Hi all, I'm running FME Desktop 2012 and I have an instance of ArcServer with SDE on Amazon EC2.  This instance hosts/runs our publicly accessible GIS maps/apps etc.

 

 

Is it possible to write data to my SDE GDB sitting on this Amazon instance using FME workbench?

 

Thanks,

Steve

Hi,

 

 

this should be no problem. Just make sure that:
  • you are connecting to the correct elastic IP or your public DNS of your EC2 instance
  • Add a security group with the correct TCP rules
    • for connecting to an SDE service the default port is 5151
    • for an Oracle direct connect the default port is 1521
    • not sure about the default ports for an MSSQL connect...
  • these ports need to be open on your instances windows firewall also
  • on client side (where you run FME Desktop) of course also the ports should no be blocked by a firewall or proxy

Regards,

Tino
