1) What does the "other schema changes" refer to in the fifth point?  I believe (I may be incorrect), the "other schema changes" might be related to the Network Dataset part. Someone else may add to this, if I am missing something. However, I can confirm that add\delete of Fields can be done, even when the Feature Class is Versioned. Obviously, its always better to test this on your own, if you are not sure, in a Test environment. 2) When you take the backup of the enterprise geodatabase using GDB and XML that is versioned, does it copy only dataset in Default version or all the versions?   If you are taking a Full database backup, from the SQL Server end, it will have everything. Data from all versions. If you are exporting the data as a Feature Class to another geodatabase or as XML workspace, it will only export data from the Version you are connected to while performing the Export. By default, ArcCatalog connects to DEFAULT version, but you can change this. Connect to a specific geodatabase version—Help | ArcGIS Desktop  3) Does ArcGIS Desktop keep a log file of all the geoprocessing tasks that are executed included the one mentioned above? I need to verify that I checked the Compress option. If you remember the approximate time, when you did this task, check the Compress Log in the geodatabase and verify if a Compress was performed. ... View more

Unregistering data as versioned—ArcGIS Help | ArcGIS Desktop  However, you must unregister a feature dataset as versioned when you want to do one of the following: Create a topology. Create a geometric network. Add or remove a feature class from a geometric network. Create a network dataset. Add or remove a feature class from a network dataset or make other schema changes. You did not perform any of the above listed operations. You just added\deleted some fields, which could have been done anyway. Your assumption is correct, the data was lost because you did not perform the compress. The Compress operation moves all edits from the Delta tables (a- and d- tables) to the Base\Business Table. Even if you do Reconcile\Post on a daily basis, the edits remain in the Delta tables till you perform the Compress. So as soon as you unregistered as Versioned, without performing the compress, everything in the Delta tables was lost.....leading to the observed scenario. ... View more

Jamal, as has been pointed out by others, ArcGIS Pro is not designed in the same manner as ArcMap. Things are different in some respect, for the betterment. So you will not find everything same as ArcMap. This does not mean that this is an issue in ArcGIS Pro which needs "fixing". This is as designed. If you have found a flaw in the design, report it to Esri Tech Support or maybe https://community.esri.com/community/arcgis-ideas?sr=search&searchId=5eb4e739-c104-4d10-aacf-0076f6f3e785&searchIndex=0. But otherwise, you will slowly have to explore ArcGIS Pro and look at the new functionalities, features and get used to these changes‌. ... View more

Questions and Answers | 2017 Esri User Conference  Is there a plan to allow publishing of services from ArcGIS Pro directly to ArcGIS Server? No. The introduction of ArcGIS Enterprise, which integrates Portal for ArcGIS, signifies a shift from the client-server pattern to a Web GIS pattern that takes full advantage of the geoinformation model. A key design concept of Web GIS systems – such as ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise - is organizing a collection of items in a portal. Accessing this portal from any device, anywhere, at any time allows you to use, create, and share geographic information throughout your organization, the community, and openly on the web. This information includes items like maps, scenes, layers, analytics, and apps. ArcGIS Server on its own is not capable of integrating into this model without the additional capabilities and content management functionality provided through a portal. For many of today’s advanced GIS service types, including vector tile layers, feature layers, and more, the service by itself does not contain all the information used to style or describe the results. Instead some of this information is part of the corresponding portal item, which gives more flexibility for modifying or changing content on-the-fly instead of going through the full publishing workflow. ArcGIS Server is a crucial component of ArcGIS Enterprise and can be thought of as the engine behind the scenes, but it does not stand alone in the modern GIS.
