What type of web is mapping?
Static web maps Static web pages are view only with no animation and interactivity. They are only created once, often manually and infrequently updated. Typical graphics formats for static web maps are PNG, JPEG, GIF, or TIFF (e.g., drg) for raster files, SVG, PDF or SWF for vector files.

Can you use ArcGIS Online overlay raster data?

In the mean time the work around is to host your own GeoServer and serve up a raster layer as a WMS and then consume that WMS layer from one of the cloud based offerings.
How are rasters used in a spatial data model?
Rasters are spatial data models that define space as an array of equally sized cells, arranged in rows and columns, and composed of single or multiple bands. Each cell contains an attribute value and location coordinates. Images are often referred to as rasters.
