5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on improving the migration towards our next-generation architecture and the general behavior when running on the next-generation architecture. Furthermore, several improvements have been made to our infrastructure to ensure that all data flowing via this infrastructure now that more and more customers are migrating can be handled as well, if not better, as before.
5 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on a lot of things that are unfortanetly not quite ready to be released. As a result the ouput 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.

7 +== **Next generation improvements and bug fixes** ==

9 -//__"Stop" action when running a hybrid situation is not causing issues anymore__//
10 -Before, it could happen when running a double-lane setup in a hybrid situation (i.e., karaf, based runtimes on top of the next-generation architecture) that the stop action on said runtime would not stop the runtime but "kill" it. With this release, that behavior is changed.
9 +//__Enhanced right-hand view within Deployment Plan context__//
10 +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.
11 11  
12 -{{info}}Note that this fix is part of a new runtime image for the karaf-based runtimes. The impact of this can be read [[here>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Crash Course.Crash Course Platform.crashcourse-platform-deploy-execute-deployment-plan-gen3.WebHome||target="blank"]]{{/info}}
12 +{{info}}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.{{/info}}
13 13  
14 -//__Improved efficiency in deploying a release__//
15 -This release improves the efficiency of the "prepare release" step needed when deploying on the next-generation architecture.
14 +//__Improved timeout settings when deploying__//
15 +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.
16 16  
17 -//__Removed specific dependencies between Deploy Architecture and Releases__//
18 -In this release, we have removed several explicit dependencies that confused the functionality in the Deploy Architecture overview compared to the functionality linked to a release, specifically the deployment of a release.
17 +{{info}}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>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.WebHome||target="blank"]]{{/info}}
19 19  
20 -//__Improved validation errors on the invalid configuration of HTTP outbound components__//
21 -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.
19 +//__Detailed HTTP Statistics now show user info in specific additional cases__//
20 +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.
22 22  
23 -//__Improved migration behavior__//
24 -This release introduces several improvements concerning the migration behavior via "Transfer settings from Design." Among these are:
25 -A smoother migration of your JMS (and backup JMS) process.
26 -Shortening of names that otherwise would be too long, additional feedback given to the user.
27 -Feedback when the migration process is finished.
22 +{{info}}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>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.WebHome||target="blank"]]{{/info}}
28 28  
29 -//__Additional checks when deploying__//
30 -This release introduces additional checks when deploying. Among others, we have added a check to prevent you from deploying two flows that use the same resource with differing versions. Not stopping this can cause issues with deployments and even worse with the functional behavior of the flows, as it leads to the situation in which a validation error might trigger on one offramp but not on the other.
24 +//__Improved loading speed of Manage Dashboard__//
25 +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.
31 31  
27 +== **Store Improvements** ==
28 +
29 +//__Importing in Design is improved__//
30 +We have solved a bug that could cause issues when importing something in Design while the accompanying integration was not yet in Create.
31 +
32 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
33 +
34 +//__Deprecated reminder pop-up removed__//
35 +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.
36 +
37 +//__Improved selection area in Flow Designer__//
38 +When working on a large flow you can now select specific areas easily while you are scrolled down furhter down the flow.
39 +
40 +//__Improved Kafka settings_//
41 +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.
42 +
43 +{{info}}We stronly 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{{/info}}

32 32  == **Fancy Forum Answers** ==
33 33  
34 34  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:
