Background
I have a lot of, I mean a lot of rasters (GeoTiffs, around 10000) stored in a PostgreGIS database. I have developed a website and I want to allow users to extract a raster based on its storage date and display it on a base map. The following image is expressing an example of what I wan to do.
I have used ArcGIS for Server 10.2, PostgreSQL 9.2, Windows 7 Ultimate, OpenLayers, and back-end is written in ASP.net MVC.
Should I automatically publish each raster as a map service once user extracts his/her required raster?

No publish all rasters as part of a single service. Let the WMS/WFS query handle which raster is provided to the user – nmtoken Sep 12 '17 at 7:16
