For anyone working with Python on the Esri platform, the ArcGIS API for Python is one of the most exciting things to come along in quite a few years. The API is well-structured, easy to set up, and even easier to use. By abstracting away much of the overhead typically involved in working with the REST API, the ArcGIS API for Python allows you to get more done with less code in less time. In this chapter, we looked at how to get set up to use the API. We also wrote code to change map service URLs and create a web map inventory. We scratched the surface of the pandas library, showing how to use DataFrames, one of the most prevalent data structures in pandas, to not only display data in a Jupyter Notebook but also how to use DataFrames as methods to move data into the GIS. Next, we looked at ways to interrogate users and groups in the GIS and methods to work with and manage them. Finally, we looked at how the ArcGIS API for Python lets us work with features and how easy it is to translate...

Overview of this book
ArcGIS Enterprise, the next evolution of the ArcGIS Server product line, is a full-featured mapping and analytics platform. It includes a powerful GIS web services server and a dedicated Web GIS infrastructure for organizing and sharing your work. You will learn how to first install ArcGIS Enterprise to then plan, design, and finally publish and consume GIS services. You will install and configure an Enterprise geodatabase and learn how to administer ArcGIS Server, Portal, and Data Store through user interfaces, the REST API, and Python scripts.
This book starts off by explaining how ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5.1 is different from earlier versions of ArcGIS Server and covers the installation of all the components required for ArcGIS Enterprise. We then move on to geodatabase administration and content publication, where you will learn how to use ArcGIS Server Manager to view the server logs, stop and start services, publish services, define users and roles for security, and perform other administrative tasks. You will also learn how to apply security mechanisms on ArcGIS Enterprise and safely expose services to the public in a secure manner. Finally, you’ll use the RESTful administrator API to automate server management tasks using the Python scripting language. You’ll learn all the best practices and troubleshooting methods to streamline the management of all the interconnected parts of ArcGIS Enterprise.
