Hi, I'm a (Java) software developer trying to understand ESRI. In doing so, I'm trying to understand the concepts/terminolgy, so if I am off, please let me know! background: I understand a Feature Service is basically a Web Service. You query it and it returns data to be displayed. A traditional web service can be setup to send a checksum along with the data...I can then run the same checksum on the data I received and compare to see if they match (if they dont, then I know I need to re-request the data). Does ESRI support this? Is there a way to verfiy that the data I receive (based on the request I made) is indeed all the information that was sent? If not, is there a plan to implement this? if you are wondering why this would be important, imagine we are trying to get real-time fire data in an area with spotty internet connectivity. Not receiving all of that information could put people in danger. If they are notified that the data might be incomplete, it might save a life. Thanks
