[Article] Qlik Associative Engine: Think Like a Human, Calculate Like a Machine

Good day Qlik Community!

I have a new article available at Data Voyagers. This time I decided to talk about the good and old, fan favorite, Qlik Engine. However, with a different perspective, a neuroscience perspective.

Humans don’t think like queries. We don’t learn by joining information in pre determined ways. We think and learn by making association. Produce a data engine that helps computers process information like our brain was a revolution in Analytics and it is still today the core and greatest advantage of Qlik.

This is my article of this week. I hope you like it.

"Think Like a Human, Calculate Like a Machine" - did you come up with this @igoralcantara ? If you did - trademark it 😄

This is so far the best way someone described Qlik engine in one phrase and it is right in bullseye! I reckon Qlik should have used this as their catch phrase...

cheers
