5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on improving our next-generation architecture and introduced alerting functionality on top of our event streaming pattern based on user feedback. Furthermore, several smaller feedback items and bugs have been resolved with this release. So without further ado, let us dive into all we have to offer.
5 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** Our release of the Private store functionality characterizes this release. This functionality allows some users to export content to a private store that is only accessible within the company and could be published to the public store of eMagiz. On top of that, we resolved some of the limitations on the 3rd generation runtime. Furthermore, some minor fixes and beta features will be released to the community.

7 -== **Event streaming alerting** ==
7 +== **Private Store** ==
8 +On top of our general store, in which eMagiz currently publishes Store content relevant to both the Design and Create phases of eMagiz, we have added the private store functionality. This store works precisely the same as the general store. However, only users belonging to the same company as the exporter can import the store content (after it is approved).
8 8  
9 -This release expands our alerting functionality into the event streaming pattern. As of now, one new "static" alert has been introduced for all clients (using event streaming), and two "dynamic" alerts have been introduced that you can configure yourself if there is a need for it.
10 +{{warning}}Other users can see the store content but are not able to import the store content. They will be notified to them when they try to do so.{{/warning}}
10 10  
11 -The "static" alert we have added raises an alert (and a subsequent email) when the actual topic size crosses the threshold of 80% of the configured maximum retention size on a topic. This alert provides insights into whether messages on it are deleted due to a size or time constraint. In cases where data is deleted, the topic was too full way before the messages should have been removed due to the retention hours constraint. This alert can indicate that messages might be deleted before consumer groups had the option to consume the messages.
12 +== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
12 12  
13 -The two "dynamic" alerts we have added mimic the alerting on the queue level we already offer to the community.
14 +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.
14 14  
15 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@197-release-blog--new-alerting-options.png]]
16 +//__SOAP and REST web services migration, including splitting them__//
17 +With this release, we have released the migration process that will allow you to migrate SOAP and REST web services to the 3rd generation runtime. At the same time, you can directly split the all-entry to eliminate that construction. A specific migration path for this will be published in the documentation portal.
16 16  
17 -The first new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once the number of messages on one (or more topics) is less than a certain number per defined time unit. So, for example, you can configure an alert once the number of messages placed on a topic called "Exception" is less than 15 messages within 5 minutes.
19 +//__Changing SSL settings for 3rd generation runtime models works__//
20 +As with the current runtime architecture, you can change the SSL settings if needed for a model running in the 3rd generation runtime.
18 18  
19 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@197-release-blog--alert-config-example.png]]
22 +//__Improved migration for JMS flows__//
23 +This release will improve the migration of JMS flows when migrating to the 3rd generation runtime.
20 20  
21 -The second new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once one (or more) consumer groups are more than X messages behind on one or more topics. The configuration of this is comparable to what we saw before.
25 +{{warning}}If you already migrated your JMS flow, you should execute a "Reset" action on the JMS level to get these changes in your model{{/warning}}
22 22  
23 -For more information on the generic way of working surrounding alerting, please check out this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Crash Course.Crash Course Platform.crashcourse-platform-manage-alerting-gen3||target="blank"]] and this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Novice.Alerting.novice-alerting-dynamic-alerting.WebHome||target="blank"]].
27 +//__Removed the ability to add "Debug components" to a flow running in the 3rd generation runtime architecture__//
28 +As of this release, you can no longer add debug components on a flow already migrated to the 3rd generation runtime. This functionality will not work in the 3rd generation runtime and would break your flow.
24 24  
25 -== **3rd generation improvements** ==
30 +//__Deployment plan is updated correctly when completly migrated to the 3rd generation runtime architecture__//
31 +We have fixed a bug that generated an incorrect default deployment plan once you were fully migrated to the 3rd generation runtime.
26 26  
27 -//__Increased grace period for shutdown__//
28 -In this release, we have increased a container's grace period to shut down before it is forcefully shut down. This should reduce the chance of unwanted failover behavior within your model.
33 +//__Correct property generation for Event Streaming flows using the 3rd generation runtime architecture__//
34 +With this release, the properties generated for Event Streaming flows running in the 3rd generation runtime are configured correctly to mimic the ones in the image.
29 29  
30 -//__Update at once or not__//
31 -This release fixes and re-introduces the option to execute your actions on the eMagiz per zone or all at once when running in a double-lane Docker setup.
36 +//__Added "Reset" functionality__//
37 +With this release, a new functionality has been added for 3rd generation runtimes that allows you to combine several steps into one action, called "Reset runtime." The effect of this action is the same as it currently is in the legacy runtime.
32 32  
33 -//__Improved user feedback while executing a deployment plan__//
34 -This release introduces additional feedback to the user when the deployment plan is executed. This is noticeable when a step cannot be executed properly. The relevant information about why this cannot be executed is shown to the user. This way, they can take this information and act upon it instead of assuming everything went well.
39 +== **Feedback items ** ==
35 35  
36 -//__Improved auto-healing when running in a hybrid situation__//
37 -In situations where you run in a hybrid situation (i.e., partly next-gen and partly the current generation), we have improved the auto-healing functionality in case an "out of memory" appears on a runtime running in the current generation but on a next-generation architecture.
41 +We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
38 38  
39 -//__Improved rollup and storage of metrics when running your solution in the next generation archticture__//
40 -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.
43 +//__Improved naming convention on Store related pages__//
44 +We have improved various display names using the merge functionality within our store offering.
41 41  
42 -{{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 June. From then on, all data before the 12th of May 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}}
46 +//__Update security protocols for our internal architecture__//
47 +Parts of our internal infrastructure (i.e., docs.emagiz.com) have been updated to adhere to the latest security standards.
43 43  
44 -== **Feedback items ** ==
49 +//__Improved read-only description for "if exists" constructions in Transformations__//
50 +To make it clear what the "if exists" check does while not being in "Start Editing" mode, we have improved the description so users without edit rights or without wanting to enter the "Start Editing" mode can read and interpret what the check does.
45 45  
46 -//__Make sure the message format can be viewed without "Start editing"__//
47 -With this release, we have ensured that when you navigate to Design -> System message, you can see the message format (i.e., XML, JSON, or EDI) without entering the "Start Editing" mode.
48 48  
49 -//__Various styling improvements in the flow testing functionality__//
50 -Various minor styling improvements have been added to the flow testing functionality to improve the overall user experience. Please check out the release notes for a complete list and more details.
53 +== **Bug fixes ** ==
51 51  
55 +//__Decent validation feedback when not filling in the property value__//
56 +We have fixed the validation feedback you get when not filling in the property value using the "Check properties" functionality.
57 +
58 +//__Incorrect resource locations__//
59 +We have fixed several instances where the resource location was not generated correctly in the 3rd generation runtime.
60 +
61 +//__Apply to environment in User Management performance improvement__//
62 +We have improved the performance of updating User Management on your environment. This way, the update functionality is more stable and faster.
