This is really excellent information.
So as I understand it if I convert my Oracle tables to SDF, and use the SDFs
as layers in a Base Layer group, then seed the tile cache using Zac's tool,
it'll fly.
My next question is whether MapGuide will use the same set of tiles for base
layers that are

Well I've had a look in the Repositories/TileCache folder and it's obvious
that
Fusion or the Ajax
viewer, I think you can work around this by including two MapGuide maps,
one tiled and one untiled. My hope is that a future version of Fusion
(2.0?) will allow you to do this as well.

Forgive my ignorance. Use the base layer groups to generate tiles? Or
improve performance?

Have you looked at this tool?

Also, I have some php scripts that I used to make tiles that I could
send you if you are interested.

Hi George
Yes, I downloaded it, but it looks out of date to my eye. One of the
instructions is to replace the DLLs it comes with, with those from the
Enterprise bin folder. But the names of these files are mostly different so
I assumed it just doesn't work with the latest software.
I sent
Thanks, but as I understand, for Zac's tool to work, the tiles need to exist
first. I need to create tiles for non-tiled data held in Oracle.

OK, let me try and explain our predicament in a bit more detail.
We have MapGuide serving maps using data held in Oracle spatial tables. So
for example we have one table holding all the roads

We have MapGuide serving maps using data held in Oracle spatial tables.
So
for example we have one table holding all the roads for the UK. What we
want
to do is create a set of tiles at various zoom levels for this data so
I'm amazed that I've been goofing around with MapGuide for months and yet
I've only just discovered Base Layers. Thank you all so much for continuing
to say use base layers. I just tried it and the tiling is great, even on
our crummy development box.
I've got a few more things to try... but
have you tried using base layer groups rather than layer groups?

Is there a way to configure MapGuide to exclusively use a tile cache? The
reason I ask is that the initial enumeration of spatial objects in the
Oracle schema is really slow. Jason states that:

Yep, tiles are cache and therefore it will bypass oracle
completely once the tiled cache is seeded
I think that there may still be some issues due to the schema
fetches that are run during initialization. These will be be
alleviated somewhat in 2.1, and in newer versions of Fusion,
but I
I'm pretty much certain if the user has access and the tile exists,
depending on the viewing
technology the schema is bypassed. The tile cache service will
actually also create tile folders
for scales which are outside the scale range if requested.
