Product Overview

A Platform for Building Enterprise GIS Applications

ArcGIS Server is a new product that adds full serverside GIS capabilities to the ArcGIS family of products. ArcGIS Server is a platform for building enterprise GIS applications that are centrally managed, support multiple users, include advanced GIS functionality, and are built using industry standards. ArcGIS Server manages geographic resources, such as maps, locators, and GIS software objects, for use by applications.

Developers can use ArcGIS Server to build focused Web applications, Web services, and other enterprise applications such as those based on Enterprise JavaBeans. Developers can use ArcGIS Server to build desktop applications that interact with the server in client/server mode. ArcGIS Server also supports out-of-the-box use by ArcGIS Desktop applications for server administration, simple mapping, and geocoding over a local area network or the Internet.

ArcGIS Server, like the entire ArcGIS system, is built and extended using software components called ArcObjects.
The ArcGIS Server ArcObjects are the same ArcObjects that are at the core of all the ArcGIS products: ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Engine, and ArcGIS Server.

ArcGIS Server consists of two primary components: a GIS server and an Application Development Framework (ADF) for .NET and Java. The GIS server hosts ArcObjects for use by Web, enterprise, and desktop applications. It includes the core ArcObjects libraries and provides a scalable environment for running ArcObjects on a server. ADF allows you to build and deploy .NET or Java desktop and Web applications that use ArcObjects running within the GIS server.

ADF includes a software developer kit (SDK) with software objects, Web controls, Web application templates, developer help, and code samples. It also includes a Web application run time, which allows you to deploy Web applications without having to install ArcObjects on your Web server.
