5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** We have been hard at work bolstering our offering concerning the upcoming rollout of our new architecture stack. Next to that, we have made several small updates as this release contained a complete revamp of the Manage phase. Please take a moment to read the below carefully and work with the new flow designer as soon as possible to familiarize yourself with this one.
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, we have invested our effort to improve the performance and experience of our platform in the Deploy phase. Next to that, we did several bug fixes, not only for the Deploy phase, but also for the Store. Lastly, we made some changes to the alerts that you may be receiving.

7 -==**Audit trail User Management**==
8 -Since the introduction of the API Gateway and Event Streaming patterns in eMagiz, the notion of users and roles have been added to the platform. In the User Management section in Deploy you will find the overview of the users and roles configured in your model. With this release we have also added the history tab to this page in which the platform registers the changes made in Users & Roles. At the moment when the user presses the Apply to environment button, the changes between the previous history entry and this action are registered in this section. The popup that is displayed when pressing Apply to environment has been expanded with the list of entries that will be added to this History section.

8 +== **Alerts** ==

12 -==**Next Generation Monitoring & Alerting engine**==
13 -In the recent sprints, we have completed our alerting & monitoring engine for our new runtime architecture. Effectively that means that we are now using State Generation components inside this architecture, and all error messages, runtime metrics and logging are now passing through this engine. All of our regular Manage phase screens have been updated to point to the new storage locations.
14 -
15 -* In the Manage phase we have introduced proper means to toggle between data of the current and the new monitoring stack (transition to the new runtime can be a runtime by runtime approach).
16 -* We have also released and described the new Manage phase graphs in [[Release blog 183>>https://docs.emagiz.com/bin/view/Main/Release%20Information/Release%20Blogs/Rainbow%20World||target="blank"]].
17 -* In the new architecture all error messages are automatically send to the eMagiz monitoring & alerting stack, which means that these flow components are no longer required. During migration these will be removed. In case custom error handling is required, these components are made available in the Create Store and will point to the current error flow (which serves a new purpose from then onwards)
18 -* Hosted SOAP Webservices can be migrated to the new architecture which removes the need to use the Jetty component, and introduces the request layer as root element in the System Message. This removes the need for custom XSD to validate incoming request to the SOAP webservice. The new HTTP Statistics page can be leveraged to review SOAP traffic as well.
19 -* The Docker Cloud templates are now also connected to the eMagiz support infrastructure providing cloud instance level alarms

22 -=== **Improvements** ===
23 -
24 -* Performance Deployment plan
25 -When running a Deployment plan on a large environment, the browser would consume a significant amount of CPU. This has been improved with this release.
26 -
27 -* Flow Designer updates
28 -We have added an icon to identify a Queued channel which are mostly found in entry flows that use the h2 bridge. Furthermore, the display of wiretaps and annotations can be copied now. Next to that some small UI improvements where made.
29 -
30 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@185 - Release blog 2.png]]
31 -
32 -* Store
33 -We have fixed several smaller Store import issues to improve the user experience.
34 -
10 +//__Topic approaching max size alert__//
11 +The alert ‘topic approaching maximum size’ has been temporarily disabled due to a high number of false positives.
12 +
13 +//__Missing metrics alert__//
14 +We solved an issue where the ‘missing metrics’ alert did not always contain the full container name.
15 +
16 +== **Feedback Items** ==
17 +
18 +//__Improved release build process__//
19 +When a new release will be activated, no longer all containers will be rebuild but only affected containers will be rebuild. This should decrease the time for a release to be ready to be deployed.
20 +
21 +//__Container version overview__//
22 +Due to the improved build process for containers, the release versions and container versions will not longer be the same anymore. Therefore we introduce a way where you can look up to see which container versions are linked to a specific release. This can help you to identify if your containers that are running have the right version according to the release.
23 +
24 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-210-deployment-delights-container-overview.png]]
25 +
26 +//_Improved deployment process_//
27 +The improved release build process, as mentioned above, brings another major improvement to the platform. Because container versions will not be updated regularly we can identify during a deployment which container should get a new container version. Only the ones that should get a new version will be deployed and restarted, all other containers will not go down and keep running. This decreases the deployment time and improves the performance.
28 +
29 +//__Rebuilding of images__//
30 +Changing the list of flows that should run on a container will now trigger the rebuilding of images.
31 +
32 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
33 +
34 +//__Runtime metrics processing__//
35 +The collection and publishing of runtime metrics is no longer synchronized across containers, which improves their processing.
36 +
37 +//__Deployment plan__//
38 +We solved a bug where a deployment step in the execution of the deployment plan could randomly get stuck.
39 +
40 +//__View all store items__//
41 +An issue has been fixed where it was not possible to load more store items in the left panel in the Create phase Flow Designer.
42 +
43 +//__Out of memory behavior__//
44 +We improved the out of memory behavior of runtimes. Runtimes will now always restart when an out of memory error occurs.
45 +
46 +//__Max fetch size__//
47 +In the Flow Designer, we improved the help text of the advanced option of ‘max fetch size’ for the Mail Inbound Adapter component to better describe how that option affects the component's behavior.
