Hats interesting; I will take a look at my Azure box again and see if there is still a reference even with the URL Rewrite stuff listed.

Yes, the VM image in Azure doesn't use the Web-Adaptor; but IIS URL Rewriting in its place. Since the WA configuration requires a variety of settings that make it hard to store in a dynamic and elastic VM image; this makes it easier to setup a machine from the image with less time. If the Web-Adaptor approach is what you want; then use the ArcGIS Enterprise Builder app that you can download from my.esri.com.

I don't disagree with you Devin Doring‌ but I think for them its a strategic shift. When I asked them about being able to publish my own Geocoders to AGOL they pushed for me to just put a Feature-Class and query against it. That is a very different capability...

While this is a fascinating idea and would move us more to the idea of a cloud-gis; I have had discussions with #ESRI that this isn't easily doable. Mainly for the fact that geoprocessing can be deeply performance/resources intensive and doing so would require much more dynamic resources that typically can elastically scale. The answer I got was to host a cloud machine/s and host my services there and then use push the results to my AGOL instance.

Hi Thomas Jones‌ The Open-Data-Portal is hosted in AGO and is linking to data from other agencies but shared up to the AGO by our state collaborative; my Enterprise/Portal that I have is internal/non-publicly exposed so I am not sure if a collab would meet the need. Thanks

Is/was this a versioned DB? If so then you likely won't be able to reconcile it back. If not; you may be able to extract to a fGDB your tables then drop the DB, recreate it then reimport your tables & feature-classes.

Hi Thomas Jones‌, I am looking for something a little more direct; what you mention would require harvesting all content/links and loading it separately into my Portal instance. This creates redundancy and also seems to break with the #ESRI idea of being a system of portals.

Hi Brett, Good question, your first item in your list is your most comprehensive. As this will include your AGS and Datastore backups as well as the content information from your Portal install. I have setup on my machines a scheduled task to do a full-backup weekly; with incremental daily.

My State has a Open Data Portal that many agencies feed into; is there a way to have my portal consume all of the shared services into my Living Atlas section feed?

Sadly no, because of Auditing and Access-Control requirements we have to go with OS hosted shares for most items. Proper mapping of machines and distribution across your nodes helps a lot with reducing risk of contention and the needs to potentially have machines switch nodes. I went from a 3-node cluster to a 5-node, with one dedicated for cluster-class work. The mixture of SSD and HDD has been a great performance boost; and maxing out your nodes with the most RAM you can is a huge boost for DB machines.

Hi Daniel, from my view we never saw enough traction from ESRI on this. But I did just complete my second deployment of a full NUTANIX environment for my Server environment and am happy to talk about it. We did not go with the Desktop Virtualization route, we are purely on the converged Server/Storage path. Running VMWare/VSphere and Windows 2016/2019 VMs.

Yes, I have talked at UC about this a couple of times. The answer I got was to host a feature service and query against that. Explaining that you can't do the level of search logic with that work flow as a geocoder/locator would seemed to fall on deaf ears. I think the reason there is AGOL relies on PostGIS as a backend much like Portal does; so there is no real geoprocessing backend like you see with AGS.

Maen Khamis‌ I think you should preface that example with the "Street Name" locator to say if your business case allows. Since this has the potential if not used/applied properly to create significant location issues that the user trying to look for a address may not realize. For example; State Highway can run for 10s or 100s of miles, and span multiple jurisdictions; so not finding a Point Level or Interpolated Address Range location and rolling down to the given Street Name could have you off spatially but a significant margin. Now as GIS Practitioners we get that; but a casual/non-GIS user who is using a app in Portal or even ArcGIS for Office who geocodes a list of addresses may not get that nuance.
