The web applications are quite slow ... How to get better speed?
Hi Jamal,
FYI, this help topic has some suggestions: Optimizing map content for performance
Hope this helps,
Is Silverlight and flex are much faster than the .Net (ADF)?
Hi Jamal,
Many factors can affect and contribute to web application performance, such as: data content, types of web services, # of web services being displayed, type of source data behind the services, etc. It is difficult to provide a general answer.
Be advised that the ArcGIS Server Web ADF technology has been deprecated and we encourage our users to migrate and use the Web Mapping API technologies (JavaScript, Flex, and Silverlight).
FYI: ArcGIS 10 and 10.1 Deprecation Plan
Hope this helps,
I have still inquries regarding:
�?� Data content: does this include labeling/scales at which data (or labels) are visible/feature class VS images?
�?� Type of web service: what does this refer to?
�?� # of web services being displayed: does this refer to the number of started (active) services?
�?� Type Source data: does this refer to whether the database is SQL/Oracle/�?�
why the ADF is still the best in terms of functions available for non-developers? It is almost like the desktop application! Very powerful! When the Silverlight + Flex (viewers) will reach such level?
Hi Jamal,
Please review the documentation that I referenced in my first post in this thread, it discusses these topics.
For example, using cached services might be better for static/background data versus using dynamic services for only your business/operational data. Again, please read the help topic in my first post.
The more services your web application references, the more likely it may need more time to load them when the web application first loads in your web browser.
Sometimes having your web service source data in a file geodatabase might be faster than having it stored in an ArcSDE geodatabase.
I think your statement that the Web ADF application builder is the "best" is pretty subjective. Yes, it currently does have some more options, but it is built on legacy technology and does not support the new ArcGIS for Server functionality. We are actively working to improve both the Flex and Silverlight Viewers by augmenting their capabilities with each new release.
Hope this helps,

Hope this helps,
Which trades off can be made here between having the data stored in ArcSDE geodatabase to allow multiuser environment or storing it in file geodatabase for better performance?
I have been posting a question but never got an answer: are Silverlight and Flex (viewers) much faster that ADF?
Hi Jamal,
It depends on what functionality you want to enable in your web services. You'll need to have your data in an ArcSDE geodatabase to enable web editing. At 10.2, you can have the data stored in a spatially enabled database that is not a geodatabase.
Actually I believe I replied to this question already, please see my 2nd post earlier in this thread.
Hope this helps,
