WisDOT ArcGIS Server Implementation

1. WisDOT ArcGIS Server Implementation WLIA Spring Annual 2011 Mitch Moline WisDOT GIS System and Technology Administrator

3. DOA/DOT Co-Location Project

4. ArcGIS Server Recommendations Project

6. Approach Used for Upgrade

9. ArcIMS Server Upgrade Done ManuallyArcSDE Upgrade Done Manually

11. update any tablesee http://support.esri.com/index.cfm?fa=knowledgebase.techarticles.articleShow&d=35013

13. Production = physical blades; SYST and UAT = virtual machines

14. Once new hardware production, severs aliased with the old server names to avoid breaking code, connection files, layer files etc… Since I did not build the v9.1 system, I had to document the current system so I could rebuild it at the FDC as v9.3.1

15. WisDOT ArcGIS Server Implementation WLIA Spring Annual 2011 Co-Located GIS Server Infrastructure… Scaled for the implementation of ArcGIS Server Separate Production, Acceptance and System Test Environments

19. Opened ArcIMS Servlet

20. Scaled Architecture to support ArcGIS Server

21. WisDOT ArcGIS Server Implementation WLIA Spring Annual 2011 ArcGIS Server (AGS) Recommendations Project … The Purpose of this project was to determine and evaluate business requirements, perform R&D, and make recommendations for the implementation of ArcGIS Server The Scope of this project was to develop recommendations in the form of alternatives for implementing AGS at WisDOT

23. Configuring alternative Unit Test Environments

24. Deploying R&D AGS Web Mapping Services and Applications

26. Java and .NET AGS Application Sever Configurations

28. Used Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 for .NET ADF

29. Used RSA (Eclipse) for the Java ADF

30. AGS Services were either hosted locally (EDN) or from R&D AGS Server

32. Mozilla Firefox/Firebug

34. Flex Builder (Trial Version)

35. MXML, ActionScript

36. Flex API – downloaded locally

38. Silverlight Tools for Visual Studio 2008 SP1

39. Expression Blend 3 (optional install, trial version)

40. XAML, VB.Net (most samples are in C+)

41. ArcGIS API for Microsoft Silverlight/WPF – download locally

43. ArcGIS Server for Microsoft .NET Framework (EDN)

44. Visual Studio 2008

46. Image Services – Base Map layers, raster, dynamic

47. Geometry Services

48. GeoProcessing Services – Toolboxes and Extended (SOE)

50. Development of each focused on same set of deliverables

53. Technology Architecture

54. Information Architecture

55. Security Architecture

57. WisDOT ArcGIS Server Implementation WLIA Spring Annual 2011 AGS Development SDKs and APIs … This was used to help describe the AGS development options to management and Java developers

62. Scales – how to determine them

63. Origin - what to use

64. Instances – how many to use, when

65. Cache Directory Location

68. Python Training – ESRI Instructor Lead

70. Plug-in support for Flex and Silverlight at WisDOT - NA

71. Local Install of JavaScript API and JavaScript SDK Help

72. AGS Web Service Security

73. AGS JS API Code Assist plug-in for Aptana

74. Meeting with ESRI regarding Deprecation plans of ADF

75. Java Developers and the AGS SOAP API for AGS

76. GP tools from ADF vs. APIs

77. AGS Warm up IO tool

78. You can run AGS manger for all AGS instances from Administrators pc

79. Rest API admin tool , must login with all caps = ADOTMXM

80. Windows 2008 64 bit and oracle client version compatibility issueshttp://blogs.esri.com/Dev/blogs/arcgisserver/archive/2009/10/19/Which-ESRI-Web-mapping-API-should-I-choose_3F00_.aspx http://blogs.esri.com/Dev/blogs/arcgisserver/archive/2009/03/24/Code-assistance-for-the-ArcGIS-JavaScript-API_3A00_-Aptana-Studio-plug_2D00_in.aspx

81. WisDOT ArcGIS Server Implementation WLIA Spring Annual 2011 ArcGIS Server Implementation … 1 – AGS Installation and Configuration – Installations will be performed on GIS servers at the FDC. 2 – AGS Web Service Optimization – The results from the AGS Recommendations Project are to be used to create best practices to author and deploy AGS web services. 3 – AGS Web Testing Methodology –This methodology will include a tool set and best practices to record and “play back” GIS workflows under user load scenario’s to determine scalability of AGS web services 4 – AGS Application Guidelines – Develop policies and guideline on how to develop AGS application on the intranet and extranet 5 – AGS Security – Protocols for AGS web service and application security are be implemented. These implementations are intended to fit into our current security infrastructure. 6 – Application Architecture Tuning –During the construction iterations of this project, it may be determined that additional tuning maybe needed to the current architecture or the newly implemented AGS architecture

83. AGS Application Testing

85. JMeter

87. AGS Infrastructure Stress Testing

88. AGS Application Staging Scripts

89. Unit Test Installation and Help Documents

90. Data Publishing Best Practices

91. JavaScript API Installations
