5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** It has been a while since our last deployment on the 9th of December. As a result we have finished up a lot of new improvements to our 3rd generation runtime offering and fixed a variety of annoying bugs as well as some small improvements. This release is characterized by the major steps we took to release several major features on our 3rd generation runtime among which are the queue browser and message redelivery functionality.
5 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have processed some of the early feedback on the release properties. On top of that we have improved the scalability of our complete solution and solved various smaller feedback items.

7 -== **Queue Browser** ==
7 +== **Release Properties - Early Feedback** ==
8 +The release property functionality was well received by the community. However, there was still room for improvement based on some of the early feedback we received from the community. Some of these early feedback items have been addressed in this release. As a result we have updated the layout of the edit screen of a property and have updated our checks on nested properties to avoid missing properties.

10 +== **Feedback Items** ==

11 -To enhance the observability of your integration landscape while running in the 3rd generation runtime architecture we have added a new feature to our Manage phase called the "Queue browser". You can access this functionality via the "Explore" menu option in Manage. With the help of the queue browser you can, as the name suggests, browse your queue.
12 +//__"All entries" are now cleaned up as part of the migration__//
13 +To avoid problems when removing integrations after the migration towards the next-generation architecture we now clean-up the "all-entries" as part of the migration towards the next-generation architecture.
12 12  
13 -To do so, we offer two options within this functionality. We have the Explore function and we have the Wiretap function. When selecting a queue and opting for the Explore option you get a live view of what data is currently present on the queue. When selecting the Wiretap functionality you automatically wiretap your queue and are presented with copies (on a special queue) of your actual message that pass through the queue from the moment you pressed the Wiretap button.
15 +//__Trigger ID added to our alerting on the next-generation architecture__//
16 +We have added a unique trigger ID to each alert configuration to make the interpretation for our support desk much easier and better manageable.

18 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
16 16  
17 -After selecting the queue and choosing the option eMagiz will show you the list of messages (oldest first) that are currently on the queue (Explore option) or that passed the queue since the moment you activate the option (Wiretap option). For each message you have various options at your disposal.
20 +//__Ensure no flow can be in a release twice__//
21 +We have fixed a bug that could cause one flow to end up in the same release with two different flow versions. As this will break your solution on various occasions we fixed this.
18 18  
19 -* Delete the message from the queue (Explore option)
20 - ** This means throwing away live data which can be helpful in a test or acceptance environment where you inadvertedly put a lot of messages on a queue.
21 -* Clear message from the wiretap queue (Wiretap option)
22 - ** Once you are done with the analysis of a certain message in the wiretap functionality you can clear it from the overview so it does not clutter the view anymore
23 -* Refresh messages list (both options)
24 - ** By pressing this button you can refresh the list of messages that are displayed to you. Note that the list is sorted in such a way that the oldest messages are shown first
25 -* Save as test message
26 - ** By pressing this button you can save the message and use it in our flow testing functionality in Create. Note that we link the message to the corresponding flow if we can. Should we not be able to do so we link the message to your model so you can still use it in the flow testing functionality.
27 -* Download
28 - ** By pressing this button you can download the message and use it outside of the tooling should that be needed.

39 -
40 -Just as with our current offering we now offer our message redelivery functionality for our 3rd generation architecture. To enhance the user experience we have placed this functionality as well under the "Explore" option in Manage. When selecting the message redelivery option you will see all messages that are currently in need to be redelivered (as an error occurred).
41 -
42 -Just as in the current functionality you can select a specific message and retry (or delete) it. The same can be done for all messages at once. Following that you can still see the linked error message as you could before.
43 -
44 -On top of that we have added some additional functionality.
45 -
46 -* Search option
47 - ** Original queue name
48 - ** Original message ID (which can be found as a header called jms_messageid in the error message view)
49 -* Save as test message
50 - ** By pressing this button you can save the message and use it in our flow testing functionality in Create.
51 -* Download
52 - ** By pressing this button you can download the message and use it outside of the tooling should that be needed.

56 -== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
57 -
58 -This release will introduce various improvements for our 3rd generation runtime. Below you will find the most noteworthy enhancements we made to the 3rd generation runtime and its interaction with the portal.
59 -
60 -//__Define memory settings for on-premise runtimes from Deploy Architecture__//
61 -With this release, you are now able to define the memory settings (and therefore the memory limits) of your on-premise runtimes in the same manner as cloud runtimes. In all cases you can now define and change the memory settings via Deploy Architecture. In contrast to how these values are actualized for cloud runtimes you need to create a new release and deploy it to actualize the changes on-premise.
62 -
63 -//__Empty runtime feedback when deploying a release (or setting the release as active)__//
64 -To prevent that you are not being able to deploy a release to your environment due to a mismatch between what is in your release and in Deploy Architecture we have now added a feedback pop-up when deploying a release that notifies you for which runtimes there is a mismatch between your release and Deploy Architecture.
65 -
66 -//__Auto-fill namespaces for SOAP hosted webservices__//
67 -Based on your configuration in Design eMagiz will now auto-fill the namespace when you host a SOAP web service. This avoids any potential problems in validating messages.
68 -
69 -//__Updated H2 database setting__//
70 -As of this release, we have improved the configuration of our H2 databases that are used within eMagiz. This new setting will ensure that the runtime controls when the H2 database is shut down.
71 -
72 -{{warning}}If you already migrated your runtime, you should execute a "Reset" action on the infra flow to get these changes in your model{{/warning}}
73 -
74 -//__Runtime settings option added to context menu on runtime level Deploy Architecture__//
75 -As a replacement of the current HTTP settings context menu we have added a new menu item called runtime settings. On top of being able to configure your HTTP settings (which you need to define for a hosted web service) you now also can define whether the control bus needs to work for this runtime.
76 -
77 -//__Deploy Agent option added to context menu on machine level Deploy Architecture__//
78 -With this release, we have added a context menu item that allows user to deploy the agent that is needed to run your 3rd generation architecture on-premise. For more information on how to install this please check out this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Expert Level.Solution Architecture.expert-solution-architecture-onpremises-installguide.WebHome||target="blank"]]
79 -
80 -//__Performance improvement creating a release__//
81 -With this release, we have improved the performance of creating a release.
82 -
83 -== **Feedback items ** ==
84 -
85 -We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
86 -
87 -//__Sensitive information stored in properties is masked __//
88 -We have made how we display sensitive information across the portal in the same manner for various parts of the portal.
89 -
90 -//__Confirmation pop-up displaying whether your topology changes in Deploy Architecture__//
91 -To give the user additional feedback of what will happen on the cloud slot when the user presses "Apply to environment" we have now added a confirmation pop-up that is shown when you migrate from the current runtime architecture to the 3rd generation runtime.
92 -
93 -//__Improved read-only description for "if exists" constructions in Transformations__//
94 -To make it clear what the "if exists" check does while not being in "Start Editing" mode, we have improved the description so users without edit rights or without wanting to enter the "Start Editing" mode can read and interpret what the check does.
95 -
96 -
97 -== **Bug fixes ** ==
98 -
99 -//__Fix possibility that allowed you to break the system message when dealing with the "Order matters" functionality__//
100 -We have fixed the possibility you had that would break your system message upon validating it in Create when using the "Order matters" functionality.
101 -
102 -//__Synchronization of Event Streaming topic states__//
103 -We have fixed synchronization issues that could occur when several changes were executed on a model that uses a fast amount of topics.
104 -
105 -//__Apply to environment in User Management performance improvement__//
106 -We have improved the performance of updating User Management on your environment. This way, the update functionality is more stable and faster.
