--**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.
++**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** This release is characterized mainly by our efforts to bolster our 3rd generation runtime and all the interactions with it. Furthermore, some smalller fixes and beta features will be released to the community.
--== **State Generation** ==
++== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
--//__New components__//
--The following components have been added:
--* Aggregator: reverse of the splitter, used to combine multiple messages into a single one.
--* Infinispan metadata outbound channel adapter: used to (temporarily) store metadata, which can be used to enrich messages, or make decisions in filters or scripts.
--* Content enricher: used to add properties to the payload of messages, similar to what the header enricher can do for headers.
--* 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.
--* Infinispan support objects, supporting the aggregator, metadata outbound channel adapter and content enricher.
++This release will introduce various improvements for our 3rd generation runtime. Below you will find the most noteworthy improvements we made to the 3rd generation runtime and the interaction with it.
--//__SpEL functions & JSON__//
--Added SpEL functions for:
--* Encoding & decoding Base64, Hex and hmac.
--* Date retrieval (currentDateTime, currentEpochMilli, currentEpochSecond).
--* Date conversion (DateTime to Epoch, Epoch to DateTime, DateTime formatter and DateTime parser).
++//__Migration of JMS backup configuration improved__//
--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`.
++//__Prechecks on Upgrade option made available for 3rd generation runtime__//
--Added support for `#JsonPath` usage in SpEL expressions.
++//__Autogenerated exits can be deployed at once__//
--//__New image version 2.0.0__//
--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.
++//__Code mapping functionality available on 3rd generation runtime__//
--//__Component pages__//
--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.
++//__Improved the performance of deploying or activating a release__//
++//__Failing runtimes won't be restarted indefinetly anymore__//
--== **Metrics Storage Duration** ==
--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.
++== **Exportable Release Audit** ~* ==
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-207-aligned-state-metrics-storage.png]]
++On top of that, we will also launch a new Beta feature to the community that allows you to export an audit document of your (Production) release.
--== **Feedback Items** ==
++[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@187-release-blog--flow-version-restore.png]]
--//__Alerting manual pause__//
--A few releases ago we changed the behavior of alerting in the deployment plan. Now each time when a deployment plan is executed the alerting will be automatically re-enabled when the deployer closes the deployment plan or closes the web browser. The majority of the users are happy with the new behavior, but there are some use cases that you do not want start the alerting immediately. With this release, if alerting has been paused manually, this will not be activated automatically after a release deployment.
++{{warning}}Note that the following restrictions apply when exporting an audit document:
++  * Changes made on definition and transformation level are **not** restored
++  * You will **not** be able to restore to any flow version that was created before October 17th, 2022
++  * You will **not** be able to restore your flow to the original version created by eMagiz. You can use the reset function if you want this state back
++  * Your restored flow version will **not** be automatically committed to Deploy{{/warning}}
--//__Ordering of graphs in Manage__//
--The graphs in Manage are now ordered according to importance. This means that runtime statistics are sorted by "Process CPU usage" (highest first), queue statistics are sorted by "Messages in queue" (highest first), and HTTP statistics are sorted by "Unsuccessful requests" (highest first).
++== **Feedback items ** ==
--//__UTC times in Grafana panels__//
--All Grafana panels now show UTC times, which are normally used in eMagiz, instead of local (browser) time zones. This way, it is easier to match graphs with logging events or alerts.
++We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
--//__Update flow designer version__//
--The framework used in the flow designer has been updated, improving performance.
++//__Data Sink Refactor__//
++We have made some infrastructural changes to how data sink messages are stored and can be retrieved from the portal. Should there be changes needed on your end we will contact your seperately.
--//__Carwash track TLS versions in logging__//
--A new logging feature will be released, enabling us to make better choices in deprecating old encryption standards.
++//__Improved naming convention on Store related pages__//
++We have improved various display names to ensure that it is clear from the naming that store content can be implemented in all integration patterns.
--//__Moving channels in the flow designer__//
--Moving already attached channels in the flow designer has been made sligthly easier.
++//__Press "Enter" to search on multiple pages__//
++In our Daemon Switch release we added functionality that allowed you to press **Enter** to search on the property overview page. With this release we have added this functionality to many more pages across the portal. The complete list is as follows
--//__Topic sizes description change__//
--In the change description (and History) when altering the topic size of a topic the new and old value were switched around creating confusion, this has been resolved.

--//__Password change notification__//
--When an account password change request is made, even when this fails, a mail is sent to the account owner to inform the owner about the action.
--
--//__Password comparison__//
--When changing a password, it is compared to a list of known database breaches for security. A warning is shown when the password corresponds with a password in the database.
--
--//__Inactive user alerting__//
--Inactivated users are now removed from all alert settings (included “disabled“ settings) to avoid undesirable notifications.
--
--//__Alphabetical sorting on user level in HTTP statistics__//
--Variables in the 3rd generation runtimes HTTP statistics detail pages are now sorted case insensitive.
--
--
--== **Bug Fixes** ==
--
--//__Flow designer styling__//
--The styling of the flow designer's left component panel has been restructured, solving a rare bug which would break the styling of certain functionalities.
--
--//__Partial search for messages__//
--It is now possible to search on messages partially in Manage Monitoring. For example, a search for Uptime can be done by searching for "up" "time" "ptim".
--
--//__Disk usage after cloud template update__//
--In the last cloud template update there was an issue with disk performance. This has been resolved in this release. You can manually upgrade your cloud template, or rely on automatic updates.
--
--//__Error handling migration__//
--If there is no custom error handling, when migrating to Gen3, the error channel to “errorChannel” is only created for the first inbound in an entry flow. This has been fixed by adding a migration step, where we set the error channel of all inbounds in a flow to “errorChannel” if the custom error handling is set to false.
