[mapguide-users] Base Layers that are based on Oracle Spatial data

Yes, I imagine there is a point at which base layers make more sense in,
like you say, high levels of usage.

I don't have much experience with tile caching and the new MapGuide, but
if the data is only being updated once per day or once every few days,
and you have high levels of usage on your web app, I'd have to believe
that you would get some kind of performance return from only having to
render those layers when they are actually modified...  Hmm.  I think
that was a run-on-sentence.

If the layer will be changing a lot, is there any point for it to be a
base layer at all? Just make it a regular dynamic layer...

	It would be useful to set a property on the layer like
InvalidateDate that would force tile-replacement for tiles that are
older than that date.  If this feature was available, it would be
possible to set up a trigger in Oracle to invalidate the tile cache for
affected layers.  I'd prefer this method to just deleting the cache,
because of the huge file IO caused by the delete, and because it would
reduce fragmentation of the volume.  This would be usable by other
external processes, such as daily SDF updates via FME, etc...

	As far as I understand it, only changes to the layer or map
definitions will be detected. For example change in the styling for the
layer. Changes to the actual data in Oracle will not be detected.

		Well, I've been told that Enterprise handles the changes
to data that is stored in the repositories.  From my understanding, data
that is changed in the repositories will be marked in someway so that
the tiles can be rebuilt as needed.    Can someone from Autodesk please
clarify this?

		My understanding of the current functionality of base
layers is that they don't update themselves based on an underlying data
change regardless of the source data type.  This would be up to you to
delete the images from your TileCache directory to force them to rebuild
the next time somebody viewed that map area.

		Does anyone at Autodesk (or anyone that has tested it
already) know if I use Oracle Spatial data for my base layers, will
Mapguide Enterprise know about the changes and update the tiles
accordingly?   I'm in the process of testing this and just wanted to
know if anyone has had any experience with it.

		 

		Thanks.
