5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have crossed our t's and dotted our i's on the release properties functionality that will impact the day to day life of every user working within the platform. The focus of the release blog will consequently also be on this subject. On top of that we have several additional smaller feedback item coming from our hackathon efforts that are now released to you.
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.

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.

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.

19 -== ** Deploy Architecture - Apply To Environment improvements ** ==
20 -As of this release, we will show you a list of all changes about to be changed once you press "Apply to the environment" in Deploy Architecture. This will make it clearer for users, especially those working in teams, what will change when pressing this button.

22 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@201-release-blog--apply-to-environment-example.png]]
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.
23 23  
24 -== ** Breadcrumb navigation in eMagiz ** ==
25 -This release introduces the "breadcrumb" navigation in certain parts of eMagiz. This will mostly be noticed and impact the Create phase when you check out your transformation or system message on the flow level. Apart from there, the navigation is implemented consistently across the portal for a unified look and feel.
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.

27 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@201-release-blog--breadcrumb-navigation-example.png]]
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}}

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.
