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 work hard on improving our next generation architecture and introduced alerting functionality on top of our event streaming pattern based on user feedback. Furthermore there are several smaller feedback items and bugs that 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 +With this release we expand our alerting functionality into the event streaming pattern. As of now one new "static" alert is introduced for all clients (using event streaming) and two "dynamic" alerts are introduced that you can configure yourself if there is need for it.
12 12  
13 -//__External machine agents__//
14 -We have added functionality that allows the user to (auto-) update their external (on-premise) machine agents on the current generation architecture from the portal. With future releases of environment templates, your on-premise agents may also be updated.
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 whether messages on it are deleted due to a size or time constraint. In cases where data is deleted becomes the topic was too full way before the messages should have been removed as a result of the retention hours constraint this alert can be seen as an indication that messages might be deleted before consumer groups had the option to consume the messages.
15 15  
16 -//__Improved OpenAPI import__//
17 -The path length that eMagiz supports when importing OpenAPI specifications is now increased to a maximum of 300 characters.
13 +The two "dynamic" alerts we have added mimic the alerting on queue level we already offer to the community.
18 18  
19 -//__Flow test stack trace__//
20 -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.
15 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@197-release-blog--new-alerting-options.png]]
21 21  
22 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-219-creation-carousel-stack-trace.png]]
17 +The first new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once the total 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 message placed on a topic called "Exception" is less than 15 messages within 5 minutes.
23 23  
24 -{{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.
19 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@196-release-blog--alert-config-example.png]]
25 25  
26 -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.
21 +The second new "dynamic" alert allows you to raise an alert once one (or more) consumer groups is more than X number of messages behind on one or more topics. The configuration of this is comparable as we saw before.
27 27  
28 -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}}

30 -== **Bug Fixes** ==
31 -//__Error handling__//
32 -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.
25 +== **3rd generation improvements** ==
33 33  
34 -//__Volume mapping passwords__//
35 -Passwords for network volumes are now securely hidden in the runtime’s machine after deploying a new release.
27 +//__Event Streaming statistics completion__//
28 +In this release, we have updated the retrieval of data to ensure that for all models, all environments and all topics this data can be shown to the user so they can properly monitor the environment.
36 36  
37 -//__Create integration removal__//
38 -When removing an integration from Create, the Create phase is now correctly updated.
30 +//__Deployments on next generation architecture__//
31 +This release fixes several smaller bugs and adds several improvements to the deployment process of the next generation architecture.
39 39  
40 -//__Legacy statistics__//
41 -Legacy pages are now correctly hidden when running on the current runtime architecture.
33 +//__Clean queues option__//
34 +This release introduces an option for **admins** to clean queues that remained after a migration towards the next generation runtime architecture. This will make the overview of which queues are "problematic" a much more realistic overview.
42 42  
43 -//__Unused properties__//
44 -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.
36 +== **Feedback items ** ==
45 45  
46 -//__Enumeration values__//
47 -Users are now able to add and edit enumeration values while editing event processor flows in the Create phase.
38 +//__On-premise containers are started upon slot wakeup__//
39 +With this release, we have added additional functionality to models running in the next generation runtime architecture. With this improvement all on-premise containers are stopped when the cloud slot goes to sleep and are woken up once the slot is woken up in the morning.
48 48  
49 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-219-creation-carousel-event-processor.png]]
41 +//__Resource path is shown to the user__//
42 +You can now, without downloading, see the resource path of a resource by viewing the metadata of the resource. You can do so by pressing the "eye" icon to view this information.
50 50  
51 -//__SFTP sessions__//
52 -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.
44 +//__Flow designer improvements__//
45 +With this release various improvements have been made to the flow designer. Among others we have improved the overview of what an "unused resource" is. You now have the option to define certain resources that are used but cannot be auto-detected by eMagiz to be an "used" resource to avoid confusion.
53 53  
47 +//__Improved capabilities of a company contact__//
48 +With this release we have improved the capabilities of a company contact. As of now you can also add users to models belonging to subcompanies below your the company to which you are the company contact.
49 +
50 +== **Bug fixes ** ==
51 +
52 +//__Optional API parameters are handled correctly__//
53 +Currently, eMagiz would create the wrong expression for handling optional API parameters. With this release we have improved the expression in such a way that all optional parameters are handled correctly out of the box.
54 +
55 +//__Without CDM rights nothing related to any data model can be edited anymore__//
56 +With this release, we have made sure that nothing related to any data model can be edited without having the proper rights.
57 +
58 +//__Improved sorting of Design and Deploy archticture__//
59 +With this release, we now ensure that both Design and Deploy architecture are sorted in the same manner to avoid confusion when quickly switching between both views.
