Next steps

The content in this site allows you to explore specific topics of interest or simply peruse an entire design pattern or technical pillar. As you get more familiar with the content, you can keep reading (diving in at different levels of detail or depth), get hands-on experience by designing or prototyping your own systems based on one of the ArcGIS system patterns, or start engaging in conversation with an Esri expert, partner, or your peers.

As the community of ArcGIS system designers, builders, and operators grows, this site may expand to offer community discussion or contribution options or provide a forum for users to discuss architectural topics or decisions. In the meantime, consider engaging with the Esri Community.

The content in this website will be updated several times a year to evolve and stay current with changes in ArcGIS and IT technology, as well as the use of GIS across industries. Additional content will also be added to the Library as it becomes available. The followings topic areas or themes are among those being considered for future updates:

  • Logical and physical architecture guidance
  • Industry-specific reference architectures and test studies
  • IT-focused case studies
