5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last couple of weeks, we have worked around the clock to release various improvements points within the 3rd generation runtime and elsewhere. Among others we have improved the feedback provided when a flow can't start due to an incorrect transformation. Improved when certain logging is triggerd and improved the stability of our internal infrastructure. On top of that we fixed several bug fixes surrounding other parts of the platform. So without further ado let us take a look at all these improvements.
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, a new runtime image (LINK) will be available, including changes to our infinispan cache manager, SMB inbound channel adapter, and heap memory configuration. Moreover, we have made progress on our alerting improvement plans and have improved and added several pop-up screens. Find out all we released below!

7 -== **3rd generation improvements** ==
8 +== **Feedback Items** ==
9 +//__Alerting notification settings__//
8 8  
9 -//__Better feedback in error log when a corrupt stylesheet is encountered__//
10 -We have improved the logging within a 3rd generation runtime that identifies the broken resource by name within a container and informs you to navigate to Create -> Resources to see in which flows the resource is used so you can take the appropriate action.
11 +//__Process containers__//
12 +If a model does not have a license for a pattern, the model contact now has the option to delete the process container of that given pattern.
11 11  
12 -//__Better internal error handling to avoid unnecessary alerting and notifications__//
13 -We have improved the internal error handling when sending metrics from the runtime to our monitoring stack. This will gravely reduce the number of alerts you will receive on this topic when your model runs on the 3rd generation monitoring stack.
14 +//__Design settings__//
15 +When pressing Apply settings in Design Settings, a confirmation screen will now be shown to present the changes that will be taken into effect for each environment.
14 14  
15 -//__Improved Manage Dashboard__//
16 -This release improves what you can see in the Manage Dashboard after you migrated your model to the 3rd generation runtime architecture.
17 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-225-design-settings.png]]
17 17  
18 -//__Improved process surrounding "slot standby" and "slot wakeup" for 3rd generation runtimes__//
19 -When a slot is put into standby mode we now also stop all on-premise runtimes to avoid excessive logging (and alerting) on your models that have this functionality activated. The opposite happens when the slot wakeup is triggered. As a result not only the cloud runtimes are started but also all on-premise runtimes.
19 +//__Untested images__//
20 + A warning will be shown when a release is activated on production with a new runtime image version which has not been tested on acceptance before.
21 +
22 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-225-image-warning.png]]
20 20  
21 -//__Improved process of deploy preparation__//
22 -With this release we have improved the process through which your deploy action is preparated by eMagiz. As a result the chances of unexpected behavior occuring in your model are drastically reduced.
24 +//__Infinispan Cache Manager__//
25 +We added support for the Infinispan Cache Manager to perform clustering through JGroups' GossipRouter. For this, a new runtime image LINK is available.
26 +
27 +//__Infinispan Cache Manager error message__//
28 +We improved the error message when configuring an Infinispan Cache Manager with ‘TCP-ping’ transport type, when the list of peer hosts are passed in invalid format. For this, a new runtime image LINK is available.
23 23  
24 -//__Improved migration of Streaming container__//
25 -When migrating your streaming container we now take into account whether "custom error handling" is used within one of the event processors. Based on that determination specific additional components are added to ensure that the streaming container will work after migrating without any manual intervention.
30 +//__Flow bump__//
31 +When bumping a new version of the flows that are using a resource, you can specify which version type you want to create, Major, Minor or Patch version. You can also give more information in a description.
32 +
33 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-225-resources-update.png]]
26 26  
27 -//__Add History to Notifications in Manage__//
28 -To improve the auditability of our platform we have introduced an audit trail to the Notification section in Manage for models running on our 3rd generation monitoring stack. This way it is always visible when the notifications were paused and who paused or unpaused the notifications.
35 +//__Unused support objects__//
36 +Support objects are now shown in two sections, namely 'Support objects' and 'Unused support objects'.
29 29  
30 -//__Improved Manage phase for Event Streaming__//
31 -Based on the feedback on our first iteration of the Manage phase for Event Streaming we have improved the graphs and the calculations that fill the graphs with values. On top of that we have added helptexts to clarify what each graph our table displays to you.
38 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-225-unused-support-object.png]]
39 +
40 +//__Deleting routes__//
41 +For clarity purposes, a confirmation pop-up will be shown when deleting routes.
32 32  
33 -//__Improved help text for network volumes__//
34 -With this release we have improved the help text that explains network volumes and how to use them within our solution.
43 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-225-routes.png]]

36 -{{warning}}Should you be interested in migrating your model to our new 3rd generation architecture, don't hesistate to contact us at [[productmanagement@emagiz.com>>mailto:productmanagement@emagiz.com]] or read our [[documentation>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3.WebHome||target="blank"]] on the subject.{{/warning}}
45 +//__Debug queue__//
46 +The 'Open debug queue' button in the queue browser enables the user to directly open the debug queue when it exists instead of having to search for it.
47 +
48 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-225-open-debug-queue.png]]
49 +
50 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
51 +//__Internal server error__//
52 +The internal server error pop-up is not received anymore when moving to Create in a model which has an Event Streaming license but is not using it.
37 37  
38 -== **Feedback items ** ==
54 +//__Namespace update__//
55 +Editing a namespace used in a message definition automatically updates the message definition & transformations.
39 39  
40 -//__Removed OData as option for an API Gateway operation__//
41 -With this release, we have removed the OData operation option as it was not used and was not fully supported anymore by the platform.
57 +//__Error pop-up__//
58 +We fixed an issue where a pop-up was shown with an incorrect error while editing the message mapping of a synchronous flows.
42 42  
43 -//__Changes in API Gateway operation paths is automatically updated in Create__//
44 -When you change your path on a hosted API Gateway we will now automatically update the accompanying component in your Create (all-)entry.
60 +//__SMB inbound channel adapter__//
61 +The SMB inbound channel adapter failed to retrieve files when the remote directory pointed to a path with multiple directories in it, unless they were seperated with '}}' instead of '{{/'. This has been resolved, meaning that remote directories that contain multiple folders in its path can (and should) contain '/' again. For this, a new runtime image LINK is available.
45 45  
46 -{{warning}}Make sure to check the changes and create a new version afterward to deploy the changes.{{/warning}}
63 +//__Heap memory__//
64 +The initial committed heap memory of runtimes has been lowered to better match actual usage. For this, a new runtime image LINK is available.
47 47  
48 -== **Bug fixes ** ==
66 +//__Classpath conflicts__//
67 +We updated transitive runtime dependencies to prevent potential conflicts on the classpath for extended images.
49 49  
50 -//__Prevent endless loop in Deploy -> User Management__//
51 -With this release, we have changed the way we update properties when user management is updated for an API gateway using the API Key security mechanisms. This will prevent the endless loop that could now happen on occasion.
52 -
53 -{{warning}}Any operation that is incorrectly deleted from Deploy while still end up in the logic and could cause issue so pay attention when removing API Gateway operations.{{/warning}}
54 -
55 -//__Update error handling during migration to the 3rd generation runtime__//
56 -As of now the error handling of all flows is correctly updated whilst migrating to the 3rd generation runtime configuration.
