Arcgis Enterprise Data Storage Strategies

A data strategy is a comprehensive plan for how an organization will manage its GIS data, including collecting, storing, accessing, modeling, securing, and sharing data. It ensures data workflows are integrated, tailored to user needs, and can evolve over time. ArcGIS Enterprise supports various data types and architectures, including file-based data, enterprise geodatabases, cloud storage, and big data stores. When developing a data strategy, it is important to consider the goals, audiences, software, tools, data formats and documentation needed to power applications and share insights. Both public web GIS systems like ArcGIS Online and private ArcGIS Enterprise deployments can be used together to enable collaboration and complementary uses of data.

ArcGIS Enterprise: Data Strategies

Tom Shippee & Nana Y. Dei


Agenda

• What is a data strategy and why do you need one?


• ArcGIS Enterprise data landscape and architecture
• Working with data strategy building blocks

Note as the ArcGIS software evolves, so does the data that powers it!
Question you SHOULD be asking
The Why, How, What…

WHY HOW will my data be…. WHAT


-Goal -Collected or captured -Software applications
-Audience -Stored -Tools
-Maintained -Data
-Modeled and visualized -Documentation
-Secured and shared -Engineers
What is a data strategy?

A comprehensive plan for how your


organization will collect, store,
access, and manage, analyze and
share your GIS data.

A data strategy is feasible,


integrated, tailored to your
workflows and users, and evolves
as necessary.

Key ArcGIS data options available today
Storage Type Infrastructure Typical Uses Common Data format

• Local OS folders • Local data for ArcGIS Pro • Shapefile, CSV, txt
Files/Folders • Often on a network file share • Registered data store • File geodatabase
• Project packages • Raster/imagery

• RDBMS • Multi-user editing (versioning) • Feature class


Enterprise • Often managed by IT/DBA • Topology, attribute rules, etc. • Mosaic dataset
Geodatabase • Can be large scale • Registered data store • Parcel fabric
• Utility network, parcel mgmt

Hosted layers
ArcGIS • ArcGIS Enterprise component • Relational (feature) • Accessed as layer item in
• the Enterprise portal
Data Store • Supported three types Tile Cache (scene)
• Often on dedicate host • Spatiotemporal big data store
(real-time)

• Imagery/raster store • Standard file data formats


Cloud • IaaS  AWS & Azure
• Map & Image cache folders • Feature class/Query layer
• DbaaS  Azure SQL database
Storage • ArcGIS Data Store backup • CRF (cloud raster format)
• Amazon  PostgreSQL RDS • Cache raster format

• Hadoop
Big Data • Input to big data GeoAnalytics • Shapefile, delimited text
• Hive • ORC (optimized row col)
Storage • Parquet
How the data is managed…

Data you manage and provide to ArcGIS


• Data storage managed by you
User
• You provision, scale, tune, delete the underlying database
managed:
• You make it accessible to ArcGIS Enterprise by registering it
• Publish through a server connection (e.g., via ArcGIS Pro)

Data created and managed by ArcGIS


• ArcGIS Data Store instances or Enterprise managed folders
ArcGIS • Installed and/or configured as SW
managed: • Managed via application user interfaces, SDKs and/or APIs

Complementary public and private web GIS

ArcGIS Online
• Hosted data only
• Public content and open data
• Non-employees (volunteers, contractors)
• Increasing functionality
• Tracker for ArcGIS, Analytics for IoT
• Collaboration with ArcGIS Enterprise

ArcGIS Enterprise
• Registered data:
 File data & Enterprise geodatabases
 Continuous, multi-user datasets
• Hosted data:
• Data for self-service mapping
• Analysis results (feature & raster)
• Deploy onsite or in the cloud
• Collaboration with ArcGIS Online or Enterprise
Data Strategy building blocks
Bringing it all together
Start with the end goal
And then work backwards

• The end goal • Put the pieces together


- Dish XYZ for the buffet - Recipe and ingredients

- Persons with no allergies - Tools, kitchen, cooks


- Dish XYZ on the menu
Building a data strategy

• WHY is this use-case needed – what problem does it help solve?


- Define the business need

- Problem-driven, not solution-oriented

- Identify audience

- Dish: Feeding the hungry

• HOW will the business needs be represented in the data?


- How does the data model the real world problem?

- How will the data be collected and maintained?

- Making dish: How will the ingredients be combined?


Building a data strategy

• WHAT resource is needed to implement the solution?


- What data type will support the workflows?

(vector, raster, streaming data, etc)

- What data stores will support the workflows?

(file-based, DBMS, cloud stores, ArcGIS data store, etc)

- What applications will be used for data management?

- Who will assist in implementing the solution?

- Buffet dish: Kitchen, tools, recipe, chefs, & bussers
