Anybody knows if it is possible to publish a .qvw document for public on the internet? If so, what would be the license that I've to acquire?

Thanks in advance.

Look in documentation

"Small Business Edition (SBE) only supports Windows-based authorization (Active Directory

and Windows local users) and utilizes the web server to do the authentication against

Windows. So if users are managed in Windows, SBE could be deployed in a DMZ. The

SBE license, however, does not allow for external users. Customers that require access by

external users should consider QlikView Extranet Server. QlikView Extranet Server allows

access by external users and can be used with any user management system."

Hi Ricardo

Thanks for the answer.

The problem is: the QlikView Extranet Server permit unlimited access to a unlimited number of users?

Thanks in advance.

Look into manual:

"QES is based on QlikView EE Server, but only supports up to three QlikView documents."

I only have one document. My problem is the number of users...

You can use DMS authorization or section access because QES is different to QIAS.

Look in the manual of Qlikview Server in the section "Editions of QlikView Server"

Dear Sir,

Extranet Server could be used with Small Business Edition (SBE) or is it necessary to have Enterprise Edition (EE)?

I am still confused with this statement "QES is based on QlikView EE Server".

I could not find the proper answer over the community.

I would be really thankful to you if you could answer it and help me.

Thanks.

Dear Ashfaq,

Thanks for your quick reply, but my question is still un-answered.

What i wanted to know was:

Could i use Qlikview Extranet Server (QES) with Small Business Edition (SBE) or do i need to have Enterprise Edition (EE) to be able to use Qlikview Extranet Server (QES)?

Thanks.

I'm not 100% sure but I would think Extranet server is its own entity - doesn't need EE or SBE etc. You just need the Extranet server and as many Extranet Server Concurrent licences as you require.

So it could work with Small Business Edition (SBE) and we dont need to have Enterprise Edition (EE)?

Thanks.

It's not a case of "working with". To develop a full-blown QV application you don't need SBE, EE or anything - just a desktop client (even the personal edition). Server licences are only required when you want to distribute access to the applications. In this regard, SBE, EE and Extranet Server are all the same family. You choose a server licence based upon how you intend to distribute applications.

Again however - check with your QV account manager. I may be wrong...I have never used Extranet Server.

No problem. Let us know here if you get anything different from the Qlik guys. In the meantime please mark a correct answer to close the thread.

HI,

Those are two different type of QlikView servers. Each having their own restrictions of use. The Link that ASHFAQ gave does explain the different in servers. So, if you are going to serve inside users and outside users you will need Enterprise server.

Hi,

You need to go with EE with session cals.

Its good idea to contact your Account Manager.

He will allocate some consultant with you who can determine what exactly you need.

hope it helped.
