Is it possible to implement Socrata Data lens in .net mvc - socrata

Recently i came to know about the socrata data lens feature.Is it possible to use this feature in my .net project?. if so is there a way to implement it in my code.I searched in many place but what i found was, how its working in the socrata. Please help me in this as am new to this.

Socrata Data Lens is a feature of our platform, and is not offered as an open source tool.
If you're looking for something you could use from within a .NET web application, you might want to check out VizWit which allows you to make DataLens-like visualizations that run within a web browser.

Training and experimentation system for developing software interfacing with SAP ERP

I am trying to find a good place to start for a potentially SAP related project.
Suppose I wanted to develop stand-alone software that could connect with an SAP ERP (S4/HANA) system and analyze material management and accounting data. What resources would I need to accomplish that? Where could I get an SDK/the proper training for this? How would I get a system to experiment on? I've tried Googling this question but there doesn't seem to be clear authoritative information on this and what I find also seems to be mostly about SAP Business One, which is a different product.
Insights would be much appreciated!
Thank you in advance,
Joshua
You must use REST/OData to connect to ECC and Hana S/4.
Currently, SAP has around 800+ REST APIs for SD/MM/PP/FICO, and almost every quarter, new APIs are added to Hana S/4.
You can check all the available APIs # https://api.sap.com/package/SAPS4HANACloud/all
You can check out the demo below if you want to view an application that provides similar functionalities.
https://demo.inoerp.com:8090
Select Hana SandBox. This is a single app that provides similar functionalities for Oracle, SAP, Dynamics etc.
If you need an API that is not yet published. You can also create your own APIs using ABAP
Regarding technology - You can use anything Java(Springboot/ADF), C# .net, node.js. You will be fine as long as you stay away from the SAP technology stack (i.e., ABAP and UI5 :-))

Internal search engine for webmatrix 3

I'm trying to implement an internal search engine for my webmatrix website, it will serach through my database(SQL CE) for similarity and return results. Someone suggested me to use lucene.net because of how powerful it is. I cannot find documentation on implementing lucene.net with webmatrix, only implementation on asp.net with VS 2015. Can anyone guide me on implementing it on webmatrix? Or does anyone have any good suggestion for internal search engine? Or it would be easier to write my own search algorithm? Thanks!
You might like to use our product SearchUnit Community, there's a free version for small websites. I believe you'll find it easier to use than Lucene, and although we don't have documentation specific to WebMatrix, the standard Javascript based usage should apply just the same. The product uses ASP.NET on the backend.
For example if you look at the quick start, you'll see that you can crawl any web-site using the index manager tool. Then you drop some Javascript onto your page, and hook up WCF for the backend search calls.
If it helps, the search engine uses Javascript/HTML on the front end to build the UI, and then communicates via AJAX/WCF to the backend service that does the searching.
You can run WCF with webmatrix, see https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/james_osbornes_blog/2010/07/30/webmatrix-iisexpress-beta-hosting-wcf-services/
If you're stuck you're welcome to post support questions on the SearchUnit Community forum

How to do a JSON webservice

I need to create a webservice that will be used in iOS, Windows Phone and Android apps.
I've found many tutorials on the Internet but no one uses real JSON files.
I have an example of what I mean:
https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?include_entities=true&include_rts=true&screen_name=tiste&count=2
Is it better to use a web service like Twitter or can we use only headers in PHP?
If it's the first, how can I do it?
Finally, is JSON the most suitable option for web service communication?
Most contemporary web apps are built around an api - they are called api-centric. Twitter is one of them. You are not the only one who needs to create a web frontend and apps for mobile platforms. Having an api for all those platforms is going to save you a lot of time.
This field is developing rapidly now. There are many frameworks(both client and server side) to choose from. Since you are not telling us which technology/programming language you are going to use, i can only suggest you to google an api-centric or a rest framework. If you extend your question, i'll give a more specific answer.
Meanwhile you can read the following general articles...

Working with MySQL and Xcode

I've been programing for some time now, and the thing I get asked the most is, how about MySQL database.
What are some good sites for learning about data base programing with xcode, so I can make a app work together with a web site?
To integrate an iPhone/iPad application with mysql you need to develop webservices and then call them in your app. I would suggest the use of JSON, SOAP, XML or PHP, some examples:
http://www.raywenderlich.com/2941/how-to-write-a-simple-phpmysql-web-service-for-an-ios-app
http://www.icodeblog.com/2008/11/03/iphone-programming-tutorial-intro-to-soap-web-services/
http://www.devx.com/wireless/Article/43209
There are a lot of combinations possible.... you can use php or .net or other frameworks, so it's hard to give you a complete list of tutorials.
If you want to develop a regular iOS application, i would suggest this link:

Hope it helps.

Idea Wanted: Raster Online Map (Possibly with ESRI API and some geoprocess model)

(I hope this is a valid question)
As I stated in my title, I'm looking for a fairly easy to moderately easy idea for some sort of online raster analysis map. I'm familiar with ESRI and their really awesome API, as I'm hoping to tackle something on that front. I'm also open to using the mapstraction lib.
Does anyone have any ideas for me?
Thanks!!
I'm not sure you mean image rasters or data rasters. This uses open source packages: MapServer and an AJAX client MsCross. It generates data rasters on the server and displays them in the browser. The rasters are contour plots for a plume of contamination in groundwater.
If you are already familiar with ESRI, then you should look at the ESRI Flex API ESRI Javascript API. You can use both of them to fire up Server side Geoprocessing services.
There are so many ways to skin the cat...
You may want to check the Publishing a GeoProcessing Service section of ESRI help
The basic idea is this... you use ArcMap/ArcCatalog to author a Geoprocessing Model (I am assuming you are familiar with this), which you later expose in an ArcGIS Server as a Geoprocessing Service. Publishing a model as a service is pretty easy provided you already have an ArcGIS Server configured - see the links I provided you above.
Then you can either use the free ArcGIS Explorer application to consume that GeoProcessing Service or write a webapp using Flex, or Javascript or DotNet or even python to consume that webservice.
And yeah, don't consume the webservice synchronously - stick with async.
You do unfortunately not write, what exactly you need. Do you want to display maps on a web page or in a application?
In the latter case i would recommend using http://www.openstreetmap.org/ it seems to be a little tricky in the beginning, buts data base gets better and better. A number of renderes exist, which you can integrate into your application.
