Cloud Based IT Infrastructure for the ArcGIS Platform

Tue, 28 May 2013 21:38:00 GMT

Hello folks! Yvonne Jones here, Marketing Manager, with ROK. We will get back on schedule with our newsletter frequency. For this month's update we have decided to pick the brain of our President, Mike Murphy and discuss his thoughts on the latest service that ROK is providing - Infrastructure as a Service.

YJ: Good Morning Mike, glad to have you on board this morning!

MM: Good Morning Yvonne, great to be here.

YJ: First of all, what does ROK's Cloud Based IT Infrastructure for the ArcGIS Platform provide to someone considering this service?

MM: If you don't have the IT resources in house, you are able to leverage our thin client technology via citrix to deploy your desktop licenses of ArcGIS for editing and maintaining your GIS data. Expending valuable time and resources to keep your software applications secure, fully maintained, and up-to-date is one thing you shouldn't have to worry about.

YJ: How does the service work?

MM: The client realizes the highest levels of security and reliability for their ArcGIS for Desktop applications and data. Our expert technical team will deploy, maintain, update, and optimize your ArcGIS for Desktop applications, as well as provide the infrastructure required to run them. No more keeping up with all the latest hardware specifications. We take care of that. At the same time, you will maintain complete control over your applications and your data.

YJ: What kind of feed back are you receiving for this service?

MM: Because GIS falls under the IT Department often, IT Directors love this service as it frees them up to focus on mission critical tasks. GIS users also enjoy this service because ROK acts as their back office for GIS support. Users consider ROK as their "hands-on" GIS Cloud. It is a win-win for everyone.

YJ: Is this service hard to implement?

MM: The process is fairly straightforward. First, we work with our clients to migrate their databases, applications and map services to our private cloud. Once everything is configured and tested internally, we provide temporary access using ArcGIS (ArcMap, ArcCatalog) through Citrix for the client to perform testing of the business processes. Once acceptance has been given, we can transfer the client's ArcGIS desktop licensing to the Citrix server and provide secure access to their data or desktops. At this point, it is business as usual for the client with ROK providing technical support and maintenance as needed.

YJ: Thank you so much for taking the time and letting me pick your brain.

MM: No problem, my pleasure.

Hosting GIS Data in the Cloud

Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:25:00 GMT

Welcome to Whiteboard Wednesday. Please watch and listen to our own, Jason Harris, discussing Hosting GIS Data in the Cloud. He touches on Amazon Web Services, ArcGIS Online, and ROK's ArcGIS Hosting Approach.

Does Customer Service Matter?

Thu, 10 Jan 2013 05:00:00 GMT

Hello folks! Yvonne Jones here, Marketing Manager, with ROK. For this month's update we have decided to pick the brain of our Sales Director Carey Jenkins and discuss her thoughts on customer service and its impact on the GIS community!

YJ: Good Morning Carey, glad to have you on board this morning!

CJ: Good Morning Yvonne, great to be here.

YJ: With all the options customers and potentials customers have for hosting GIS maps and/or data in the cloud, why choose ROK Technologies? What sets you apart from the others?

CJ: Let’s set product discussion aside for now and simply focus on service. What good is a product or service without support behind it? At ROK we focus on a custom experience. Every client is different and ever client has different needs. We pride ourselves on developing unique quality options for every client. Not only are the applications and maps unique per client, but every client gets personalized support for their services. Our team is thorough with the setup and will guide each client through any problem they may have. You are never without support from the ROK team. I think that makes us unique.

YJ: What about the product quality itself?

CJ: As an Esri business partner we are equipped with great knowledge of ArcGIS server and ArcGIS Online. Our team is well versed and can streamline the process for many clients. Not only that but we can create custom maps and applications as well. Whatever the client may need in regards to GIS map hosting we can handle with practiced care. With our team’s expertise and great customer service the clients are in for a great experience with our products.

YJ: So you mainly focus on GIS Map hosting and development?

CJ: We do emphasize our map hosting abilities but like I said we can create custom maps and applications as well. We can also create mobile applications. That way the clients can pass on their product to their customers in an easy to access form. Not only that but we are now partnered with eGroup and can host IT solutions and data in the cloud for our clients. We are evolving every day and finding new ways to bring solutions to our valued and potential clients. It is truly an exciting time for ROK technologies!

YJ: Wow! Ok so could you provide the readers with a scenario of a happy client and how they utilized your services?

CJ: Absolutely. We just received a raving testimonial from Franklin County in Alabama. This past summer, the Franklin County GIS Consortium used ArcGIS Online, together with map services hosted by ROK Technologies to create web maps for two local events.

The City of Russellville hosts an annual 4th of July celebration, attracting thousands of spectators. Also, in August, the City hosts a downtown festival, attracting dozens of vendors and thousands of patrons. Interactive web maps were used to display the locations of vendors, parking, first aid, attractions, and roadblocks, along with many other features. Public safety personnel and event organizers had access to maps showing the locations of emergency personnel, vehicles, and facilities.

ArcGIS Online was used because of the ability to embed the easy to use application within an existing website, use it in a mobile device, display map services hosted by ROK Technologies, and access a great variety of base maps.

They were very happy with the results!

YJ: You heard it best from our Sales Director. ROK Technologies really delivers in customer service and product. Way to go ROK!

Why host your GIS data in a cloud?

Mon, 29 Oct 2012 04:00:00 GMT

Hello folks! Yvonne Jones here, Marketing Manager, with ROK. For this week's update we have decided to pick the brain of our CTO Jason Harris and discuss his thoughts on GIS hosting and cloud services!

YJ: Good Morning Jason. We are very excited to hear your thoughts on this very hot and trending topic!

JH: Good Morning Yvonne, great to be here.

YJ: Let's jump right in to the thick of things and start off with, why is a cloud hosted GIS solution important?

JH: It is funny, when I first heard the term 'Cloud Computing' many years ago, I said to myself 'This just means a server that's sitting somewhere outside of your building, it just a new buzzword that the industry is pushing'. It didn’t take me long to realize just how wrong I was. It is all about data redundancy, security, speed, scalability, and optimal use of available computing power. GIS, like other industries, can take advantage of these real world benefits right now. All industries and organizations should want to serve their data faster, more securely, and of course less expensively - and using the Cloud to serve geographic data and services should be no exception.

YJ: How does one make an informed decision in regards to what program to choose?

JH: As the industry continues to mature, we are given more and more options when it comes to serving GIS through the cloud. There are many factors to consider when choosing a vendor or service. The very first thing I discuss when making recommendations to folks is how hands on do you want to be? Many people opt to use a service such as Amazon EC2, where you 'rent' an entire server in which you must administer from start to finish. From licensing, to publishing maps, server maintenance, etc. Everything. It is your server and you are ultimately responsible for it. It is not a role that some folks want to take on though. There can be some budgetary issues because the cost for this service can vary quite a bit from month to month due to bandwidth demand, extra CPU cycles, etc. You pay for that server even if it sits idle for hours. For the very high volume and demanding map services, along with the right personnel administer it, this option works well.

For folks that wish to take a more hands-off approach, the latest offering from Esri called ArcGIS Online is an excellent choice. It allows non technical users the ability to quickly and easily publish their maps and data to web using the power of the Esri hosted cloud. Simple web maps can be easily configured from a wealth of ready to use templates - and then shared within your organization, or the world. There can be some downsides to this service, mainly the limited ability to utilize the more advanced features of ArcGIS Server. ArcGIS online is a 'metered' solution meaning you pay for what you use - which can be both good and bad. As your monthly usage can vary widely, these situations can be difficult to budget for. Overall, if you are looking to get your feet wet in 'Cloud Hosted GIS' and looking to easily share your data, then ArcGIS Online is a great option.

Then there is a hybrid type of cloud solution, which I like to call the 'Personalized Cloud'. In this scenario, you partner with an existing company, such as ROK, to host GIS data and map services for you on their cloud. This approach allows you to be hands on, while maintaining all the benefits of the cloud infrastructure - such as scalability and redundancy. In addition, the full power of Esri's ArcGIS Server is exposed. However, you get one more very important benefit - the expertise of a dedicated team backing you up. Managing servers and dealing with intricacies of serving spatial data can be time consuming. When you have a talented team that is there to help, it can make all the difference. Using this approach allows you to focus on your core competencies, and leave the heavy-lifting and server maintenance to others.

YJ: Wow. Jason that is a pretty lengthy answer, could you narrow it down to the single most important point?

JH: Well Yvonne, it really all comes down to the economics of scalability. Some options use the 'metered' pricing tier, while others, such as ROK, use a fixed price. The very first thing that we do here at ROK is to talk to the customer. We are all developers at heart and understand what it takes to successfully launch a service or new web app. So, in these initial discussions, we get a good feel for the requirements and target audience. This lets us estimate out the resources needed and determine a fixed monthly price that won’t vary - and one that the customer is comfortable with. Let us look at this scenario - Suppose you are hosting an emergency management application during hurricane season along the gulf coast of Florida. As a hurricane approaches, more and more citizens use these hosted services to, for example determine an evacuation zone. This scenario would sharply raise your monthly bill, since more and more 'credits' were used. Again, as we discussed before, this can be a budget concern if using the metered approach. The good news is that service is not susceptible to this rapidly increasing load. The cloud is able to quickly scale up, allot additional bandwidth as needed - all to effectively serve your GIS services.

YJ: Ok, so you spent a good time on how but now tell us why to
choose a hosted GIS solution.

JH: We are all expected to do more with less these days. No matter which approach you take, the benefits of utilizing a cloud hosted GIS are compelling. Taking into consideration a lower total cost of ownership, server uptime/redundancy, scalability, along with far fewer management headaches, moving your GIS to the cloud just makes sense.

YJ: You heard it best from our resident CTO. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us here or contact Jason Harris at jharris@roktech.net.

The Cloud Evolution: Are you on board?

Thu, 18 Oct 2012 18:16:00 GMT

Cloud computing. A common term used here in the IT world but five years ago was a novelty for most of us. Cloud computing is changing the way companies do business. Can you and your company benefit from cloud services? The answer is absolutely. According to analytic data collected by Vertical-Cloud.com, by the end of 2013 small and medium-size businesses will have surpassed enterprises in cloud adoption with key verticals such as service, banking, education, and insurance.

The large appeal of cloud computing began with database storage. Cloud service allowed companies to move a bulk of their data and information to a cloud database, permitting them to free up internal server space and unload the costs of desktop programs. Companies were learning how to save money on operating and maintenance costs by using a cloud, thus freeing up their server for other potential revenue streams.

An important concern for most companies was and is security. Will their data be protected with cloud programs and will their client’s data be safe? Your systems are already as secure or insecure as they are and moving to the cloud doesn’t change that. The worst case scenario is that a cloud service might expose how weak your system’s securities are. Luckily cloud services are equipped to provide extra security to better protect you and your data.

But what is next for cloud computing? Companies are now looking for ways to evolve and change their business by using the cloud. They are asking how to provide services and products via the cloud that will benefit their customers and improve the bottom line. How can Cloud Services change and improve your business?

Custom Android App for ROK Mobile

Thu, 09 Aug 2012 04:00:00 GMT

It seems that apps are all the rage these days. With hand-held technology quickly becoming the norm for most Americans, it only made sense that ROK should develop a Geographic Information Systems application to help the user with all their GIS needs on the go. That is why ROK recently developed an Android application for use on the Motorola Xoom tablet. The app was designed for Davie County, NC, and developed with Adobe Flex and ArcGIS Server Flex API. This application takes advantage of Adobe Air - which allows you to write once, and deploy to many. This means that one code base can be compiled for use on Apple iOS devices (iPad, iPhone, etc), Android devices (Droid phones, Honeycomb tablets, etc), and Blackberry devices, thus making it one of the most versatile GIS apps available today.

This GIS application allows users to view and identify utility features, such as water meters, water mains, valves, and parcel addresses. Several search options are included for users to quickly locate Water Meters by Account, Owner Name and Meter ID. In addition to the Water Meters search, there is an Address search that allows users to quickly find a particular address. Finding your current location on the map is a snap, thanks to the integrated GPS capabilities. This has been very handy for field workers to view their current location in relation to map features. No more searching for that buried valve cover!

With this application, we are bringing Geographic Information Systems and Custom Mapping straight to the palm of your hand. It is now easier than ever to capitalize on the finest GIS Mapping resources available. Feel free to contact us today for more information on the brand new ROK Geographic Information Systems application.
