--**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** It has been a while since our last deployment on the 9th of December. As a result we have finished up a lot of new improvements to our 3rd generation runtime offering and fixed a variety of annoying bugs as well as some small improvements. This release is characterized by the major steps we took to release several major features on our 3rd generation runtime among which are the queue browser and message redelivery functionality.
++**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have work hard on improving our next generation architecture and introduced the "live" mode within our flow testing functionality. Furthermore there are loads of 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.
--== **Queue Browser** == ~*~*
++== **"Live" mode on flow testing** ==
--{{warning}}Note that this functionality only works when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime{{/warning}}
++With this release we bring an improved version of the flow testing functionality. As of now you will have the option to switch between "live" and "mock" mode will running a flow test. The "mock" mode is the mode you are used to from us. In this mode all external communication is mocked by the system and only the functional process can be tested.
--To enhance the observability of your integration landscape while running in the 3rd generation runtime architecture we have added a new feature to our Manage phase called the "Queue browser". You can access this functionality via the "Explore" menu option in Manage. With the help of the queue browser you can, as the name suggests, browse your queue.
++By switching to "live" mode you can not only test the functional process but also the communication to the external system. You can do so by entering the "edit" mode of the flow test and toggle between "mock" and "live" mode. When doing so eMagiz will show you the following pop-up stressing the consequences of your actions.
--To do so, we offer two options within this functionality. We have the Explore function and we have the Wiretap function. When selecting a queue and opting for the Explore option you get a live view of what data is currently present on the queue. When selecting the Wiretap functionality you automatically wiretap your queue and are presented with copies (on a special queue) of your actual message that pass through the queue from the moment you pressed the Wiretap button.
++[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@196-release-blog--live-flow-testing-pop-up.png]]
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-overview.png]]
++Once confirmed you will see that the user interface now indicates that the endpoint is in "live" mode.
--After selecting the queue and choosing the option eMagiz will show you the list of messages (oldest first) that are currently on the queue (Explore option) or that passed the queue since the moment you activate the option (Wiretap option). For each message you have various options at your disposal.
++[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@196-release-blog--live-flow-testing-result.png]]
--* Delete the message from the queue (Explore option)
--  ** This means throwing away live data which can be helpful in a test or acceptance environment where you inadvertedly put a lot of messages on a queue.
--* Clear message from the wiretap queue (Wiretap option)
--  ** Once you are done with the analysis of a certain message in the wiretap functionality you can clear it from the overview so it does not clutter the view anymore
--* Refresh messages list (both options)
--  ** By pressing this button you can refresh the list of messages that are displayed to you. Note that the list is sorted in such a way that the oldest messages are shown first
--* Save as test message
--  ** By pressing this button you can save the message and use it in our flow testing functionality in Create. Note that we link the message to the corresponding flow if we can. Should we not be able to do so we link the message to your model so you can still use it in the flow testing functionality.
--* Download
--  ** By pressing this button you can download the message and use it outside of the tooling should that be needed.
++== **3rd generation improvements** ==
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-explore-overview.png]]
++//__Event Streaming statistics completion__//
++In this release, we have updated the retrieval of data to ensure that for all models, all environments and all topics this data can be shown to the user so they can properly monitor the environment.
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-wiretap-overview.png]]
++//__Deployments on next generation architecture__//
++This release fixes several smaller bugs and adds several improvements to the deployment process of the next generation architecture.
--== **Message Redelivery ** == ~*~*
++//__Clean queues option__//
++This release introduces an option for **admins** to clean queues that remained after a migration towards the next generation runtime architecture. This will make the overview of which queues are "problematic" a much more realistic overview.
--{{warning}}Note that this functionality only works when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime and the functionality is enabled for you environment.{{/warning}}
--
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--message-redelivery-overview.png]]
--
--Just as with our current offering we now offer our message redelivery functionality for our 3rd generation architecture. To enhance the user experience we have placed this functionality as well under the "Explore" option in Manage. When selecting the message redelivery option you will see all messages that are currently in need to be redelivered (as an error occurred).
--
--Just as in the current functionality you can select a specific message and retry (or delete) it. The same can be done for all messages at once. Following that you can still see the linked error message as you could before.
--
--On top of that we have added some additional functionality.
--
--* Search option
--  ** Original queue name
--  ** Original message ID (which can be found as a header called jms_messageid in the error message view)
--* Save as test message
--  ** By pressing this button you can save the message and use it in our flow testing functionality in Create.
--* Download
--  ** By pressing this button you can download the message and use it outside of the tooling should that be needed.

--== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
--
--This release will introduce various improvements for our 3rd generation runtime. Below you will find the most noteworthy enhancements we made to the 3rd generation runtime and its interaction with the portal.
--
--//__Define memory settings for on-premise runtimes from Deploy Architecture__//
--With this release, you are now able to define the memory settings (and therefore the memory limits) of your on-premise runtimes in the same manner as cloud runtimes. In all cases you can now define and change the memory settings via Deploy Architecture. In contrast to how these values are actualized for cloud runtimes you need to create a new release and deploy it to actualize the changes on-premise.
--
--//__Empty runtime feedback when deploying a release (or setting the release as active)__//
--To prevent that you are not being able to deploy a release to your environment due to a mismatch between what is in your release and in Deploy Architecture we have now added a feedback pop-up when deploying a release that notifies you for which runtimes there is a mismatch between your release and Deploy Architecture.
--
--//__Auto-fill namespaces for SOAP hosted webservices__//
--Based on your configuration in Design eMagiz will now auto-fill the namespace when you host a SOAP web service. This avoids any potential problems in validating messages.
--
--//__Updated H2 database setting__//
--As of this release, we have improved the configuration of our H2 databases that are used within eMagiz. This new setting will ensure that the runtime controls when the H2 database is shut down.
--
--{{warning}}If you already migrated your runtime, you should execute a "Reset" action on the infra flow to get these changes in your model{{/warning}}
--
--//__Runtime settings option added to context menu on runtime level Deploy Architecture__//
--As a replacement of the current HTTP settings context menu we have added a new menu item called runtime settings. On top of being able to configure your HTTP settings (which you need to define for a hosted web service) you now also can define whether the control bus needs to work for this runtime.
--
--//__Deploy Agent option added to context menu on machine level Deploy Architecture__//
--With this release, we have added a context menu item that allows user to deploy the agent that is needed to run your 3rd generation architecture on-premise. For more information on how to install this please check out this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Expert Level.Solution Architecture.expert-solution-architecture-onpremises-installguide.WebHome||target="blank"]]
--
--//__Performance improvement creating a release__//
--With this release, we have improved the performance of creating a release.
--
  == **Feedback items ** ==
--We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
++//__On-premise containers are started upon slot wakeup__//
++With this release, we have added additional functionality to models running in the next generation runtime architecture. With this improvement all on-premise containers are stopped when the cloud slot goes to sleep and are woken up once the slot is woken up in the morning.
--//__Sensitive information stored in properties is masked __//
--We have made how we display sensitive information across the portal in the same manner for various parts of the portal.
++//__See Fixed IP in Deploy Architecture__//
++To improve our cloud offerings' we now display the configured fixed IP on your cloud connectors. This will unlock you as the user to easily communicate this value to external parties without involvement on our end.
--//__Importing "Private" store content to which you do not have access__//
--We have improved the user feedback a user will get when trying to import a "Private" store item that is not available to the user.
++//__Resource path is shown to the user__//
++You can now, without downloading, see the resource path of a resource by viewing the metadata of the resource. You can do so by pressing the "eye" icon to view this information.
++//__Flow designer improvements__//
++With this release various improvements have been made to the flow designer. Among others we have improved the overview of what an "unused resource" is. You now have the option to define certain resources that are used but cannot be auto-detected by eMagiz to be an "used" resource to avoid confusion.
++//__Improved capabilities of a company contact__//
++With this release we have improved the capabilities of a company contact. As of now you can also add users to models belonging to subcompanies below your the company to which you are the company contact.
++
  == **Bug fixes ** ==
--//__Fix possibility that allowed you to break the system message when dealing with the "Order matters" functionality__//
--We have fixed the possibility you had that would break your system message upon validating it in Create when using the "Order matters" functionality.
++//__Optional API parameters are handled correctly__//
++Currently, eMagiz would create the wrong expression for handling optional API parameters. With this release we have improved the expression in such a way that all optional parameters are handled correctly out of the box.
--//__Synchronization of Event Streaming topic states__//
--We have fixed synchronization issues that could occur when several changes were executed on a model that uses a fast amount of topics.
++//__Without CDM rights nothing related to any data model can be edited anymore__//
++With this release, we have made sure that nothing related to any data model can be edited without having the proper rights.
--//__Copy and paste default support objects__//
--With this release you can now copy and paste components without having to worry that additional support objects that already exist in your target flow are copied over and over into the same flow.
++//__Improved sorting of Design and Deploy archticture__//
++With this release, we now ensure that both Design and Deploy architecture are sorted in the same manner to avoid confusion when quickly switching between both views.
--//__Fix editability of properties when importing store items__//
--With this release you can once again change property names upon importing a store item.

  == **Fancy Forum Answers** ==
  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:
