Many organisations deal with the constant battle of data managing their data from many disparate sources and serving it to their users that is simple, and provides a complete picture. QlikView frees you from traditional disk-based BI requirement of long, costly data integration projects. QlikView can access all your data sources: operational applications such as Oracle, SAP®, Salesforce.com; databases such as SQL Server, MySQL, and Oracle underlying custom applications; data in traditional disk-based BI warehouses and cubes; data behind web services; and local data such as spreadsheets.
Consolidate Data from many sources
QlikView lets you bring together data from a wide variety of sources. And, because QlikView operates entirely in memory, every source performs lightning fast, regardless of the performance of the under system. QlikView provides:
- Access to Excel files, flat files and XML documents
- ODBC and OLEDB access to every relational database
- Standard interfaces to your ERP system or data warehouse
- The ability to leverage security definitions to drive application and data entitlements for users
- The ability to incrementally load data, so refreshes are extremely fast
As new data sources become available, QlikView provides the tools to incorporate them simply and easily—no new cube designs or rebuilding from scratch necessary.
Beyond the Traditional
In traditional disk-based BI tools data must be extracted, transformed, and stored in proprietary data structures such as cubes prior to being accessible to end users. This business intelligence (BI) data integration process is time consuming, difficult, and provides no value to the end user – the only value is to the BI vendor’s consultants, who spend months doing the business intelligence (BI) data integration. QlikView’s in-memory architecture means that data simply needs to be moved into memory. Because memory is so fast QlikView can aggregate and calculate in real-time – the user simply clicks.
SAP & Salesforce
Too many businesses find themselves hostage to their business applications stack that prevents them from getting to their data in a simple and meaningful way. With purpose-built connectors for some of the most involved applications, such as SAP® and Salesforce.com, QlikView eases access and analysis of your business data. Our customers are able to leverage the business and warehousing assets already in place to provide data to rapid QlikView application development. We’re providing BI at levels and at a pace never before realized by most SAP customers.
