Multi-Tenancy in QlikSense

[paul_scotchford]

Hi Mike

I'm probably not using best practice connecting from this post, just wondering how or if

anyone has implemented Multi Tenancy in QlikSense ?

By this I mean data from many external companies loading data to our Data Warehouse (Multi Tenanted)

and then that data is loaded to QlikSense model that is within a pre-developed app that any of these

companies can access (extranet) but of course only see their data for their visualisations.

Is this best achieved via Section Access in QlikSense ? Any whitepapers out there ?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Just downloaded it and had a play on desktop.  Has a lot of potential if you could pass the users session through it.

Good work.

Hi Jeff

Many thanks for your input on this, you have given me something to work with, I am leaning towards the

second option.

Once on site next week I can get a better understanding of the exact requirements.

I will share my experiences here in one form or another.

Cheers

Paul

Hi Paul,

Did you choose the Qlik multi-app solution?  Would you share your experiences?

I'm also exploring how to handle multi-tenancy, and would love to see what others thought.  Thanks!

At this point we will be providing a multi app solution, everything is still in development, but in summary...

QlikSense 2.0 server

QVD generators to load all data for all tenancies into single QVD's e.g. all SALES into 1 QVD

QVD generators to regionalise into QVD's per tenancy e.g. SALES for company 'A','B' etc.

Apps will be based on a subject matter template e.g. Sales Analysis App that is tailored for Client 'A' e.g. loader to hit the clients own QVD set.

App is integrated to a data governance solution I have created so that we have a common repository for

calculation expressions commonly used over all apps (as well as client specific app calcs) , this resides on

a database vendor product.

Portal setup so that Clients can log in to their apps (a little like QlikCloud perhaps)

This is just a précis of what is being created, when this has been implemented I will post a paper on the

architecture used, probably later in the year.

If you (anyone) would like the specification for data governance part just let me know and I will convert it to a generic version that is usable anywhere (QlikView or QlikSense).

cheers

Hi Paul,

I am looking to do something very similar with regards to Qlik Sense and Multi-Tenancy.  Can you let me know if you were able to get a solution developed?

Thanks

Andy
