--**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** It has been a while since our last deployment on the 9th of December. As a result we have finished up a lot of new improvements to our 3rd generation runtime offering and fixed a variety of annoying bugs as well as some small improvements. This release is characterized by the major steps we took to release several major features on our 3rd generation runtime among which are the queue browser and message redelivery functionality.
++**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** We have improved the performance of our deployment plan, it should be finished much quicker now. Next to this, we have released new Docker Single Lane and Docker Double Lane cloud templates. Moreover, several feedback items have been processed and some bug fixes have been made. Lastly, as of this release, the next generation architecture will be our default.
--== **Queue Browser** ==
++{{warning}}
++Please be aware that for this release, because of the duration of the deployment, we advise you to check your TEST and ACCP cloud slots status, since you might need to start them manually in case your model is using the automatic wake up functionality. For following releases we will set the automatic wake up time to 6:00 AM UTC instead of 5:00 AM UTC.
++{{/warning}}
--{{warning}}Note that this functionality only works when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime{{/warning}}
++== **Quicker Deployment Plan** ==
--To enhance the observability of your integration landscape while running in the 3rd generation runtime architecture we have added a new feature to our Manage phase called the "Queue browser". You can access this functionality via the "Explore" menu option in Manage. With the help of the queue browser you can, as the name suggests, browse your queue.
++We sped up the process of preparing runtime images in the deployment plan. The step in the deployment plan concerning the preparation of runtime images will now be executed more quickly and reliably. Moreover, we fixed an issue which caused the release preparation step to take longer than necessary and caused the machine deployment steps to execute when they could be skipped. So, the deployment plan will be finished much quicker now!
--To do so, we offer two options within this functionality. We have the Explore function and we have the Wiretap function. When selecting a queue and opting for the Explore option you get a live view of what data is currently present on the queue. When selecting the Wiretap functionality you automatically wiretap your queue and are presented with copies (on a special queue) of your actual message that pass through the queue from the moment you pressed the Wiretap button.
++== **Next Generation Architecture Default** ==
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-overview.png]]
++With this release, the next generation architecture will become the default. New models will use this generation as default.
--After selecting the queue and choosing the option eMagiz will show you the list of messages (oldest first) that are currently on the queue (Explore option) or that passed the queue since the moment you activate the option (Wiretap option). For each message you have various options at your disposal.
++[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@209-release-blog-next-gen-default.png]]
--* Delete the message from the queue (Explore option)
--  ** This means throwing away live data which can be helpful in a test or acceptance environment where you inadvertedly put a lot of messages on a queue.
--* Clear message from the wiretap queue (Wiretap option)
--  ** Once you are done with the analysis of a certain message in the wiretap functionality you can clear it from the overview so it does not clutter the view anymore
--* Refresh messages list (both options)
--  ** By pressing this button you can refresh the list of messages that are displayed to you. Note that the list is sorted in such a way that the oldest messages are shown first
--* Save as test message
--  ** By pressing this button you can save the message and use it in our flow testing functionality in Create. Note that we link the message to the corresponding flow if we can. Should we not be able to do so we link the message to your model so you can still use it in the flow testing functionality.
--* Download
--  ** By pressing this button you can download the message and use it outside of the tooling should that be needed.
++== **Cloud Template R11 Docker - Single Lane** ==
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-explore-overview.png]]
++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>>doc:Main.Release Information.Cloud Templates.R11 Docker - Single Lane.WebHome||target="blank"]].
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-wiretap-overview.png]]
++== **Cloud Template R13 Docker - Double Lane** ==
--== **Message Redelivery ** ==
++This release introduces a new cloud template for all our customers running in a double-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>>doc:Main.Release Information.Cloud Templates.R13 Docker - Double Lane.WebHome||target="blank"]].
--{{warning}}Note that this functionality only works when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime and the functionality is enabled for you environment.{{/warning}}
++== **Feedback Items** ==
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--message-redelivery-overview.png]]
++//__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:
--Just as with our current offering we now offer our message redelivery functionality for our 3rd generation architecture. To enhance the user experience we have placed this functionality as well under the "Explore" option in Manage. When selecting the message redelivery option you will see all messages that are currently in need to be redelivered (as an error occurred).
++* 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.
--Just as in the current functionality you can select a specific message and retry (or delete) it. The same can be done for all messages at once. Following that you can still see the linked error message as you could before.
++//__Queue explorer milliseconds__//
++The queue browser now displays milliseconds in the timestamps.
--On top of that we have added some additional functionality.
++//__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.
--* Search option
--  ** Original queue name
--  ** Original message ID (which can be found as a header called jms_messageid in the error message view)
--* Save as test message
--  ** By pressing this button you can save the message and use it in our flow testing functionality in Create.
--* Download
--  ** By pressing this button you can download the message and use it outside of the tooling should that be needed.
++//__Unused images__//
++When a release is removed, the related unused images in the on-premises machines will be removed as well.
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--message-redelivery-detail-overview.png]]
++//__Carwash logging__//
++A new logging feature enabling us to make better choices in encryption standards will be released.
--== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
++//__Static alerts queue consumers__//
++Alerting will now only generate alerts for queues that are created and managed by the eMagiz JMS server.
--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.
++== **Bug Fixes** ==
--//__Define memory settings for on-premise runtimes from Deploy Architecture__//
--With this release, you are now able to define the memory settings (and therefore the memory limits) of your on-premise runtimes in the same manner as cloud runtimes. In all cases you can now define and change the memory settings via Deploy Architecture. In contrast to how these values are actualized for cloud runtimes you need to create a new release and deploy it to actualize the changes on-premise.
++//__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.
--//__Empty runtime feedback when deploying a release (or setting the release as active)__//
--To prevent that you are not being able to deploy a release to your environment due to a mismatch between what is in your release and in Deploy Architecture we have now added a feedback pop-up when deploying a release that notifies you for which runtimes there is a mismatch between your release and Deploy Architecture.
++//__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.
--//__Auto-fill namespaces for SOAP hosted webservices__//
--Based on your configuration in Design eMagiz will now auto-fill the namespace when you host a SOAP web service. This avoids any potential problems in validating messages.
++//__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.
--//__Updated H2 database setting__//
--As of this release, we have improved the configuration of our H2 databases that are used within eMagiz. This new setting will ensure that the runtime controls when the H2 database is shut down.
--
--{{warning}}If you already migrated your runtime, you should execute a "Reset" action on the infra flow to get these changes in your model{{/warning}}
--
--//__Runtime settings option added to context menu on runtime level Deploy Architecture__//
--As a replacement of the current HTTP settings context menu we have added a new menu item called runtime settings. On top of being able to configure your HTTP settings (which you need to define for a hosted web service) you now also can define whether the control bus needs to work for this runtime.
--
--//__Deploy Agent option added to context menu on machine level Deploy Architecture__//
--With this release, we have added a context menu item that allows user to deploy the agent that is needed to run your 3rd generation architecture on-premise. For more information on how to install this please check out this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Expert Level.Solution Architecture.expert-solution-architecture-onpremises-installguide.WebHome||target="blank"]]
--
--//__Added "Reset" functionality__//
--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.
--
--== **Feedback items ** ==
--
--We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
--
--//__Improved naming convention on Store related pages__//
--We have improved various display names using the merge functionality within our store offering.
--
--//__Update security protocols for our internal architecture__//
--Parts of our internal infrastructure (i.e., docs.emagiz.com) have been updated to adhere to the latest security standards.
--
--//__Improved read-only description for "if exists" constructions in Transformations__//
--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.
--
--
--== **Bug fixes ** ==
--
--//__Decent validation feedback when not filling in the property value__//
--We have fixed the validation feedback you get when not filling in the property value using the "Check properties" functionality.
--
--//__Incorrect resource locations__//
--We have fixed several instances where the resource location was not generated correctly in the 3rd generation runtime.
--
--//__Apply to environment in User Management performance improvement__//
--We have improved the performance of updating User Management on your environment. This way, the update functionality is more stable and faster.
--
  == **Fancy Forum Answers** ==
