If you create a service definition file, you can upload that file to Server Manager and publish. When a dataset name is required, it is the name of the object in the workspace, not the way it appears in a map document's table of contents.

Connect to your hosting server and set the Maximum Number of Records Returned by Server property to the desired value for each service. A dataset is the feature class or table that is in a workspace. You can update this limit on existing hosted feature layers from the service properties in ArcGIS Server Manager. For example, shapefile, personal geodatabase, file geodatabase, CAD, SDE, and so on. See Publish a map service and Configure a map service for information about publishing a map service with feature access enabled (a feature service) to a stand-alone ArcGIS GIS Server site. A workspace type is an ArcGIS supported data model format. See Web feature layer in the ArcGIS Pro help for instructions to publish a feature layer that references registered data to a federated server. While 10.8 is the last major release of ArcMap, we will continue to update and patch the 10.8.x releases to address security and third-party issues as established in the ArcGIS Desktop Product Life Cycle. Register your data sources with one of your portal's federated ArcGIS GIS Server sites or with a stand-alone ArcGIS GIS Server site, and publish a feature layer that references the registered data. Will Esri issue any updates or patches to the ArcMap 10.8.x releases Yes. In an ArcGIS Pro project, create a map that contains the data you want to publish.

Upload the service definition file to ArcGIS Server Manager to publish the feature service there.

You can also create a service definition file rather than publish a feature service. You can then publish a feature service to either a stand-alone or federated ArcGIS GIS Server site. To publish feature services that reference your data sources, create maps in ArcGIS Pro that contain the feature data you need in the service.
