MapServer or FeatureServer for FeatureLayer (not for editing)

[RichardBetts]

Hi,

If I don't intend to Edit, is there any advantage to using the FeatureServer over the MapServer resource for a FeatureLayer?

Thanks

Richard

Technically, there is no difference if not editing the feature.
The feature server will only show up when "feature access" turns on before publishing the server.

No, I don't think so.

maybe

• custom/dynamic symbolization


• mouseover events


• renderers


• dynamic definition expressions
