
25 +//__Improved layout of "Edit integration" pop-up for API Gateway integrations__//
26 +As of now the full path of your backend system will be shown when opening the "Edit integration" pop-up on your API Gateway integration.
22 22  
23 -For more information on the generic way of working surrounding alerting, please check out this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Crash Course.Crash Course Platform.crashcourse-platform-manage-alerting-gen3||target="blank"]] and this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Novice.Alerting.novice-alerting-dynamic-alerting.WebHome||target="blank"]].
28 +//__Additional help texts on Design Architecture__//
29 +We have improved the help texts in Design Archicture in relation to the Event Streaming topic storage overview.
24 24  
25 -== **3rd generation improvements** ==
31 +//__Improved Audit Trail on several places__//
32 +In several places in the portal we have improved the audit trail to better specify who changed what at which point in time.
26 26  
27 -//__Increased grace period for shutdown__//
28 -In this release, we have increased a container's grace period to shut down before it is forcefully shut down. This should reduce the chance of unwanted failover behavior within your model.
34 +//__Removed the erroneous alert on message mapping when having a passthrough API__//
35 +This release removes the erroneous alert people reported on "errors in message mapping" for a passthrough API.
29 29  
30 -//__Update at once or not__//
31 -This release fixes and re-introduces the option to execute your actions on the eMagiz per zone or all at once when running in a double-lane Docker setup.
37 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
32 32  
33 -//__Improved user feedback while executing a deployment plan__//
34 -This release introduces additional feedback to the user when the deployment plan is executed. This is noticeable when a step cannot be executed properly. The relevant information about why this cannot be executed is shown to the user. This way, they can take this information and act upon it instead of assuming everything went well.
39 +//__Avoid clicking on other components while deleting another__//
40 +To avoid unexpected behavior we now ensure that nothing can be selected once you see the "deletion" pop-up when you want to remove something in the flow designer.
35 35  
36 -//__Improved auto-healing when running in a hybrid situation__//
37 -In situations where you run in a hybrid situation (i.e., partly next-gen and partly the current generation), we have improved the auto-healing functionality in case an "out of memory" appears on a runtime running in the current generation but on a next-generation architecture.
42 +//__Improved validation feedback in migrating to the next-generation architecture__//
43 +We have improved several things with regards to the validation feedback when migrating to the next-generation architecture.
38 38  
39 -//__Improved rollup and storage of metrics when running your solution in the next generation archticture__//
40 -To improve the stability of the Manage phase and, in particular, the metrics when zooming out on the provided information, we have made some structural changes that support this user functionality better.
45 +//__Make sure that user credentials can be viewed with view rights__//
46 +This release makes sure that the user credentials in Deploy can be viewed with view rights and not only when having edit rights.
41 41  
42 -{{warning}} Due to this change, the platform will remove data collected before the release date in the upcoming weeks. This process will be finished at the beginning of June. From then on, all data before the 12th of May will no longer be visible. As users generally do not look back this far back in time, we consider this an acceptable trade-off. {{/warning}}
48 +//__Refresh behavior within the deployment plan is fixed__//
49 +This release changes the refresh behavior within the deployment plan to show, once more, the "to be installed" flows before the user presses Execute.
43 43  
44 -== **Feedback items ** ==
45 -
46 -//__Make sure the message format can be viewed without "Start editing"__//
47 -With this release, we have ensured that when you navigate to Design -> System message, you can see the message format (i.e., XML, JSON, or EDI) without entering the "Start Editing" mode.
48 -
49 -//__Various styling improvements in the flow testing functionality__//
50 -Various minor styling improvements have been added to the flow testing functionality to improve the overall user experience. Please check out the release notes for a complete list and more details.
