Philip - I appreciate your feedback and maybe it's just the way I'm thinking about it. However, to answer you specifically, I found this in this thread (https://community.esri.com/thread/191678-arcgis-data-store-and-rdbms#comment-672633 ) Release of the Deprecated Features Plan for ArcGIS 10.5.1 | Support Services Blog ArcGIS 10.5.1 is the last release to support anything other than the Data Store product as a data store for a Hosting Server. So, from where I sit (the CIO seat - so I'm no expert), this kind of language suggests that there will be functionality available thru the Data Store technology that won't be available in legacy configurations. As I think about it, this part of my original question is moot. Until there's a supported way for me to see what's inside the Data Store, I can't use it anyway (from a HIPAA compliance perspective) since it's a bit of a black box. And this won't happen until enough HIPAA-covered entities come to the same realization. So thanks for your help. We're going to give some of your non-supported suggestions a try and make a determination if they'll ever be officially supported.

Would you agree that if ESRI is only adding advanced features to the ArcGIS Data Store functionality, for all intents and purposes, "ESRI is moving users to use the Relational Data Store"?

Of course. I have DBAs to handle such things. I'm guessing as people gain more experience with the +/- of the Data Store, solutions will present themselves.

Thanks so much for the response. I've spent two days with ESRI Tech Support and not one suggested any of this - I'm guessing they're not allowed to. If I can get any of your suggestions to work, that will be a success for us. We do not need to change anything in the Data Store - just read what is in there.

We've recently upgraded to 10.6.1 and found out that ESRI is moving users to use the Relational Data Store. However, we've also come to realize that you can't "see" (i.e. attach to Data Store and write SQL query) what's in the Data Store. As a HIPAA covered entity, I don't believe we can in good faith use this technology with these limitations. In some ways, we're wondering if ESRI is moving backwards (i.e. back towards proprietary database technologies). I understand that the Data Store backend is PostgreSQL; however, I'd like ESRI to add functionality so we could browse the Data Store in ArcCatalog and/or allow us to attach to the PostgreSQL Data Store and query using SQL. Until this happens, we won't be using the Relational Data Store.
