ARCGIS 9 - Database Servers Tutorial

ArcSDE database servers are used to store, access, and administer

ArcSDE Personal and Workgroup geodatabases.

ArcSDE Personal is available free with ArcGIS Desktop at the

ArcEditor or ArcInfo license levels. ArcSDE Workgroup is licensed

with ArcGIS Server at the Workgroup level. Both provide you

with ArcSDE geodatabase functionality, such as versioned editing,

archiving, and replication. They differ from ArcSDE Enterprise

geodatabases in maximum size, number of connections, administration,

and customization.
