ArcGIS Solutions align with your business needs, transform your use of ArcGIS, and help maximize your investment in location-based data and technology. They leverage the power of ArcGIS and your authoritative data to help you improve operations, gain new insight, and enhance services. Each solution generally includes one or more applications, surveys, maps, feature layers, and ArcGIS Pro projects that can be configured to meet your needs.
Many organizations deploy ArcGIS Solutions that align with their business needs and use them as-is. Other organizations may deploy ArcGIS Solutions and configure them to meet specific needs they have. When ArcGIS Solutions don't fit your organization's needs, they can still be used as inspiration for your specific project and the ArcGIS configurations you might create.
There are several deployment options that can reduce the time it takes to deploy geoenabled solutions in your organization and increase the business impact they make. Quickly deploy fully supported ArcGIS Solutions in your ArcGIS Online organization or ArcGIS Enterprise portal on infrastructure you manage.
The ArcGIS Solutions app is used to deploy a solution in your ArcGIS Online organization and Enterprise, starting with the 10.9 release. The app is accessible in the app launcher when you sign in to your organization or portal. If you are using ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5 through 10.8.1, you can use ArcGIS Pro and the ArcGIS Solutions Deployment Tool to deploy an ArcGIS Solution.
To deploy an ArcGIS Solution, you must have a Creator or GIS Professional user type. A level 2 member is required for ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7 and earlier.
Yes. You can deploy multiple versions of an ArcGIS Solution in a single organization. In the ArcGIS Solutions app, select a solution you have already deployed and click Get Now or Deploy Now to deploy another copy of the solution.
If you are using the ArcGIS Solutions Deployment Tool, ensure you disable Use Existing Items in the Organization in the Options menu. Then select a solution you have already deployed and click Deploy to deploy another copy of the solution.
The version of an ArcGIS Solution is visible on the solution item's settings page. To deploy a new version, select the ArcGIS Solution and click Get Now or Deploy Now.
When you deploy the new version, a new folder will be created in your organization and the updated, or new, items will be placed in the folder. Existing items will not be updated or deleted.
After you deploy an ArcGIS Solution, you can load existing data into the layers provided. Keep in mind, each of the layers are designed to support the maps and applications provided in the solution and in many cases will require content to function properly. If you do not have this content in your existing layers or data, the ArcGIS Solution may not work as designed.
Yes. The ArcGIS Solutions website offers links to many learning resources, including the help system, guided lessons on the Learn ArcGIS website, and training courses offered by Esri Academy. You can see what's new in the current solution release and read the latest blog posts by ArcGIS Solution product engineers.
