Sep 16, 2015 at 9:37 comment added Farid Cheraghi @fallingdog , I suggest to close this thread (e.g. by marking as answer) and start a new question as it is more fit with the style of GIS SE website (one question per post). In this way you will a more narrow and precise answers.
Sep 15, 2015 at 22:10 comment added fallingdog Thanks for the feedback everyone. So, we can get an image server extension; therefor, we could serve the mosaic dataset. However, would it not be better (faster) to build a tile cache off of the mosaic and serve that as a map service? This is currently what we have in place for our web map app, but the cache is made off of a raster dataset not a mosaic dataset. resources.arcgis.com/en/communities/imagery/… blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2010/05/04/…
Sep 12, 2015 at 3:39 comment added Vince If you have the Image Server extension, then there's no reason not to serve the raster mosaics through AGS, and get the I/O benefit of not reading the FGDB over the LAN. If you don't have Image Server, then the question becomes whether a raster catalog in a map service out-performs a raster mosaic on a network share.
Sep 11, 2015 at 23:52 comment added Farid Cheraghi Considering you have an Image Server Extension license, I definitely suggest to go for mosaic dataset in a File Geodatabase. You will feel the performance gain as soon as you load all of your DBMS rasters into a mosaic dataset.
Sep 11, 2015 at 22:21 comment added fallingdog Thanks Farid. Just to be clear, you would suggest that we make file geodatabases with mosaic datasets and let people use them right off the network drive. You feel this would be better then providing a service of the mosaics with ArcServer?
Sep 11, 2015 at 19:32 comment added Vince You need to mention that Mosaic Datasets require an Image Server extension license to be served by ArcGIS Server.
