Distributed Geodatabase Development

—Gary MacDougall and Premjit Singh

ArcGIS provides the functionality to build systems that manage and distribute data. This session will focus on the distributed geodatabase internals and its programming API and integration with external systems. The key elements of geodatabase replication will be discussed including the replication state model and replica synchronization using delta files (i.e., XML) and the geodata server. Real-world examples will be used to discuss various workflows and best developer practices.
