ArcGIS Developer
From Wildsong
I have an ArcGIS Developer "Professional" license. Here are some ongoing notes as I work with it.
I also have a personal ArcGIS license so that I can access the full range of extensions in Desktop.
What's available
This is a partial list
- Desktop includes ArcMap, ArcCatalog, ArcGIS Pro, and the commonly used extensions 3D Analyst, Spatial Analyst, and Network Analyst.
- Enterprise includes ArcGIS Server, Portal for ArcGIS, and...
- Online includes an organizational account and credits so you can use it.
- Apps
- of course, developer support includes SDK's and Runtime.
Roadmap
- Put ArcGIS Server in Docker. See http://github.com/Geo-CEG/docker-arcgis-server Built on Ubuntu Server. Mostly done - I need to work out the VOLUMES settings.
- Put Portal for ArcGIS in Docker. See http://github.com/Geo-CEG/docker-portal-for-arcgis Built on Ubuntu Server. In progress
- Set up SQL Server in Docker (comes from Microsoft)
- Load some data.
- Confirm it is all usable from ArcGIS Desktop.
- Build a web site for internal use.
- Publish the data into ArcGIS Online.
- Create a web map and publish it.
- GeoCortex

Backups
Watch the video "ArcGIS for Server: High Availability and Disaster Recovery (2016)"
Read the manual.
ESRI provides backup tools to back up
- settings
- service configurations
- Portal content and data store
The backup tool is called "Web GIS DR Tool" where "DR" = Disaster Recovery Sounds like the backup tool wraps everything in one output file.
Use your own procedures to back up cache tiles, data files and SQL databases.
