6 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** This release, we have a new version of our eMagiz Mendix connector available, that will support Mendix version 10 and higher. Furthermore, we have improved our functionality to enable users to seamlessly import OpenAPI specifications with URL paths of up to 300 characters in length. Lastly, we have done many bug fixes, one of which will ensure that SFTP sessions will be closed again after completion. For this fix, a new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V304.WebHome||target="blank"]] has been published.
5 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on improving our next-generation architecture and introduced alerting functionality on top of our event streaming pattern based on user feedback. Furthermore, several smaller feedback items and bugs have been resolved with this release. So without further ado, let us dive into all we have to offer.
7 7  
8 -== **Feedback Items** ==
7 +== **Event streaming alerting** ==
9 9  
10 -//__eMagiz Mendix connector__//
11 -We released a new version of our eMagiz Mendix connector that will support Mendix version 10 and higher.
9 +This release expands our alerting functionality into the event streaming pattern. As of now, one new "static" alert has been introduced for all clients (using event streaming), and two "dynamic" alerts have been introduced that you can configure yourself if there is a need for it.
12 12  
13 -//__Improved OpenAPI import__//
14 -The path length that eMagiz supports when importing OpenAPI specifications is now increased to a maximum of 300 characters.
11 +The "static" alert we have added raises an alert (and a subsequent email) when the actual topic size crosses the threshold of 80% of the configured maximum retention size on a topic. This alert provides insights into whether messages on it are deleted due to a size or time constraint. In cases where data is deleted, the topic was too full way before the messages should have been removed due to the retention hours constraint. This alert can indicate that messages might be deleted before consumer groups had the option to consume the messages.
15 15  
16 -//__Flow test stack trace__//
17 -If a flow test creates a log line with level ‘Warning’ or ‘Error’ and there is a stack trace created, then we show the stack trace inside the log message on a separate tab.
13 +The two "dynamic" alerts we have added mimic the alerting on the queue level we already offer to the community.
18 18  
19 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-219-creation-carousel-stack-trace.png]]
15 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@197-release-blog--new-alerting-options.png]]
20 20  
21 -{{info}}With the release of Spring 6 in our previous release, some users reported that their filters have begun logging warnings about discarding messages even though the filter is configured to not throw an exception on rejection. For flows that process high numbers of messages (and potentially discard a lot of messages as well) this can significantly disturb the overview of the logs in the manage phase.
17 +The first new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once the number of messages on one (or more topics) is less than a certain number per defined time unit. So, for example, you can configure an alert once the number of messages placed on a topic called "Exception" is less than 15 messages within 5 minutes.
22 22  
23 -To mitigate this, you can change the filter that throws the warning so it specifically refers to a discard channel. Given the chosen configuration, we advice to use the nullChannel option. This will silently drop the message without registering a warning in the log. In case you find the warning in the log a nice addition, we suggest to add an explicit discard channel leading to a logging outbound channel adapter. This log component can then be configured to throw a warning.
19 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@196-release-blog--alert-config-example.png]]
24 24  
25 -In the next release, we will aid you by adding a validation check that will force you to select a discard channel when it is currently not selected once you edit the flow to create a new version. More on this in the next release blog. {{/info}}
21 +The second new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once one (or more) consumer groups are more than X messages behind on one or more topics. The configuration of this is comparable to what we saw before.
26 26  
27 -== **Bug Fixes** ==
28 -//__Error handling__//
29 -When migrating to the current generation architecture, the default error handling will now also be migrated correctly, so that no manual changes have to be done for this.
23 +For more information on the generic way of working surrounding alerting, please check out this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Crash Course.Crash Course Platform.crashcourse-platform-manage-alerting-gen3||target="blank"]] and this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Novice.Alerting.novice-alerting-dynamic-alerting.WebHome||target="blank"]].
30 30  
31 -//__Volume mapping passwords__//
32 -Passwords for network volumes are now securely hidden in the runtime’s machine after deploying a new release.
25 +== **3rd generation improvements** ==
33 33  
34 -//__Create integration removal__//
35 -When removing an integration from Create, the Create phase is now correctly updated.
27 +//__Increased grace period for shutdown__//
28 +In this release, we have increased a container's grace period to shut down before it is forcefully shut down. This should reduce the chance of unwanted failover behavior within your model.
36 36  
37 -//__Legacy statistics__//
38 -Legacy pages are now correctly hidden when running on the current runtime architecture.
30 +//__Update at once or not__//
31 +This release fixes and re-introduces the option to execute your actions on the eMagiz per zone or all at once when running in a double-lane Docker setup.
39 39  
40 -//__Unused properties__//
41 -Users should not be able to edit or delete eMagiz properties, and so these eMagiz properties will now not be shown in the 'Unused property overview' anymore.
33 +//__Improved user feedback while executing a deployment plan__//
34 +This release introduces additional feedback to the user when the deployment plan is executed. This is noticeable when a step cannot be executed properly. The relevant information about why this cannot be executed is shown to the user. This way, they can take this information and act upon it instead of assuming everything went well.
42 42  
43 -//__Enumeration values__//
44 -Users are now able to add and edit enumeration values while editing event processor flows in the Create phase.
36 +//__Improved auto-healing when running in a hybrid situation__//
37 +In situations where you run in a hybrid situation (i.e., partly next-gen and partly the current generation), we have improved the auto-healing functionality in case an "out of memory" appears on a runtime running in the current generation but on a next-generation architecture.

39 +== **Feedback items ** ==
47 47  
48 -//__SFTP sessions__//
49 -SFTP session factories did not close their connection after it was complete. This could cause connection starvation on the SFTP server, and was especially noticable when using the SFTP Session Factory without caching, as that factory opens a new connection for every call. For this, a new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V304.WebHome||target="blank"]] has been released.
41 +//__Make sure the message format can be viewed without "Start editing"__//
42 +With this release, we have ensured that when you navigate to Design -> System message, you can see the message format (i.e., XML, JSON, or EDI) without entering the "Start Editing" mode.
50 50  
44 +//__Various styling improvements in the flow testing functionality__//
45 +Various minor styling improvements have been added to the flow testing functionality to improve the overall user experience. Please check out the release notes for a complete list and more details.
