--**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have focused on wrapping up the previous quarter and starting the new one. When this happens, we go silent for a few weeks to plan for the upcoming quarter during our PI rituals. This time we added the famous "Hackathon" to the end of the PI week so we could start the Easter break with excellent spirit after solving several smaller feedback items and bugs reported by you. Several of those stories will be included in this and the upcoming release. On top of that, we introduce various improvements to our API Gateway pattern and our 3rd generation runtime architecture. Subsequently, we will release a new runtime image supporting the multiple improvements.
++**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** We have done .....
--== **Release properties** ==**
++== **Next Generation Architecture Default** ==
++With this release, the next generation architecture will become the default. New models will use this generation as default.
--With this release we bring an improved version of the release properties functionality. With the introduction of the 3rd generation runtime the way properties can be updated and when they need to be available for the solution to start up has changed compared to the current runtime architecture. More on that can be found [[here>>Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target= "blank"]].
++[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-next-gen-default.png]]
--As of now you can not only view all property values related to a specific release by pressing the wrench icon. You can also create what we call a "property release" on each of the three environment that allows you to quickly change one or more property values and deploy the changes to your environment. When deploying such a release eMagiz will check on which runtimes the properties are used and only execute the deploy actions for the machines to which said runtime(s) belong(s).
++== **Cloud Template R11 - Single Lane** ==
++This release introduces a new cloud template for all our customers running in a single-lane setup on the next generation architecture. This cloud template introduces faster machine boot up and improved auto-healing. The complete release notes on the cloud template can be found here
--{{video attachment="release-blog-easter-party--release-properties.mp4" reference="Main.Videos.Microlearning.WebHome"/}}
++== **Cloud Template R13 - Double Lane** ==
--{{info}}The following considerations need to be taken into account when using this functionality:
--* This functionality works from the moment one runtime is running on the 3rd generation runtime architecture
--* This functionality can only change property values. Functional changes need a seperate release that needs to be promoted
--* In comparison to standard releases a property release can be created on each environment (as the property value is linked to a specific environment).
--*{{/info}}
--== **API improvements** ==
++== **Feedback Items** ==
--//__Improved auto-generated error handling__//
--When you create a new operation in your API gateway, eMagiz will now automatically generate the correct schemas, HTTP codes, and examples for this operation based on industry standards.
++//__Unused properties overview__//
++In Deploy > Releases, it is now possible to see all unused properties of an environment. This can be viewed by clicking the three dots in the Create phase section. Here it is also possible to quickly delete all or a selection of those unused properties. Unused properties are properties that are:
++* Not used by any runtime that is in the Create phase release.
++* Not required by a flow that is in the Create phase release.
++* If used as nested property, none of its parent properties (checks recursively) are in the Create phase release.
--//__Switch default message format__//
--We have improved the logic when you switch the message format of your gateway message from XML to JSON or vice versa. As a result, the Swagger file will be changed accordingly. Once you update the relevant flow in Create and deploy the solution, the Swagger UI will automatically match the expected result.
++//__Send build requests asynchronously__//
++The step in the deployment plan concerning the preparation of runtime images will now be executed more quickly and reliably.
--//__Re-using elements in gateway message__//
--This release improves how the examples and schemas in Swagger and the Flow Testing functionality are generated when certain elements repeatedly appear in different places within one specific gateway message.
++//__Queue explorer milliseconds__//
++The queue browser now displays milliseconds in the timestamps.
--//__Improved naming of API operations when adding integrations to Create__//
--Previously when you added API operations to the Create phase, the HTTP operation (i.e., POST, PUT, GET) was not visible to a user. As a result, it became tough for a user to discern between specific operations once multiple of them were used on one resource (i.e., Order, Invoice, Lead). To clarify this for the user, the display name defined in Design (instead of Capture) is now used within this overview for these operations.
++//__Cancel and next buttons order__//
++The order of the cancel and next buttons when creating a new trigger has been changed to increase alignment across the platform. Now, all cancel buttons are placed on the right of a 'next' or 'save' button.
--== **3rd generation improvements** ==
++//__Unused images__//
++When a release is removed, the related unused images in the on-premises machines will be removed as well.
--//__Update of the static alerting engine__//
--In this release, we have updated the static alerting engine that determines when one of the static alerts, as defined by eMagiz, should be triggered (or not). This change will improve the performance of the solution and will ensure that the alerts are activated correctly.
++//__Carwash logging__//
++A new logging feature enabling us to make better choices in encryption standards will be released.
--//__Add "Data pipeline" functionality__//
--This release introduces the "data pipeline" functionality to the 3rd generation runtime. This removes another blockage for models waiting on this before migrating to the 3rd generation runtime.
++//__Static alerts queue consumers__//
++Alerting will now only generate alerts for queues that are created and managed by the eMagiz JMS server.
--//__Fix related to the debugger__//
--This release introduces a fix that allows users to debug a flow once the toggle "Send error messages to eMagiz" is activated.
++== **Bug Fixes** ==
--{{warning}}To make use of this bug fix, you need to be on the latest runtime image{{/warning}}
++//__Images rebuild__//
++We fixed an issue which caused the release preparation step to take longer time than necessary and caused the machine deployment steps to execute when they could be skipped.
--//__Improved migration process__//
--This release introduced a fix that allows a user to migrate event processors with custom error handling without manual intervention.
++//__Flow Designer connection line__//
++In the Flow Designer an issue has been fixed where the connection line for drawing channels did work well when scrolling or zooming in/out on the canvas.
--//__Deployment plan change__//
--In this release, the prepare release step will not start automatically anymore. This prevents the user from waiting for this action to be finished before they can continue deploying the solution to their environment.
++//__Portal for migrated models__//
++We fixed a rare case where a runtime could not start, or logging, errors and metrics could not be seen in the portal for a model that had just migrated to the next generation architecture.
--{{warning}}Should you be interested in migrating your model to our new 3rd generation architecture, don't hesitate to contact us at [[productmanagement@emagiz.com>>mailto:productmanagement@emagiz.com]] or read our [[documentation>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]] on the subject.{{/warning}}
++//__Error channel inbounds__//
++We added a migration step, where we set the error channel to “errorChannel” of all inbounds in a flow if the custom error handling is set to false. Before, the error channel would be set to “errorChannel” only for the first inbound in an entry flow.
--== **Feedback items ** ==
--
--//__License Tracker improvements__//
--With this release, we have added several new features available to purchase. On top of that, additional information on the license, such as adding notes and seeing the data sink packets, is now available.
--
--//__Ability to view the message definition for a topic__//
--Currently, you can easily navigate to the message definition of a topic via the context menu in Design, even if there is no event processor linked to the topic.
--
--//__Restricted access for uploading custom certificates to endpoints__//
--To improve our cloud offerings' general security and prevent users from uploading the wrong certificates, we have now restricted access to this view to ensure that only the administrator can execute this change. This allows for a discussion between the team implementing the solution and eMagiz before actions are taken.
--
--== **Bug fixes ** ==
--
--//__Improved deletion behavior for enumerations__//
--To prevent that eMagiz will incorrectly delete enumeration lists when you press a "Cancel" button, we have improved the deletion behavior when viewing enumerations in the Create phase of eMagiz.
--
--//__Prevent "async" api operations__//
--With this release, we have removed the ability to select the "async" option when the default message format is API Management.
--
--//__Importing a response definition broke the request definition__//
--Currently, importing a response definition breaks the request definition. With this release, we have changed this behavior, ensuring that only the response definition is changed when importing and not the request definition.
--
--//__Removing a flow does not update the API "all-entry" anymore__//
--When you removed a flow from Create, the API Gateway all-entry received a new version of the flow. With this release, we have changed this behavior so that this only happens when the flow you remove is an API-related flow and not when it is a messaging or event streaming flow.
--
--//__Stop deployment plan when a property is missing__//
--Currently, the execution of your deployment plan continues when eMagiz notices a missing property. As this is confusing for a user and not desirable, we have updated the logic to ensure that when this happens, the execution stops. This allows you to fill in the properties, and once filled in, you can continue with the remainder of the deployment plan.
--
--//__Cap stack trace of error messages and log entries__//
--To prevent that enormous stack traces of error messages and log entries need to be processed by various systems, we have now limited what is kept so only the relevant information is shown to the user.
