Advanced Cloud Caching for ArcGIS: Deliver faster maps, reduce server load, and cut cloud storage costs

Modern GIS depends on cached layers for speed and performance—but not all caches are created equal. As datasets scale from gigabytes to terabytes, traditional server-based caching can drive up costs, strain infrastructure, and limit growth.
In this advanced webinar, we move beyond basic raster tiles to show how you can cache imagery, vector, elevation, and 3D layers directly in cloud object storage like Amazon S3 and Azure Blob. You’ll learn how to offload heavy workloads from ArcGIS Server, avoid costly storage expansion, and deliver faster maps and scenes at scale.
You’ll see how to publish and use:
  • Cached map image layers for offline basemaps
  • Cached imagery layers that still support feature queries
  • Cloud-cached vector tile layers for scalable, flexible base maps
  • Elevation layers and contours optimized for visualization
  • 3D scene layers combining terrain, buildings, and symbology

Whether you manage massive imagery archives, build immersive 3D scenes, or support enterprise GIS users, this session will help you match the right cache type to the right use case.

This webinar builds on our previous session, Cloud Ready Imagery for Distributed Teams: How to Consolidate, Cache and Collaborate, and is ideal for ArcGIS Enterprise architects, administrators, and developers working with large, complex datasets.

Why Esri’s ArcGIS Imagery Specialty Matters and Why ROK Technologies Was Among the First to Earn It

Across every industry, GIS teams are generating more imagery than ever before, from high-resolution aerials to drone collections; from elevation surfaces to reality-capture datasets. And don’t forget the decades of legacy TIFFs, MrSids, and assorted other imagery formats stored on hard drives, servers, and virtual machines.  For many organizations, putting this imagery to work is […]
