Hi Dana, ... Post 10.1, is there any chance the AGS and Desktop teams are working on a way to allow ArcGIS for Desktop to edit data accessed via SDS? ... I can't comment on the post-ArcGIS 10.1 development efforts at this time. It's much too early as we're working on completing the 10.1 release. ...

Hi Niall, ... Is this a known issue, is there a way to find draw speeds of layers that are ArcFM objects? You're correct, the GDBT 9.2 release was not designed to work with custom ArcFM objects. This is a known limitation of the developer sample. Hope this helps, ... View more

Craig and Todd, ... I wonder if there's an easier way to see the version dependents? Right, like a model builder-type utility that draws a tree diagram out?  That would rock. FYI, at ArcGIS 10.1, there are several new tools that make the management of ArcSDE geodatabases much easier. including an enhanced version manager dialog. From the Jack Pre-UC 2011 Q&A: > What are some of the enhancements to the geodatabase in ArcGIS 10.1? > Administering my enterprise geodatabase can be difficult. Are there any tools coming that will help with this process? Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Jason, Just to add onto Robert's post: You would simply publish a map document that contains the feature class(es) you want to enable Web editing on, as a map service with the feature service property activated.

Hi Dana, ... At the UC it was said you can now access spatial and tabular data in other RDBMS systems without SDE. At 10 this was true on a read-only basis with Query Layers. At 10.1, can users now also *edit* spatial data in non-SDE instances using "ArcGIS for Desktop" (ArcMap)? ... ArcGIS Server 10.1 will include a new technology component called Spatial Data Server (SDS). It is a separate installation from ArcGIS Server and will be included with all editions of ArcGIS Server. SDS is a low-memory footprint application that enables you to publish feature services of your vector data stored in a database or geodatabase. SDS will allow you to edit spatial data in a standard database and does not require ArcSDE technology. Editing for SDS is done via the REST API only which ArcMap does not support at this time. From Jack's 2011 pre-UC Q&A: How does ArcGIS Server 10.1 improve access to databases? How is ArcGIS Server 10.1 more IT friendly? More information will be available in the ArcGIS 10.1 help documentation, which should be available when ArcGIS 10.1 beta starts. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi there, ... I am trying to understand how to create a feature template and how should I refer it to a map, so that I can create a feature service and use it in my web clients. Do I need ArcMap to refer a map and enable the feature class? Yes, you will need ArcMap to set-up and enable feature templates on your editable data layers in your map document. Then publish your map with the feature service property enabled. Please review the documentation that I referenced in my previous posts. Hope this helps, ... View more
