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.
5 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last couple of weeks, we worked hard on building several essential things that will be released later this Q. On top of that, we finished additional features for our 3rd generation runtime that give you chirurgical precision when doing maintenance on a model. Among the other features, we have a new event streaming graph and general updates to our platform.

7 +== **Start/Stop Flows** ~*~* ==
8 8  
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.
9 +{{warning}}Note that depending on the alert, this functionality will only work when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime{{/warning}}
10 10  
11 -== **Feedback Items** ==
11 +To enhance your options when running into problems or when maintaining your solution in a Production environment, we have added a new feature to our Deploy phase called "Start/Stop Flows." You can access this functionality via the "Deploy Architecture" overview in Deploy. On the runtime level, you can open the context menu and select the "Start/Stop Flows" option.
12 12  
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.
13 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@192-release-blog--start-stop-flows-context-menu.png]]
15 15  
16 -{{info}}Note that when no problem is found, the migration process of that runtime will start automatically.{{/info}}
15 +After selecting the option, eMagiz will open a pop-up where you can stop and start the starting point of each flow deployed on that runtime. This effect is that the flow will process no new messages, but the flow will still process all remaining messages after stopping the flow. To prevent a flow, you select a flow and press the Stop button. To start it again, press Start.
17 17  
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.
17 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@192-release-blog--start-stop-flows-pop-up-menu.png]]
20 20  
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.
19 +{{info}}Only in "Start Editing" mode can you start and stop specific flows{{/info}}
23 23  
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.
21 +== **Manage overview Event Streaming** ~*~* ==
26 26  
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.
23 +To enhance the observability of your event streaming solution while running in the 3rd generation runtime architecture, we have added a new feature to our Manage phase called "Event streaming statistics." You can access this functionality via the "Monitoring" menu in Manage. Then, you can see metadata information on all your topics by clicking on the "Event streaming statistics" overview. Among others, you can see whether data is consumed, on which topic much data is produced, and whether consumers are lagging in consuming data.
29 29  
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.

36 36  
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}}
27 +== **Feedback items ** ==
38 38  
39 -== **Bug Fixes** ==
29 +We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
40 40  
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.
31 +//__Topic configuration calculation__//
32 +With this release, we have simplified the configuration of settings on the topic level to enforce certain best practices within the portal and simultaneously make it easier to configure topics.
43 43  
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.
34 +//__Make preparation step in deployment plan visible__//
35 +For deployment on the 3rd generation runtime to work, the portal needs some preparation work. We have now made this step explicit and part of the deployment plan.
46 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.
37 +{{warning}}Make sure to update your deployment plan accordingly to ensure that the preparation step is not forgotten{{/warning}}
49 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.
39 +//__3rd generation runtime debugger feedback__//
40 +We have improved the user experience of the 3rd generation runtime debugger with this release by solving various feedback items we noticed in the first adoptions of the functionality.
52 52  
42 +//__No "Shift key" needed anymore to select multiple items in the flow designer__//
43 +As of now, you do not have to hold your "Shift key" when you want to select multiple items in the flow designer. This will make it easier to select parts of flows.
44 +
45 +//__User Management synchronization now happens in one step__//
46 +With this release, we have updated the synchronization process between Design and Deploy concerning User Management. When you press the "Transfer from design" button, both Users and Roles will be synchronized.
