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.
5 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on a lot of things that are unfortanetly not quite ready to be released. As a result the ouput of this release is limited. Having said that we still bring some key improvements in the Deploy and Manage phase that would make life much easier.

7 -== **Start/Stop Flows** ~*~* ==
7 +== **Next generation improvements and bug fixes** ==
8 8  
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}}
9 +//__Enhanced right-hand view within Deployment Plan context__//
10 +When executing your deployment plan we will show specific log entries of the info category that indicate that a container (i.e. runtime) has started up correctly. On top of that we show the warnings and errors in this overview.
10 10  
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 +{{info}}Note that when the JMS container gets restarted connection errors in the logs are a normal thing to witness so keep your eyes peeled for the startup logging on JMS level to gain confidence in the deployment.{{/info}}

13 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@192-release-blog--start-stop-flows-context-menu.png]]
14 +//__Improved timeout settings when deploying__//
15 +To avoid mismatches between various parts of the infrastructure we have improved the timeout configuration on certain deployment plan steps to reduce the chance that these mismatches occur.
14 14  
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 +{{info}}Note that this fix is part of a new runtime image for the current-generation runtimes. The release notes of this can be found [[here>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.WebHome||target="blank"]]{{/info}}
16 16  
17 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@192-release-blog--start-stop-flows-pop-up-menu.png]]
19 +//__Detailed HTTP Statistics now show user info in specific additional cases__//
20 +To solve a bug for a specific client we changed the logic to show the user info (i.e. first part of the api key) in a specific implementation just as we already do in our standard implementations.
18 18  
19 -{{info}}Only in "Start Editing" mode can you start and stop specific flows{{/info}}
22 +{{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}}

21 -== **Manage overview Event Streaming** ~*~* ==
24 +//__Improved loading speed of Manage Dashboard__//
25 +This release improves the loading speed with which all the dashboards in Manage are shown to the user. This will enhance the user experience within the Manage phase.
22 22  
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.
27 +== **Store Improvements** ==
24 24  
25 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@192-release-blog--event-streaming-overview-manage.png]]
29 +//__Importing in Design is improved__//
30 +We have solved a bug that could cause issues when importing something in Design while the accompanying integration was not yet in Create.
26 26  
27 -== **Feedback items ** ==
32 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
28 28  
29 -We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
34 +//__Deprecated reminder pop-up removed__//
35 +We have removed a reminder pop-up on a pending cloud template as it was deprecated and could cause issues when using it in communication with other systems.
30 30  
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.
37 +//__Improved selection area in Flow Designer__//
38 +When working on a large flow you can now select specific areas easily while you are scrolled down furhter down the flow.
33 33  
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.
40 +//__Improved Kafka settings_//
41 +For all flows that use a Kafka related component within the flow designer we will run a migration to update every single one of them to the new best practices and create a new flow version for them.
36 36  
37 -{{warning}}Make sure to update your deployment plan accordingly to ensure that the preparation step is not forgotten{{/warning}}
43 +{{info}}We stronly encourage all users that use these components to update to these new best practices as they increase stability of the cluster and throughput of the solution{{/info}}
38 38  
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.
41 -
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.
