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 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.

7 +== **Mandatory Cloud Template Upgrade - Next-generation models ** ==
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 +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 -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.
11 +== **Feedback Items** ==
12 12  
13 -The two "dynamic" alerts we have added mimic the alerting on queue level we already offer to the community.
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.

15 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@197-release-blog--new-alerting-options.png]]
16 +{{info}}Note that when no problem is found, the migration process of that runtime will start automatically.{{/info}}
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.
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.

19 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@196-release-blog--alert-config-example.png]]
21 +//__Show values on the runtime level in Deploy Architecture__//
22 +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.
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.
24 +{{info}}To get to the values we use different calculation methods per type of runtime, as certain runtime types have various reasons for existence.
25 +* JMS - The number of queues in the active release.
26 +* Messaging Container - The number of messaging integrations in the active release.
27 +* Messaging Connector - The number of messaging integrations related to this system in the active release.
28 +* API Gateway Container - The number of operations in the active release.
29 +* Event Streaming Container - The number of event processors in the active release.

31 +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}}

25 -== **3rd generation improvements** ==
33 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
26 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.
35 +//__Gain the ability again to configure certificates in Deploy Architecture again__//
36 +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.
29 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.
38 +//__Ensure that differing container configurations deploy the correct configuration__//
39 +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.
32 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.
41 +//__Remove queurying options in Manage__//
42 +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.
35 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.

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.
