5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** We have done much work for state generation, so that you can derive more information from your data! Examples are enrichment, aggregation, change detection and duplicate detection. State generation functionality is only accessible for models with an add-on state generation license. Next to state generation, several improvements regarding the alignment of components have been made. Moreover, performance improvements and bug fixes have been implemented. Lastly, a change in the metrics storage duration has been performed.
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 -== **State Generation** ==
7 +== **Mandatory Cloud Template Upgrade - Next-generation models ** ==
8 8  
9 -//__New components__//
10 -The following components have been added:
11 -* Aggregator: reverse of the splitter, used to combine multiple messages into a single one.
12 -* Infinispan metadata outbound channel adapter: used to (temporarily) store metadata, which can be used to enrich messages, or make decisions in filters or scripts.
13 -* Content enricher: used to add properties to the payload of messages, similar to what the header enricher can do for headers.
14 -* Duplicate detector: support object used to detect duplicate messages for a certain key on an inbound channel of a flow component. Duplicates can be marked or discarded.
15 -* Infinispan support objects, supporting the aggregator, metadata outbound channel adapter and content enricher.
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.
16 16  
17 -//__SpEL functions & JSON__//
18 -Added SpEL functions for:
19 -* Encoding & decoding Base64, Hex and hmac.
20 -* Date retrieval (currentDateTime, currentEpochMilli, currentEpochSecond).
21 -* Date conversion (DateTime to Epoch, Epoch to DateTime, DateTime formatter and DateTime parser).
11 +== **Feedback Items** ==
22 22  
23 -Added support for SpEL property accessors for XML and JSON, meaning that you can read message payloads in SpEL expressions easily. For example, to retrieve the value for 'id' in the following JSON String: `{"id":"123"}`, this SpEL expression suffices: `payload.id`.
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.
24 24  
25 -Added support for `#JsonPath` usage in SpEL expressions.
16 +{{info}}Note that when no problem is found, the migration process of that runtime will start automatically.{{/info}}
26 26  
27 -//__New image version 2.0.0__//
28 -The above functionalities are features of the new image version 2.0.0. Important to note is that the library used for Code Mappings has been changed. Changed the library used for Code Mappings. Any customer with Gen3 runtimes and code mappings is required to reset their infra flows prior to deploying on image 2.0.0.
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.
29 29  
30 -//__Component pages__//
31 -Pages to add the new components have been created. Forms have been created nicely with proper help texts. The EHCache cache manager has been removed.
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.
32 32  
33 -== **Metrics Storage Duration** ==
34 -Manage - Monitoring: We will change the retention of monitoring data of different environments. For minute level data, it will be kept for test, acceptance and production environments for 5, 7 and 30 days respectively. Then the minute level data will be reduced to hour level data then will be stored for test, acceptance and production for 3, 6 and 12 months respectively.
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.

36 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-207-aligned-state-metrics-storage.png]]
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}}

38 -== **Feedback Items** ==
39 -
40 -//__Import from store__//
41 -Design - Message Mapping: The button 'Import from Store' will directly open the store instead of showing a pop asking whether the store should be opened.
42 -
43 -//__Save and cancel buttons__//
44 -The Save and Cancel buttons have been placed slightly further apart from each other to avoid misclicking.
45 -
46 -//__User session times__//
47 -Manage - Monitoring: The user session times for 3rd generation runtime dashboards have been extended, so that the user is not thrown out of the model when using the Manage phase for longer than an hour.

51 51  == **Bug Fixes** ==
52 52  
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.
53 53  
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.
54 54  
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.

57 57  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:
