5		-**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have work hard on improving our next generation architecture and introduced the "live" mode within our flow testing functionality. Furthermore there are loads of smaller feedback items and bugs that have been resolved with this release. So without further ado let us dive into all we have to offer.
	5	+**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** We have processed additional feedback on the Manage phase to ensure you can more easily create overviews of your statistics, displaying all information correctly and improving the migration process to the next-generation architecture in the Create phase slightly. On top of that, we have improved the scalability of our new generation monitoring stack and the alerting structure. We will also release a new cloud template for our next-generation infrastructure to comply with technical requirements from our cloud provider.

9		-With this release we bring an improved version of the flow testing functionality. As of now you will have the option to switch between "live" and "mock" mode will running a flow test. The "mock" mode is the mode you are used to from us. In this mode all external communication is mocked by the system and only the functional process can be tested.
	9	+As can be seen on our [[status page>>https://status.emagiz.com/incidents/dbh6g9w3ks7q||target="blank"]], we will release a new cloud template for our next-generation models (both single and double lane) that will change a configuration in these templates to comply with technical and operational requirements from our cloud provider. The announcement of the status page itself holds more detail for those to whom it pertains.
10	10
11		-By switching to "live" mode you can not only test the functional process but also the communication to the external system. You can do so by entering the "edit" mode of the flow test and toggle between "mock" and "live" mode. When doing so eMagiz will show you the following pop-up stressing the consequences of your actions.

	13	+//__Improved Validation when migrating to the next-generation architecture__//
	14	+To improve the migration process to the next-generation architecture, we now show a list of all reported problems, allowing the user to resolve them before migrating to the next-generation architecture.
14	14
15		-Once confirmed you will see that the user interface now indicates that the endpoint is in "live" mode.
	16	+{{info}}Note that when no problem is found, the migration process of that runtime will start automatically.{{/info}}

17		-[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@196-release-blog--live-flow-testing-result.png]]
	18	+//__Improved HTTP Statistics__//
	19	+To improve the filtering and refresh functionality we offer on this overview, we have made several changes in this release that will improve the behavior of this overview.
18	18
19		-{{info}}* The following restrictions apply for this functionality
20		- ** "Live" mode can only be activated on HTTP outbound gateway components
21		- ** "Live" mode can **not** be active when you want to use the flow test as an "automated" test{{/info}}
	21	+//__"Topic Full" alert restriction changed__//
	22	+With this release, we will change the "Topic Full" trigger point in our standard set of alerts once a model uses the Event Streaming functionality. Before, the alert would trigger on 80%, but as we saw, this is too early to make the alert useful in the context of our customers. As a result, the threshold has been raised to 95% to accommodate real-life situations better.
22	22
23		-== **3rd generation improvements** ==
	24	+//__Improved performance Manage Dashboards__//
	25	+We have improved the efficiency of retrieving the data shown in the Manage Dashboards for the next-generation architecture.
24	24
25		-//__Event Streaming statistics completion__//
26		-In this release, we have updated the retrieval of data to ensure that for all models, all environments and all topics this data can be shown to the user so they can properly monitor the environment.
	27	+//__Show values on the runtime level in Deploy Architecture__//
	28	+We have improved the values shown on the runtime (i.e., container) level in Deploy Architecture so you can better assess whether the memory configuration is still suitable for your deployed solution.
27	27
28		-//__Deployments on next generation architecture__//
29		-This release fixes several smaller bugs and adds several improvements to the deployment process of the next generation architecture.
	30	+{{info}}To get to the values we use different calculation methods per type of runtime, as certain runtime types have various reasons for existence.
	31	+* JMS - The number of queues in the active release.
	32	+* Messaging Container - The number of messaging integrations in the active release.
	33	+* Messaging Connector - The number of messaging integrations related to this system in the active release.
	34	+* API Gateway Container - The number of operations in the active release.
	35	+* Event Streaming Container - The number of event processors in the active release.
30	30
31		-//__Clean queues option__//
32		-This release introduces an option for **admins** to clean queues that remained after a migration towards the next generation runtime architecture. This will make the overview of which queues are "problematic" a much more realistic overview.
	37	+There might be multi-tenant and multi-runtime situations that do not always get to the exact number; however, this is a great improvement compared to showing no values.{{/info}}
33	33
34		-== **Feedback items ** ==
	39	+== **Bug Fixes** ==
35	35
36		-//__On-premise containers are started upon slot wakeup__//
37		-With this release, we have added additional functionality to models running in the next generation runtime architecture. With this improvement all on-premise containers are stopped when the cloud slot goes to sleep and are woken up once the slot is woken up in the morning.
	41	+//__Improved information Queue Statistics__//
	42	+Given several constraints, it could happen that specific queues needed to be correctly displayed within the Manage phase on your model, making it tough to manage them. This has been resolved with this release.
38	38
39		-//__Resource path is shown to the user__//
40		-You can now, without downloading, see the resource path of a resource by viewing the metadata of the resource. You can do so by pressing the "eye" icon to view this information.
	44	+//__Gain the ability again to configure certificates in Deploy Architecture again__//
	45	+In restricting the configuration options on the certificate level in one of our latter releases, it became impossible for normal users to add and edit certificates within Deploy Architecture. To resolve this problem we have now released a fix to resolve this issue, giving people the ability again to add and edit certificates under Deploy Architecture.
41	41
42		-//__Flow designer improvements__//
43		-With this release various improvements have been made to the flow designer. Among others we have improved the overview of what an "unused resource" is. You now have the option to define certain resources that are used but cannot be auto-detected by eMagiz to be an "used" resource to avoid confusion.
	47	+//__Ensure that differing container configurations deploy the correct configuration__//
	48	+When you run in a multi-runtime configuration and change the actual flows that need to run on container A vs. container B, it happened before that all flows were still being deployed on all runtimes. With this release, we will feed this information correctly to our infrastructure to ensure the correct and configured flows are deployed on the proper containers.
44	44
45		-//__Improved capabilities of a company contact__//
46		-With this release we have improved the capabilities of a company contact. As of now you can also add users to models belonging to subcompanies below your the company to which you are the company contact.
	50	+//__Remove queurying options in Manage__//
	51	+To avoid errors and loading problems when analyzing your statistics in Manage, we have removed the option to select a default time range spanning more than seven days. This is to guarantee the stability of the solution and to avoid users getting unnecessary errors.
47	47
48		-== **Bug fixes ** ==
49		-
50		-//__Optional API parameters are handled correctly__//
51		-Currently, eMagiz would create the wrong expression for handling optional API parameters. With this release we have improved the expression in such a way that all optional parameters are handled correctly out of the box.
52		-
53		-//__Without CDM rights nothing related to any data model can be edited anymore__//
54		-With this release, we have made sure that nothing related to any data model can be edited without having the proper rights.
55		-
56		-//__Improved sorting of Design and Deploy archticture__//
57		-With this release, we now ensure that both Design and Deploy architecture are sorted in the same manner to avoid confusion when quickly switching between both views.
