The focus of the release blog will consequently also be on this subject. On top of that, we have several smaller feedback items from our hackathon efforts that are now released to you. 6 6 7 -== ** 3rd generationimprovements** ==8 +== **Release Properties** == 8 8 9 -//__Better feedback in the error log when a corrupt stylesheet is encountered__// 10 -We have improved the logging within a 3rd generation runtime that identifies the broken resource by name within a container and informs you to navigate to Create -> Resources to see in which flows the resource is used so you can take the appropriate action. 10 +As of this release, we will introduce a new way of handling properties for all our clients. This change intends to solidify the relationship between a release and a property value. Before, in the current generation architecture, the timing of changing properties was crucial to avoid costly mistakes in Production. On top of that, it could have been clearer whether a property value was indeed updated as it was not linked to something deployed. These considerations allow us to change the property management behavior in our next-generation architecture and our current-generation architecture. There are several fundamental changes compared to the current way of managing your properties. Most notable among these are: 11 11 12 -//__Better internal error handling to avoid unnecessary alerting and notifications__// 13 -We have improved the internal error handling when sending metrics from the runtime to our monitoring stack. This will gravely reduce the alerts you receive on this topic when your model runs on the 3rd generation monitoring stack. 12 +* The current properties tab in Deploy will disappear. The new overview of the properties (and their values) can be found under the "Create phase release" in Deploy -> Releases 13 +* Property placeholders (i.e., the names of properties as given in Create) are now automatically created for you. As a result, you don't have to type them twice when working on an integration. 14 +* When adding or editing a property, you can **now** select multiple runtimes for which the property applies. This is mainly beneficial for those running in a double-lane setup or having a distributed landscape of containers. 15 +* A, for most, new concept of a "property release" is introduced. With the help of this functionality, you can easily change a property on Production without having to create an entirely new release in Test and promote it to the Production environment. 14 14 15 - //__Improved Manage Dashboard__//16 - Thisreleaseimproveswhatyou cansee in the ManageDashboard afteryoumigrateyour modeltothe 3rd generationruntime architecture.17 +{{info}} 18 +For more information, please check out the following microlearnings: 17 17 18 -//__Improved process surrounding "slot standby" and "slot wakeup" for 3rd generation runtimes__// 19 -When a slot is put into standby mode, we also stop all on-premise runtimes to avoid excessive logging (and alerting) on your models with this functionality. The opposite happens when the slot wakeup is triggered. As a result, not only the cloud runtimes are started but also all on-premise runtimes. 20 +* [[Property Management>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Crash Course.Crash Course Platform.crashcourse-platform-deploy-property-management-new.WebHome||target="blank"]] 21 +* [[Actualize properties - current generation architecture>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Legacy Functionality.crashcourse-platform-deploy-actualize-properties-new.WebHome||target="blank"]] 22 +* [[Actualize properties - next generation architecture>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Crash Course.Crash Course Platform.crashcourse-platform-deploy-actualize-properties-gen3-new.WebHome||target="blank"]] 20 20 21 - //__Improvedprocessofdeploypreparation__//22 - With this release, we have improved the process through which your deployment action is prepared by eMagiz.

Based on that determination, additional components are added to ensure that the streaming container will work after migrating without manual intervention. 27 +== ** Manage - Graphs improvements ~*~* ** == 26 26 27 -//__Add History to Notifications in Manage__// 28 -To improve the auditability of our platform, we have introduced an audit trail to the Notification section in Manage for models running on our 3rd generation monitoring stack. This way, it is always visible when the notifications were paused and who paused or unpaused the notifications. 29 +As of this release, we will create a condensed view of your metrics when zooming out in the Manage phase graphs. This will significantly improve the performance of the managed graphs as we retrieve and show less fine-grained information when zooming out. 29 29 30 -//__Improved Manage phase for Event Streaming__// 31 -Based on the feedback on our first iteration of the Manage phase for Event Streaming, we have improved the graphs and the calculations that fill the graphs with values.
