5		-**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on improving various aspects of our home. Among others we have improved the logging, alerting, and security of our next-generation architecture. On top of that we have improved the inner workings of the store and the certificate management for those of us using the Event Streaming pattern.
	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		-//__Enhanced overview of the HTTP Statistics__//
10		-As of now all resources that have been called atleast once since deploying them will now show up in the left-bottom graph of the HTTP Statistics. This will make it easier to see whether a particular operation was called within a timeframe. On top of that it makes comparing data on various operations easier. In here you can also filter on one (by pressing the + icon) or more by clicking on the filter icon. In case you want to sort the table in a different manner you can click on the name of the column on which you want to sort.
	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.

12		-//__Reason why runtime cannot start is now in the vast majority of cases reported back__//
13		-In this release, we have improved the way we report failures during startup of runtimes. This will ensure that it becomes much easier to pinpoint what went wrong upon startup.
	11	+== **Feedback Items** ==
14	14
15		-{{info}}Note that this fix is part of a new runtime image for the next-generation runtimes. The release notes of this can be found [[here>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.WebHome||target="blank"]]{{/info}}
	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.
16	16
17		-//__Forced congestion control__//
18		-To reduce the number of repeating mails within a 10 minute window we have now forced congestion control on all alerts generated via the platform.
	16	+{{info}}Note that when no problem is found, the migration process of that runtime will start automatically.{{/info}}
19	19
20		-//__Unused images are cleaned up__//
21		-This release improves the way in which images are kept. To avoid a lot of old and unused images on our systems and our systems we now (on default) cleanup old images that are not used anymore. Should you wish to keep the images and manually remove them on your own server you can deactivate this behavior per "Deploy machine" step in your deployment plan.
	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.
22	22
23		-//__Improved rollup and storage of metrics when running an event streaming solution__//
24		-To improve the stability of the Manage phase and, in particular, the metrics when zooming out on the provided information, we have made some structural changes that support this user functionality better.
	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.
25	25
26		-{{warning}} Due to this change, the platform will remove data collected before the release date in the upcoming weeks. This process will be finished at the beginning of July. From then on, all data before the 9th of June will no longer be visible. As users generally do not look back this far back in time, we consider this an acceptable trade-off. {{/warning}}
	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.
27	27
28		-== **Store Improvements** ==
	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.
29	29
30		-//__Improved importing behavior for specific use cases__//
31		-Before, it could happen that a certain placeholder that contained an asterisk were imported incorrectly. This has now been fixed to ensure that the correct import behavior is experienced by our users.
	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.
32	32
33		-//__Fixed bug in creating a message mapping on top of an imported system message__//
34		-It is now possbile to create a message mapping to an imported system message from the store.
	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}}
35	35
36		-== **Event Streaming - Certificate Management** ==
	39	+== **Bug Fixes** ==
37	37
38		-//__Expired certification notification__//
39		-As of now we have functionality in place that will inform you (and us) when a client certificate of an Event Streaming user is going to expire within the upcoming three months. This way you can take action early on and report back that the update was succesfull so we can revoke the expiring client certificate accordingly. If you want specific information on this please reach out to us at [[productmanagement@emagiz.com>>mailto:academy@emagiz.com]].
	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.
40	40
	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.
	46	+
	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.
	49	+
	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.

43	43	As always, this is a gentle reminder to ask questions via the Q&A forum. The Q&A forum is available in the eMagiz iPaaS portal, so we can all benefit from the knowledge within the community. For some inspiration, take a look at these forum answers:
