Quick Survey
1. How many attendees are using the Cloud today?
2. How many plan on using the Cloud in 2016?
3. Which Cloud provider are you using?
4. Which Cloud OS, Windows or Linux?
5. What is your role in your organization?

What is the Cloud?
• Technology paradigm: shared processing resources and data to computers
and other devices on demand
• Organizations store and process their data in 3rd party data centers
• Rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort
Your own
physical machines

for Server
Benefits of the Cloud
• Rapid deployment of software, machine instances
• Easy to set up and administer
• No maintenance of physical hardware
• Lower cost of ownership
• Scalable
ArcGIS for Server and the Cloud
• ArcGIS for Server can be installed and run in the Cloud
- Infrastructure as a Service

ArcGIS for Server – Special Tooling
• We provide special machine images on
ArcGIS for Server – Supports Two Patterns
1. Server GIS Infrastructure
2. Web GIS Infrastructure
Server GIS Infrastructure Pattern
• System of Record
• Supports publishing of authoritative data from geodatabases

Web GIS Pattern in Your Own Infrastructure
• System of Record
• Supports hosted data as well as the app and collaboration infrastructure
• Does not replace Server GIS infrastructure

Getting Started with ArcGIS for Server in the Cloud
• Get Cloud subscription
- Amazon or Azure
• Get ArcGIS for Server software license – download from My Esri
- https://accounts.esri.com
• Get ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder – download from My Esri
for Server
ArcGIS for Server in the Cloud Strategy
• Esri provides images for Amazon and Azure
• Esri provides deployment tools
- ArcGIS for Server Cloud Builder
At 10.4, Amazon Images are Public in Regular AWS Regions
• Available to all AWS users
• No need to call Esri Customer Service
• Use Esri authorization files
• GovCloud – US Federal Gov
• Contact Esri Professional Service
• China Region
• Contact Esri Customer Service
AWS = Amazon Web Services
Setting Up Server GIS Infrastructure
• Amazon
- Use ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder for Amazon, or
- Use Amazon Cloud Formation
• Azure
- Use ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder for Azure
ArcGIS for Server Cloud Builder
• Lightweight desktop application
• Enables you to configure and deploy ArcGIS for Server in either Amazon or Azure
• Wizard-driven user experience
Demo
ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder for Azure
Cloud Builder Take Aways
• Best way to get started
• Used for launching deployments
• Powerful database options
• For Amazon and Azure
• Download from My Esri
Setting Up Web GIS Infrastructure
• Amazon
- Use Amazon Cloud Formation
• Azure
- Use ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder
Amazon Cloud Formation
• Enables you to create and provision AWS infrastructure deployments predictably
and repeatedly
• You create a template that describes all the AWS resources that you want
- CloudFormation takes care of provisioning and configuring those resources for you

High Availability in the Cloud
• Planned maintenance
- Cloud Provider making updates within their SLA that causes machine level downtime
• Unplanned maintenance
- Hardware failures in data centers
• Since both are out of your direct control, you need to design and plan upfront for
high availability if your application demands it
Availability
• The probability that a system will work as required when required
• Not available with Cloud Builder
• Create one image (Server site + file data)
- Launch multiple instances from it
- Silo architecture
• Every machine is an independent clone, no co-operation
• Use load balancer

Availability
• To support data editing workflows, need highly available database that every Server
site can see

Server GIS High Availability
• In Amazon, supported
- We provide configuration templates for this deployment
- Checklist
- Data – use RDS or local data
- Server directories – use AWS Auto-Recovery
- Configuration store – at 10.4, use Dynamo DB
• For Azure, on the road ahead for future support
Command Line Scripts to Create Cloud Formation Stack
• Python (10.3.1)
• PowerShell (10.3.1 & 10.4)
Demos

Cloud Platforms: Designed to Scale
• Software scales until bottleneck
• Easily add hardware to cloud
• ArcGIS Server designed to scale
- Since 10.1, new Server architecture more optimal
Single Cluster Mode
• Introduced in ArcGIS 10.3.1 for Server as an opt-in
• With ArcGIS 10.4 for Server it is the default for new and upgraded sites(unless the site being upgraded has multiple clusters)
Single cluster mode
Configuration Store(shared)
Road Ahead
• Better leverage Cloud storage
• Better use of Auto scaling
• Supporting specialized Servers, like GeoAnalytics
• Post deployment workflow support
- Adding machines to an existing site
