ArcGIS Enterprise Basics - A Tour

[@superdevinc]

As someone who has only worked with desktop deployments of arc, this was super informative. I have an interview this week for a GIS solution engineer and they only use enterprise. Might have saved my skin, thanks dude!

[@Art-uz3fk]

Why doesn't esri have any webinars this informative? Been trying to piece this together for a while and this was so helpful. Thank you.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Thank you. Glad it was helpful!

[@scottfraser8649]

Having just switched jobs, going from a standalone GIS Server to an Enterprise system, this was a good start to understanding the concept differences. Thank you.

[@madwarren9672]

I'm in the same boat just now as you @scott !

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Many seem to be moving that way. But this is still a powerful solution and good pairing with ArcGIS Online

[@rogerdunn3609]

I came from an organization that had ArcGIS Server and moved into an organization that has a Federated Portal with Server. This video was very helpful to understanding my new organization's architecture.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

I'm glad you found it useful! Thanks for the message.

[@WayneCounty-f7j]

We are going to move from an ArcGIS Server environment to an Enterprise environment. This video made it much simpler to understand how everything interacts with each other and what is needed to complete the upgrade. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Glad it was helpful!

[@prayagshah7735]

We are trying to move from ArcGIS to ArcGIS Pro and also changing to Enterprise environment. And this video has helped me a lot in understanding the concepts. Thank you, Shawn.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Glad it helped! Thanks for the message and let me know if I can help in your org.

[@devoidbmx1]

Thank you for this excellent video. I've sat through many ESRI UC presentations about this and I work with Enterprise on a daily basis, but I still learned a few things. Sometimes it helps to see/hear things described from an alternative perspective. I especially appreciated your explanation of the ports and network traffic routing. I'm taking a screenshot of your diagram and hanging it on my office wall, alongside our own Enterprise architecture diagram.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Thanks! I'm always learning too and honoured to make it on your wall!

[@Far.2023]

Dear Shawn, I just watched your ESRI webinar! I really enjoyed your bit. Thanks

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Appreciate the note. Enjoy exploring!

[@gxtzqvtunes]

This is great thank you, the diagram and the way you explained everything was great.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

[@KatwereJames]

[@ypeng7067]

Very clear explanation and this is what I have been looking for!!! Thank you!!!!!!

[@shaumitra]

Very informative, thanks for this video.

[@subhashvundavalli-g9j]

Thanks nice information

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Thanks for liking

[@davidhoy4800]

Thank you for this very helpfiul presentation. It is very useful and I believe clearly decribes the parts of ArcGIS Enterprise. I realise you are trying to keep this diagram simple - but you have omitted the fact that the Portal does not talk directly to the Datastore - the Server is responsible for storing and publishing the Datastore content as a hosted service that is referenced by the Portal (just like the AGOL representation. You do show this when showing the url's, but the diagram is a little misleading.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Thanks! When I revise the diagram I will revisit this.

[@savagecabbage895]

Once again great stuff :)

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@gvchanti]

Explained very well.. Thank You.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Jace0241]

Shawn, this was an excellent tutorial. Thanks so much. Can you please create additional tutorials on ArcGIS JavaScript API, Portal Administration and ArcGIS Online Administration. Thank you!

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

I'll look into these ideas, thank you.

[@TeacherKaile]

Great video. Thank you for sharing!

[@ksenia.2283]

thank you!

[@abhijeetbala]

Well explained. Thanks a lot.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Glad you liked it

[@clavicus]

Thank you, great video, just FYI audio levels are way low though

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Sorry about that. I will have to redo this video in future and will make the volume better then! Thanks for letting me know.

[@GISOverflow]

Thanks a lot, i think you should put what does federation server means in bullets points, it would help much more.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Good idea!

[@karamkhattab4640]

THANK YOU !

[@bunthonmao5162]

I have 2 layers (A, B) which has relationship by storing object id of layer A in layer B field. by using REST API can i get a collection of layer A with related records of layer B?

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Relationships are possible, but not an easy task and haven't worked on it. I recommend keeping it simple in Survey 123, OR use Field Maps which is more native to the Esri ecosystem and can do more with the geodatabase.

[@GISOverflow]

what tools do you mean yo can traffic items that's been used at items database ? i think you mean by this , adding items directly without being hosted like addding images , pdfs ..etc.

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

Not sure I understand the question. The items database is just basically a file explorer if that is what you are asking.

[@guixingwei2286]

GREAT JOB!!!!!!

[@Neo-ew6uc]

Thank You for your great work, just the sound was very low if you can fix it and reupload the video that will be helpful.

[@waynewatson7970]

ESRI is the most confusing company of products and I have been using since 96

[@shawnsspotlightongis]

The marketing and actual use cases for solutions are definitely at odds sometimes!

[@subhashvundavalli-g9j]

Thanks nice information
