What's new for ArcGIS Enterprise 11.5 on Amazon Web Services

The 11.5 release of ArcGIS Enterprise on Amazon Web Services (AWS) includes the new options and changes described in the sections below.

Changes to ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder for Amazon Web Services

The following have changed in ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder for Amazon Web Services at this release:

  • ArcGIS Enterprise deployments created with the 11.5 Cloud Builder app and ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder Command Line Interface for Amazon Web Services include an object store. If you use file system storage, the ArcGIS Data Store object store deployed in single-instance mode is created on the primary instance. If you use cloud service storage, the object store is created in Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3).
  • After you upgrade an ArcGIS Enterprise deployment, configure an object store for the deployment.

New or updated CloudFormation templates

The following changes have been made to the CloudFormation templates that are provided by Esri with the 11.5 release:

New template

A new CloudFormation template is available for 11.5 to deploy a single-machine ArcGIS Video Server site.

Changes to existing templates

Several changes have been made to CloudFormation templates provided by Esri at this release as a result of changes in ArcGIS Data Store and a few default values have changed.

Changes in versions and support

  • Two new AWS regions are supported—ap-southeast-7 and mx-central-1.
  • When you upgrade a primary-standby graph store using any method, the graph store is placed in single instance mode and contains only one EC2 instance after upgrading.
  • The ArcGIS Data Store tile cache data store is deprecated. You can upgrade an existing tile cache data store, and existing hosted scene layers continue to function. However, you must configure an object store with the deployment. You must also migrate existing hosted scene layer caches to the object store, because 11.5 is the last release to support the tile cache data store.
    Note:

    If you upgrade the deployment using a CloudFormation template provided by Esri, you may need to update IAM role policies before you configure the object store.

  • See the latest deprecation notices on the Esri support site for a list of additional deprecated functionality.
