Upgrading to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 will require a bit more preparation than previous upgrades.\u00a0 This release will be the first time we have increased the major version number of ArcGIS Server, now part of ArcGIS Enterprise, since ArcGIS 10.0 was released in 2010.\u00a0 We are moving to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 because of the significant under-the-hood changes in technology for our Windows and Linux deployment options.<\/p>\n
In this blog we will cover what exact changes you can anticipate, as well as what you can do to make sure your upgrade to 11.0 is successful \u2013 including considering upgrading to 10.9.1 before upgrading to 11.0.<\/p>\n
ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 has plenty of exciting new features, in addition to the changes covered in this blog.\u00a0 \u00a0Stay tuned for a blog on new features in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 coming later this summer!<\/em><\/p>\n
Changes coming in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0<\/h1>\n
You can anticipate the following changes in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Removal of the ArcMap-based runtime<\/a><\/li>\n
- Move of ArcGIS Enterprise SDK to .NET 6<\/a><\/li>\n
- Removal of classic Esri Story Map templates<\/a><\/li>\n
- Removal of ArcGIS Dashboards Classic<\/a><\/li>\n
- Removal of Presentation for Map Viewer Classic<\/a><\/li>\n
- Removal of many Configurable App templates<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Removal of the ArcMap-based runtime<\/h2>\n
The removal of the ArcMap-based runtime<\/a> is one of the biggest changes coming in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0.\u00a0 In version 10.9.1 and earlier, the ArcGIS Server component includes two internal runtimes: an ArcMap-based runtime for services published from ArcMap and an ArcGIS Pro-based runtime for services published from ArcGIS Pro. ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 will be the first release to only include the ArcGIS Pro-based runtime, meaning it will no longer be possible to publish new services using ArcMap or run services that are using the ArcMap-based runtime.\u00a0 It will also no longer be possible to administer ArcGIS Server using ArcMap or ArcCatalog.\u00a0 More background on this topic can be found in our Removal of the ArcMap-based runtime from ArcGIS Enterprise blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n
If you upgrade to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 with ArcMap-based services present, compatible ArcMap-based services will be migrated to the ArcGIS Pro-based runtime during the upgrade.\u00a0 ArcMap-based services that can\u2019t be automatically migrated will be stopped after an upgrade to 11.x and will require additional work.\u00a0 Compatible services include map services, feature services image services, and geodata services.\u00a0 Non-compatible services include services using deprecated data sources or with ArcObjects-based Server Object Extensions (SOEs) and Server Object Interceptors (SOIs), geocode services, geoprocessing services, network analysis services, and schematics services.\u00a0 These services will need to be manually migrated to the ArcGIS Pro-based runtime.\u00a0 For more information on this, see the Manually migrating services from the ArcMap-based to the ArcGIS Pro-based runtime tech paper<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Move of ArcGIS Enterprise SDK to .NET 6<\/h2>\n
ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 is the last release to support .NET Framework 4.x-based SOEs and SOIs<\/a>.\u00a0 ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 will support .NET 6.<\/p>\n
If you are using .NET Framework-based SOEs and SOIs, begin planning for a move to .NET 6 at this time by identifying any .NET core library changes that will affect existing solutions as well as finding .NET 6 versions of any third-party libraries that are used.<\/p>\n
The APIs exposed in the ArcGIS Enterprise SDK will include some minor breaking changes in addition to the move to .NET 6. Your use of ArcGIS Enterprise SDK APIs will also need to be reviewed when moving to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0. These API changes will impact both .NET and Java-based extensions. Any development impact related to these API changes is expected to be minimal, but all extensions will at minimum need to be recompiled for 11.0. If you have extensions from partners or other external suppliers, you will need to get updated extensions from them.<\/p>\n
Removal of classic Esri Story Map templates<\/h2>\n
ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 is the last version to include classic Esri Story Maps templates<\/a> for both authoring new story maps and for viewing existing story maps created using these templates.\u00a0 ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 will no longer include the ability to create new classic Esri Story Maps nor view existing Story Maps created with the classic templates.<\/p>\n
If your organization is using one of the classic templates, be sure to upgrade your stories to current-generation products prior to upgrading.\u00a0 For classic stories that are still in active use, we recommend recreating them with ArcGIS StoryMaps.<\/p>\n
Several resources exist to help you make the switch to ArcGIS StoryMaps:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Moving to the new ArcGIS StoryMaps<\/a>\u00a0: a helpful guide for transitioning<\/li>\n
- Getting started with ArcGIS StoryMaps<\/a>\u00a0: a step-by-step tutorial for beginners<\/li>\n
- Discover the possibilities with ArcGIS StoryMaps!<\/a>\u00a0: a collection of over a dozen articles and tutorials<\/li>\n
- Recreating a classic story with ArcGIS StoryMaps<\/a>\u00a0: a look at how to give a classic story new life<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
If you upgrade to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 with a classic Story Map template present, the item will show up in your Content with a \u201cRetired\u201d badge. Though you can view the item, you will no longer be able to access the application.<\/p>\n
Removal of ArcGIS Dashboards Classic<\/h2>\n
Similar to classic Esri Story Map templates, ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 is the last version to include ArcGIS Dashboards Classic<\/a> in favor of the new version of ArcGIS Dashboards that provides the same functionality but is more performant, scales to handle high demand, leverages the latest and greatest mapping innovations, and includes new data visualizations, including tables, and features such as advanced formatting, data expressions, and more.<\/p>\n
Though you won\u2019t notice much of a change when ArcGIS Dashboards Classic is retired, because your existing dashboards will continue to just work and upgrade themselves, starting with ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0, you will no longer be able to create or edit dashboards with ArcGIS Dashboards Classic.\u00a0 More on this can be found in our ArcGIS Dashboards Classic is Retiring blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Removal of Presentation for Map Viewer Classic<\/h2>\n
ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 is the last version to include Presentation for Map Viewer Classic<\/a>.\u00a0 Presentation for Map Viewer Classic has been superseded by Exhibit, an ArcGIS Instant App that will be introduced with ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0.\u00a0 It is recommended that all existing presentations be retired before upgrading to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0.<\/p>\n
Removal of many Configurable App templates<\/h2>\n
ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 is the last release to include all Configurable App Templates<\/a>.\u00a0 Starting with ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0, all Configurable App Templates with the exception of those listed below will be retired and removed from ArcGIS Enterprise.<\/p>\n
Available in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Basic Viewer<\/li>\n
- Compare<\/li>\n
- Crowdsource Manager<\/li>\n
- Crowdsource Polling<\/li>\n
- Crowdsource Reporter<\/li>\n
- GeoForm<\/li>\n
- Image Mask<\/li>\n
- Image Visit<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Similar to the classic Story Map templates, if you upgrade to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 with one of the retired Configurable Apps present, the item will show up in your Content with a \u201cRetired\u201d badge. Though you can view the item, you will no longer be able to access the application.\u00a0 The templates that are still supported will continue functioning the same as in previous versions.<\/p>\n
Rest assured, ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 will still contain Map Viewer and<\/strong> Map Viewer Classic.<\/em><\/p>\n
Avoid problems by upgrading to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1<\/h1>\n
With all the changes to anticipate in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0, the prospect of upgrading may feel a bit more daunting than usual \u2013 and that\u2019s okay!\u00a0 While upgrades from ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7 to 11.0 will be supported, this whole process doesn\u2019t have to be daunting; consider upgrading to Enterprise 10.9.1 before making the upgrade to 11.0.<\/p>\n
There are a few reasons to consider upgrading to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 before 11.0.<\/p>\n
Migration tooling to help transition from ArcMap-based to ArcGIS Pro-based runtime<\/h2>\n
ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 and 10.9.1 has migration tooling to help ease your transition to the ArcGIS Pro-based runtime.\u00a0 These migration tools include:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Edit Runtime<\/em> operation \u2013 this operation is available through ArcGIS Server Manager and allows for compatible service runtimes to be migrated one at a time.<\/li>\n
- UpdateArcMapServices utility \u2013 this utility is a command line utility that comes installed with ArcGIS Server and allows for compatible service runtimes to be analyzed and to be migrated all at once.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
These migration tools migrate all compatible map and image services.\u00a0 In 10.9.1 we also introduced the ability to migrate geodata services as well through these migration tools.<\/p>\n
To learn more about the migration tooling introduced in 10.9, be sure to check out the blog on migrating services to the ArcGIS Pro-based runtime in ArcGIS Enterprise<\/a>. Also visit the technical paper for more information on manually migrating your services: Manually migrating services from the ArcMap-based to the ArcGIS Pro-based runtime<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Optional ArcMap Runtime Support feature<\/h2>\n
In ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 we introduced the ability to disable the ArcMap Runtime Support feature.\u00a0 This means you can remove the ArcMap-based runtime from ArcGIS Server.\u00a0 This is ideal if your organization fits into one of two criteria:<\/p>\n
- \n
- You need to remove Python 2.x from your system<\/li>\n
- You are ready to migrate fully to the ArcGIS Pro-based runtime<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
More on this can be found in our blog: ArcMap Runtime Support: to disable or not to disable?<\/a><\/p>\n
ArcGIS StoryMaps, ArcGIS Dashboards, and ArcGIS Instant Apps<\/h2>\n
ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 is the only release to include Esri Story Map classic templates, ArcGIS Dashboards Classic, and all of the ArcGIS Configurable apps side by side ArcGIS StoryMaps, ArcGIS Dashboards, and ArcGIS Instant Apps.\u00a0 Take advantage of all of these applications being in one release by being able to create new apps in the same organization as your old ones \u2013 meaning you\u2019ll be ready to go when upgrading to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0.<\/p>\n
ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 will be supported until 2027<\/h2>\n
Not only is ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 a long-term support release<\/a>, guaranteeing support into until December 2027<\/a> \u2013 but it also is the last long-term support release of ArcGIS Enterprise to include all of these features we\u2019ve covered in this blog.\u00a0 This means that you have plenty of time to plan and execute upgrading to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0, once your organization is ready.<\/p>\n
- UpdateArcMapServices utility \u2013 this utility is a command line utility that comes installed with ArcGIS Server and allows for compatible service runtimes to be analyzed and to be migrated all at once.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
- Edit Runtime<\/em> operation \u2013 this operation is available through ArcGIS Server Manager and allows for compatible service runtimes to be migrated one at a time.<\/li>\n
- Getting started with ArcGIS StoryMaps<\/a>\u00a0: a step-by-step tutorial for beginners<\/li>\n
- Move of ArcGIS Enterprise SDK to .NET 6<\/a><\/li>\n
- Removal of the ArcMap-based runtime<\/a><\/li>\n
