How does versioning work in an ArcSDE geodatabase?
Versioning allows multiple users in a multiuser geodatabase to edit the same data without applying feature locks or duplicating data. As you edit the ArcSDE geodatabase, you work within your own view or geodatabase state; no one else sees your edits until you save them. In other words, two editors who edit simultaneously see only their own edits.
How is data stored in an ArcSDE table?
Data is stored in tables in a DBMS. ArcSDE is the tool that allows you to use that data with GIS applications. Second, all data is stored in standard DBMS tables using data types available for the host database. ArcSDE uses and complements the base DBMS capability by adding a spatial component to the database.
How do I edit a geodatabase in ArcMap?
Establish a connection with the geodatabase. Register the data as versioned. Add the data to ArcMap. Start editing and make your edits. Review and reconcile any conflicts between the version being edited and the target version. Post changes to the parent database.
How does the spatial index work in ArcSDE?
ArcSDE builds a spatial index by applying a grid to the feature class. It records features that fall within each grid cell in an index table (the S table of the feature class schema). A feature that falls in more than one cell is listed in each. Grid cells with no data are not included in the table.

Can a geodatabase be edited in a different version?
Data in an ArcSDE geodatabase can be either versioned or nonversioned. If the geographic data is versioned, it can be edited in a specific version of the geodatabase. On the other hand, editing nonversioned data is the equivalent of performing standard database transactions.
What happens when you post a version on ArcGIS?
Other users reading the version you’ve posted to do not see the results of the post until they refresh their versioned workspaces. Posting cannot be undone, since you are applying changes to a version you are not currently editing. After posting, you can continue to make more edits in your edit session.
Is it possible to delete a version of ArcGIS?
You can delete a version, provided all its child versions are deleted. Only the version’s owner or the database administrator (the sde or dbo user) can delete a version.
Can you edit more than one version of ArcMap?
When you start editing in ArcMap, if your map references one version, that version is automatically opened for editing. You can only edit one version per edit session, so if your map references multiple versions, you must choose one of these to start editing. When you start editing, you work with your own representation of the version.
