This will help yourself and others every time changes are needed.

37 -In this microlearning, we will focus on using annotations on the flow level to clarify our thought process. In the annotation, you either describe a best practice everyone should follow when they change that flow (i.e. within the asynchronous routing) or describe how the (more complex) parts of the flow work. This will help yourself and others every time changes are needed within the flow.
33 +Below we will explain the differences between the various options available for your volume mapping. But before we do, we first explain how to set up this configuration within eMagiz. Then, you must navigate to Deploy -> Architecture on the model level. In this overview, you can access the Volume mapping per runtime deployed on-premise. To do so, you can right-click on the runtime to access the context menu.
38 38  
39 -Annotations can be used for:

40 40  
41 -* Describing a best practice everyone should follow
42 -* Describing (more complex) parts of the flow
43 -* Describe (parts of) your message definitions
37 +When you click this option, you will see the following pop-up. In this pop-up, you can define the machine-level and runtime-level volumes. More on that later. This is the starting point for configuring your volume mapping. We will walk through each available option and explain how they work and should be configured.
44 44  
45 -To clarify the use cases let us take a look at how annotations can be added within the eMagiz platform. In our first example, we will take a look at asynchronous routing. In many eMagiz projects, a best practice is followed on how to add something to the asynchronous routing (or change something within the asynchronous routing). Because the best practice contains multiple steps it makes sense to use the annotation functionality of eMagiz to define all these steps and register them at the place you need them (i.e. the asynchronous routing). Having done so will result in something like this:
39 +[[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@novice-file-based-connectivity-volume-mapping-on-premise--volume-mapping-pop-up.png]]
46 46

41 +{{info}}Note that you should be in "Start editing" mode to make any changes to the configuration of your volume mapping.{{/info}}
48 48  
49 -The second example is about using annotations on the flow level to describe parts of the flow. In this example, we will use the annotation to describe that we use a filter to determine which messages are picked up from a local directory and how we filter. That way anyway opening the flow has to merely read the annotation to get the context. Having done so will result in something like this:
43 +=== 3.1 Volume ===
50 50  
51 -<p align="center">[[image:novice-devops-perspectives-annotations--describe-parts-of-flow.png||]]</p>
45 +=== 3.2 Bind mount ===
52 52  
53 -The third example does not take place on the flow level but the message definition level. Therefore instead of going to Create, we go to Design. In Design when you navigate to the CDM, API Gateway Data model, Event Streaming Data model, message definitions, etc. you have the option to add annotations to the canvas. In this example, we want to make clear to all that make changes that a certain part of our CDM is used by a lot of integrations within eMagiz and therefore everyone should be careful and think twice before adjusting anything related to that part. Having done so will result in something like this:
47 +=== 3.3 Temporary file system ===
54 54  
55 -<p align="center">[[image:novice-devops-perspectives-annotations--describe-crucial-part-of-cdm.png||]]</p>
49 +=== 3.4 Named pipe ===
56 56  
57 -Now that we saw some examples let us turn our attention to the how. How can I add an annotation and how can I link it. Adding the annotation is simple. You drag the annotation icon from the left context menu onto the canvas. As a result, an empty annotation will be shown on the canvas. By double-clicking on it you can type whatever you want. Note that you need to be in "Start Editing" mode to change anything, including annotations.

60 -
61 -When you are satisfied with what you have written down you can press the Save button. After you have done so you can rescale the annotation to ensure that the complete text is visible. To link the annotation to a component (on flow level) or an entity (on message definition level) you hover over the annotation until your mouse indicator changes to a + icon, execute a right-click and drag from the annotation to the component in question.

63 -Now you know what annotations are good for and how you can add them within the eMagiz platform.

69 -Add annotation on the flow level that describes how (a part of) a flow works.
53 +Configure an entry in which you build the archiving and the clean up of the archiving.
70 70  This assignment can be completed with the help of the (Academy) project that you have created/used in the previous assignment.

72 72  == 5. Key takeaways ==

74 -* Annotations can be used for:
75 - * Describing a best practice everyone should follow
76 - * Describing (more complex) parts of the flow
77 - * Describe (parts of) your message definitions
78 -* You can add annotations by dragging and dropping the annotation icon on the canvas.
58 +* Archiving is used for audit purposes
59 +* Archiving is used for retry scenarios
60 +* Ensure that data is cleaned after a retention period to keep in control of the data
61 +* Don't forget the max messages per poll
