Carlijn Kokkeler 185.1 5 **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.

Carlijn Kokkeler 185.1 7 == **State Generation** ==
Carlijn Kokkeler 172.1 8
Carlijn Kokkeler 185.1 9 //__New components__//
10 The following components have been added:
11 * Aggregator: reverse of the splitter, used to combine multiple messages into a single one.
Carlijn Kokkeler 190.1 12 * Infinispan metadata outbound channel adapter: used to (temporarily) store metadata, which can be used to enrich messages, or make decisions in filters or scripts.
Carlijn Kokkeler 185.1 13 * Content enricher: used to add properties to the payload of messages, similar to what the header enricher can do for headers.
Carlijn Kokkeler 190.1 14 * 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.
Carlijn Kokkeler 185.1 15 * Infinispan support objects, supporting the aggregator, metadata outbound channel adapter and content enricher.
Erik Bakker 151.1 16
Carlijn Kokkeler 185.1 17 //__SpEL functions & JSON__//
18 Added SpEL functions for:
Carlijn Kokkeler 188.1 19 * Encoding & decoding Base64, Hex and hmac.
20 * Date retrieval (currentDateTime, currentEpochMilli, currentEpochSecond).
21 * Date conversion (DateTime to Epoch, Epoch to DateTime, DateTime formatter and DateTime parser).
Carlijn Kokkeler 187.1 22
Carlijn Kokkeler 186.1 23 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`.
Erik Bakker 151.1 24
Carlijn Kokkeler 188.1 25 Added support for `#JsonPath` usage in SpEL expressions.
Erik Bakker 181.1 26
Carlijn Kokkeler 189.1 27 //__New image version 2.0.0__//
Carlijn Kokkeler 190.1 28 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.
Carlijn Kokkeler 188.1 29
Carlijn Kokkeler 191.1 30 //__Component pages__//
Carlijn Kokkeler 190.1 31 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.
Carlijn Kokkeler 189.1 32
Carlijn Kokkeler 185.1 33 == **Metrics Storage Duration** ==
Carlijn Kokkeler 192.1 34 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.

Carlijn Kokkeler 154.1 38 == **Feedback Items** ==
Erik Bakker 149.1 39
Carlijn Kokkeler 154.1 40 //__Alerting manual pause__//
41 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.
Erik Bakker 151.1 42
Carlijn Kokkeler 154.1 43 //__Ordering of graphs in Manage__//
44 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).
Erik Bakker 151.1 45
Carlijn Kokkeler 155.1 46 //__UTC times in Grafana panels__//
47 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.
Erik Bakker 151.1 48
Carlijn Kokkeler 155.1 49 //__Update flow designer version__//
Carlijn Kokkeler 184.1 50 The framework used in the flow designer has been updated, improving performance.
Carlijn Kokkeler 155.1 51
Carlijn Kokkeler 157.1 52 //__Carwash track TLS versions in logging__//
53 A new logging feature will be released, enabling us to make better choices in deprecating old encryption standards.
Carlijn Kokkeler 155.1 54
Carlijn Kokkeler 157.1 55 //__Moving channels in the flow designer__//
56 Moving already attached channels in the flow designer has been made sligthly easier.
57
58 //__Topic sizes description change__//
59 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.
60
Carlijn Kokkeler 159.1 61 //__Password change notification__//
62 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.
63
64 //__Password comparison__//
65 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.
66
Carlijn Kokkeler 162.1 67 //__Inactive user alerting__//
68 Inactivated users are now removed from all alert settings (included “disabled“ settings) to avoid undesirable notifications.
Carlijn Kokkeler 159.1 69
Carlijn Kokkeler 162.1 70 //__Alphabetical sorting on user level in HTTP statistics__//
71 Variables in the 3rd generation runtimes HTTP statistics detail pages are now sorted case insensitive.

Erik Bakker 124.1 74 == **Bug Fixes** ==
Erik Bakker 122.1 75
Carlijn Kokkeler 159.1 76 //__Flow designer styling__//
77 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.
Erik Bakker 148.1 78
Carlijn Kokkeler 162.1 79 //__Partial search for messages__//
Carlijn Kokkeler 170.1 80 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".
Carlijn Kokkeler 162.1 81
82 //__Disk usage after cloud template update__//
Carlijn Kokkeler 164.1 83 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.
Carlijn Kokkeler 162.1 84
Carlijn Kokkeler 165.1 85 //__Error handling migration__//
86 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.
