5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have work hard on improving our next generation architecture and introduced alerting functionality on top of our event streaming pattern based on user feedback. Furthermore there are several 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 release properties in the last few weeks. On top of that, we have improved the error handling and manageability of our new generation monitoring stack.

7 -== **Event streaming alerting** ==
7 +== **Feedback Items** ==
8 8  
9 -With this release we expand our alerting functionality into the event streaming pattern. As of now one new "static" alert is introduced for all clients (using event streaming) and two "dynamic" alerts are introduced that you can configure yourself if there is need for it.
9 +//__Improved check on nested property placeholders__//
10 +To avoid problems when using nested property placeholders in your configuration, we have added additional checks to identify these nested properties as missing if they are indeed missing.
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 whether messages on it are deleted due to a size or time constraint. In cases where data is deleted becomes the topic was too full way before the messages should have been removed as a result of the retention hours constraint this alert can be seen as an indication that messages might be deleted before consumer groups had the option to consume the messages.
12 +//__Removed outdated properties when deploying on the new generation architecture stack__//
13 +We have removed two specific outdated properties from the configuration when deploying on the new generation architecture stack. The properties in question were necessary before in order to connect to a Kafka cluster but have become obsolete once you migrate.
12 12  
13 -The two "dynamic" alerts we have added mimic the alerting on queue level we already offer to the community.
15 +{{warning}}Should you still use the properties called "emagiz.runtime.name" and "emagiz.runtime.environment" **after** successfully migrating the flow in question to the next generation, please get in touch with us before deploying.{{/warning}}
14 14  
15 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@197-release-blog--new-alerting-options.png]]
17 +//__Improved performance Manage Dashboards__//
18 +We have improved the efficiency of retrieving the data shown in the Manage Dashboards for the next-generation architecture.
16 16  
17 -The first new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once the total 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 message placed on a topic called "Exception" is less than 15 messages within 5 minutes.
20 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
18 18  
19 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@196-release-blog--alert-config-example.png]]
22 +//__Errors with long stack traces or long message histories will now also show in eMagiz__//
23 +We have fixed a bug that could cause an error message to be lost between the flow and the Manage phase of eMagiz. This happened in situations where either the stack trace or the message history was very long. To ensure this new functionality is applied to your flows, create a new release and deploy it to your environment(s).
20 20  
21 -The second new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once one (or more) consumer groups is more than X number of messages behind on one or more topics. The configuration of this is comparable as we saw before.
25 +//__Moving runtimes from on-premise to the cloud will not result in a broken container anymore__//
26 +We have fixed a bug that caused specific runtimes to deploy on-premises but later migrated to the cloud, not to start up. By fixing this bug, you have more flexibility in moving containers around when running in a hybrid configuration.
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"]].

25 -== **3rd generation improvements** ==
26 -
27 -//__Increased grace period for shutdown__//
28 -In this release, we have increased the grace period a container gets to shutdown before it is forcefully shutdown. This should reduce the chance of unwanted failover behavior to pop-up within your model.
29 -
30 -//__Update at once or not__//
31 -This release fixes 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.
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 of 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.
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.
38 -
39 -== **Feedback items ** ==
40 -
41 -//__Make sure the message format can be viewed without "Start editing"__//
42 -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.
43 -
44 -//__Various styling improvements in the flow testing functionality__//
45 -Various smaller styling improvements have been added to the flow testing functionality to improve the overall user experience. For a complete list and more details please check out the release notes.
