209 - Max Verstappen

Version 254.1 by Carlijn Kokkeler on 2023/11/21 12:04

Hi there, eMagiz developers! We have done .....

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.

Quicker Deployment Plan

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 deploynment plan will be finished much quicker now!

Next Generation Architecture Default

With this release, the next generation architecture will become the default. New models will use this generation as default.

Cloud Template R11 Docker - 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.

Cloud Template R13 Docker - Double Lane

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.

Feedback Items

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.

Send build requests asynchronously
The step in the deployment plan concerning the preparation of runtime images will now be executed more quickly and reliably.

Queue explorer milliseconds
The queue browser now displays milliseconds in the timestamps.

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.

Unused images
When a release is removed, the related unused images in the on-premises machines will be removed as well.

Carwash logging
A new logging feature enabling us to make better choices in encryption standards will be released.

Static alerts queue consumers
Alerting will now only generate alerts for queues that are created and managed by the eMagiz JMS server.

Bug Fixes

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.

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.

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.

Fancy Forum Answers

As always, this is a gentle reminder to ask questions via the Q&A forum. The Q&A forum is available in the eMagiz iPaaS portal, so we can all benefit from the knowledge within the community. For some inspiration, take a look at these forum answers:
