    I feel pleased to introduce our new Educator Ambassador for 2023, Sumitra Pundlik from MIT ADT University, Pune, India.  Sumitra is an Educator since the last 14 years and is currently working as a Senior Assistant Professor at MIT ADT University. She is the Specialization Head Coordinator for Data Analytics and overlooks the curriculum design.

    Sumitra teaches various subjects related to Data Analytics such as DBMS, Advanced DBMS, Machine Learning, Big Data Analytics. She has also taught R and Python Programming including different BI and visualization technologies including Qlik Sense. 

    Sumitra has been a member of the Qlik Academic Program since the last two years and has also successfully earned the Qlik Sense Business Analyst Qualification.  After earning this qualification, she supported the learning journey of more than 50 students and encouraged them to pursue Qlik Sense Business Analyst Qualifications.

    According to her, “The Qlik Academic Program provides a great opportunity for students to access many online resources and different qualifications and certifications including Data Literacy, Qlik Sense Business Analyst and Qlik Sense Data Architect. The interactive material of the academic program helps students to excel in the field of data analytics”.

    A landmark step has been the inclusion of Qlik in the data analytics specialization within the curriculum of the Information Technology Department, MIT School of Computing at MIT ADT University. This specialization is designed to enable students to become a qualified data analyst. According to Sumitra, there's a tremendous demand for such specializations among graduates and they are eager to acquire specialized courses for future opportunities. 

    “We are leveraging resources from the Qlik Academic Program for second year engineering students as a part of their data visualization course and third year engineering as a part of their data analytics course. Along with this, we are encouraging students from other disciplines to become a part of the Qlik academic program” according to Sumitra.   

    Further she adds, “I have been spreading awareness about the Qlik Academic Program and its benefits to other engineering colleges by conducting expert sessions via social media platforms”

    Sumitra says, “Moving ahead, we are keen for internship and job opportunities for our students who have a good understanding of Qlik Sense and have earned the academic program qualifications.”

    In Sumitra’s words, “Data literacy is my interest and I want to educate every data science enthusiast about the importance of data literacy.”

    She feels it’s her mission to create more awareness about data analytics and encourage use of Qlik Sense. Data is the new fuel, and it is driving the current industry, she further adds.

    Looking ahead, she endeavors to become part of the 2024 Qlik Academic Ambassador Program!

    When Sumitra is not teaching, she likes spending time with her son, Viraj. She is focusing on upskilling herself in recent trends, also taking care of her health and following a workout routine. 

    We are looking forward to working closely with Sumitra during her tenure as an ambassador and creating more links with Universities in Pune and rest of India.

    Bring your own encryption keys to Qlik Cloud with Customer Managed Keys

    As industries transition into cloud infrastructures, each face their own unique regional or regulatory requirements around data protection and privacy... Show More

    As industries transition into cloud infrastructures, each face their own unique regional or regulatory requirements around data protection and privacy such as GDPR in Europe or HIPAA for US Healthcare. It’s critical that enterprises can trust their data being safe when deployed into the cloud. A vital component of that security infrastructure is through enhanced data encryption and leveraging cryptographic keys.

    For customers with higher security requirements, we have released Customer Managed Keys, an additional security offering allowing customers to bring their own encryption service to Qlik Cloud. This empowers the customer to retain full control over their data’s encryption key. If the customer disables access to the encryption key, Qlik Cloud can no longer access the data in that tenant. It’s your data, and your encryption keys.

    What is Customer Managed Keys?

    Customer Managed Keys is a new security offering in Qlik Cloud which allows customers to bring their own encryption keys (BYOK) to protect the data stored at rest in their Qlik Cloud tenant. 

    Learn more

    Additional control around data access

    Customers may have sensitive data that they do not want Qlik to manage on their own. Customer Managed Keys ensures only the customer has access to the data – not Qlik. If data is encrypted using customer-managed keys and the customer disables access to the encryption key, it is technically impossible for Qlik to decrypt the data without the customer’s consent. The customer keeps full control over the data’s lifecycle.

    Qlik’s first implementation of Customer Managed Keys will use AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS). AWS KMS is a managed service that makes it easy to create and control the cryptographic keys that are used to protect your data. AWS KMS uses hardware security modules (HSM) to protect and validate your AWS KMS keys under FIPS 140-2.

     

    Technical Diagram of integration with AWS KMS

    QlikProductUpdates_0-1667315701216.png

     

    Summary

    We strive to support our customers navigation through complex regulatory landscapes and enable them to tailor a data security strategy that meets their needs. Customer Managed Keys brings that extra level of trust and security for customers with sensitive data moving in to Qlik Cloud.

    Renaming Fields with a Mapping Table

    Is there a way to rename several field names in table all at once? This is a question I recently asked myself while building a data model. I was build... Show More

    Is there a way to rename several field names in table all at once? This is a question I recently asked myself while building a data model. I was building an app to explore various datasets and one of the source files included a CSV file that had over 300 fields. Most of the fields were codes used to describe a metric. I also had a key or definition table that provided a description for all the codes. Below is a small fictional example of the type of data included in the files.

    Data Dictionary file example:

    dictionary table.png

     

     

     

     

     

    Data file example:

    data file table.png

     

    The data file was the file that had over 300 codes for the field names. Of course, I can rename fields in the script using “as” in my load script like this:

    load as.png

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    This is what I would normally do to rename fields in my data model, but when I have over 300 fields in a single table, this can be cumbersome. I use mapping tables all the time to normalize/update/scramble data in a field, but I did not know mapping tables could be used to also rename fields in a table. Here is the syntax to do this (Qlik Help).

    Rename Field (using mapname | oldname to newname{ , oldname to newname })

    Rename Fields (using mapname | oldname to newname{ , oldname to newname })

    Depending on how many fields you are renaming, you use Rename Field or Rename Fields. One option is to use a map that was previously loaded using the Mapping Load syntax. The other option is to list the old name and new name as parameters in the script function. Since I have a file with all the codes and descriptions, I will use a mapping table in this function. In the script below, I load the data dictionary mapping table named DataDictionaryMap and then I load the Data table.  To keep things simple in this example, the Data table only has 4 fields with code field names, but imagine there are over 300 fields with code field names. The last step is to rename the fields using the Rename Fields function using the DataDictionaryMap I created.

    script.png

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    A preview of the Data table, as shown below, displays the new field names that use the code description. Instead of renaming each field individually, I used the Rename Fields script function along with a mapping table, to rename all the field names that were included in the map. Fields that are not in the map, remain the same with no change. Note that whenever you rename fields, you want to make sure there are no fields with the same name.

    data preview.png

     

    It is funny how I have used mapping tables and the rename table function all these years without coming across the rename fields function using a mapping table. Nonetheless, I love it when I learn something new so hopefully, you find this helpful.

    Thanks,

    Jennell

    Connector Factory March Release Update:

    Enhanced connectors: Google BigQuery and MongoDB
    Qlik has expanded the capabilities of our Google BigQuery and MongoDB connectors by providing the option for personal connections when accessing these repositories. Similar to our other enterprise connectors within Qlik Cloud Analytic (ex. Snowflake, Salesforce, Oracle, etc.), customers can now define user-specific credentials instead of the generic company identifications when connecting to Google BigQuery and MongoDB. Users can also save these credentials so they can be reused across multiple connection definitions to the same source.

    New connector: SFTP
    Qlik Cloud Analytics now includes a SFTP connector that will enable you to download files from, or upload to, secure FTP locations. SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is a secure file transfer protocol that runs over the SSH protocol and can help enterprises meet HIPAA, GDPR and other regulatory rulings for file transfer compliance. Similar to other Qlik Cloud Analytics file-related connectors (SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.), users can also use this SFTP connector to browse and drill into any folder the user has access to on the SFTP server.

    Enhanced connectors: Azure SQL database and Azure Synapse Analytics
    The Azure SQL database and Azure Synapse Analytics connectors now support two new authentication methods to enable a more secure authorization technique when accessing these repositories:
         • The Azure OAuth method allows for single sign-on (SSO) when using the OAuth token-based authentication process
         • The Azure Active Directory can be used to protect user identity and simplify the sign-in experience

    In my previous blog post, I talked about how custom visualization extensions enable you to go beyond the default visualization capabilities of Qlik Sense and we took a look at how to create a custom Stream Chart using Qlik’s Nebula.js and Picasso.js.

    Sometimes however, you might find yourself wanting to build more complex charts that can be difficult to do using only what the Picasso.js library has to offer.

    In this blog post, we will do just that as we build a cool Racing Bar Chart visualization using D3.js that we will then package and upload to our Qlik Cloud tenant.

    barchart-race-full.gif

    First, let’s talk about what a Bar Chart Race visualization is and where you can use it to enhance your data storytelling:

    A bar chart race is a type of data visualization that displays changes in data over time using dynamic animated bars. It’s often used to show the ranking or position of different groups or categories over a period of time.

    In a bar chart race, the bars representing each group/category move horizontally or vertically to show the changes in their values over time. The length of the bars represents the magnitude of the data being visualized.

    This type of chart is particularly effective in visualizing data that is dynamic and changes frequently. It can be used to compare different categories or groups in terms of their performance, popularity, or other factors over time. Bar chart races are also visually engaging, making them a popular tool for sharing data on social media and other platforms.

    Some examples of usage include:

    1. Comparing sales data for different products or services
    2. Showing the distribution of income levels across a population
    3. Visualizing the frequency of different types of crimes in a city or region
    4. Monitoring the spread of a virus across countries
    5. Comparing the popularity of different social media platforms over time

    Project setup

    If you are new to creating visualization extensions in Qlik Sense, you might want to go through my previous blog post or check out these resources as I’m not going to cover all the details here.

    • Run the following command to bootstrap the codebase (notice that we used the “—picasso none” to prevent the generation of a picasso.js template)'
      npx @nebula.js/cli create racing-bar-chart --picasso none
    • Next, move into the newly created project directory and run the following commands (1st one to install D3.js, and 2nd one to run our project)
      npm i d3@6.0.0 --save
      
      npm run start
      This will open the Nebula.js dev UI, follow the instructions to connect to your Qlik Cloud tenant:

    • Enter the websocket URL which includes the “web integration id” and is formatted like this:
      wss://YOUR_TENANT.us.qlikcloud.com/&qlik-web-integration-id=YOUR_WEBINTEGRATION_ID
      P.S: to get your web integration id, go to your Qlik Management Console, click on “Web” on the left sidebar, then click on “Create new"

    1.png

     

    • Next, select the Qlik Sense App from the list (The QVF with data is attached to this post)

    2.png

    • Back to the code base, we need to edit the configuration files to define the data structure as follow:
      • object-properties.js:
        const properties = {
          showTitles: true,
          title: "",
          subtitle: "",
          footnote: "",
          qHyperCubeDef: {
            qDimensions: [],
            qMeasures: [],
            qInitialDataFetch: [
              {
                qWidth: 3,
                qHeight: 3300,
              },
            ],
          },
        
        };
        
        export default properties;​
      • data.js:
        export default {
          targets: [
            {
              path: "/qHyperCubeDef",
              dimensions: {
                min: 1,
              },
              measures: {
                min: 1,
              },
            },
          ],
        };

    Since we’re going to view Brand Value over time for Companies, we need 1 measure (sum(value)) and 2 dimensions (Date and Name).

    • You can now select these 2 dimensions and 1 measure in the Nebula.js dev UI on your browser:

    3.png

     

    Developing the visualization in Nebula.js and D3.js:

    For the purposes of keeping this post short, we’re not going to dive deep into the details of the D3.js code. You can visit this comprehensive post by the co-creator of Observable and main developer of this library, that explains in detail the implementation of this chart.

    • index.js:
      This is the main entry of our extension and contains our Nebula.js code.
      Note that we’re using a few hooks from the imported @nebula.js/stardust package which should be familiar if you’re used to developing React.js applications.
      - useElement provides the HTML element where we attach our visualization.
      - useLayout is used to get the layout of our generic object (hypercube).
      - useEffect is used to run the callback function we pass it when certain values change.
      - useState helps keep track of state within the application. In this case we use it to replay the animation.

      4.PNG

     

    • vis.js:
      This is where all the magic happens and where the D3.js specific code lives. For brevity, I will highlight the important parts of this file:

      1: constants needed in calculating d3 scales and positionning.

      2: D3 scales with x being a linear scale and y being a band scale

      3: Data derived from the source data (gets passed on index.js)

      4: Helper functions including rank() function to compute brand ranks, and keyframes() to compute interpolate values within each year for a smooth animation.

      5: D3 formatting functions

      6: D3 drawing functions for the components that make up the visualization:

      • Bars
      • x-axis
      • labels (on each bar)
      • ticker (Date)

      7: D3 animation that iterates over each keyframe and updates the components above.

    5.PNG

    Finally, to build the extension, run:

     

    npm run build

     

    And in order to package the extension for Qlik Sense, run: (make sure to zip the folder in /dist before uploading it to your tenant)

     

    npm run sense

    Qlik Data Integration Client Managed Releases in February 2023

    February is traditionally the month to show you care about somebody you love, and this month we continue to give some love to our Qlik Data Integration Client-Managed portfolio with a round of several releases, mainly through our regular scheduled Service Releases. As a reminder for our client-managed portfolio, we currently have an annual release cadence of two main GA releases, and generally two Service Releases, and in between patches can be released on an as-needed basis.

    Here is a round-up of some of the highlights of what's new.

    Qlik Replicate November 2022 Service Release 1

    In this release of Qlik Replicate, we have made some improvements and enhancements around source and target endpoints.

    Support 4-byte Replication into Cloud targets from Oracle source

    We have removed a previous limitation by adding support for replicating data with 4-byte emoji characters, from an Oracle source into various cloud targets:

      • Snowflake
      • Databricks
      • Azure Synapse
      • Google Big Query

     

    Databricks as a Target

    Continuing with our strong working partnership with Databricks we have added support for Databricks (Cloud Storage) and Databricks Lakehouse (Delta) 11.3 LTS

     

    Qlik Compose May 2022 Service Release 2

     

    Databricks Unity Catalog integration

    Until now Qlik Compose did not integrate with Databricks’ Unity Catalog. With this release, you can define and configure a Unity Catalog as the target for Qlik Compose tasks.   Qlik Compose users can utilize a three-part naming convention to register generated Delta tables and Live views. Qlik users then get the benefits of the Unity Catalog, such as role-based access control, lineage, and more, as they consume the registered data.

    Engineers using Qlik Replicate to write non-Delta formats would require the hive_metastore catalog as a target. Qlik Compose reads metadata and data from the hive_metastore catalog and then creates and processes data to delta tables in the target Unity Catalog. Qlik Compose users can streamline this multi-step process once Unity Catalog supports partitioned external tables in non-Delta formats.

    Performance and cost improvement

    Before, Qlik Compose did not skip the subsequent SQL execution steps that used a table with no rows loaded into it as part of data movement or transformation. Now, with this release, Qlik Compose culls groups of hundreds of SQL execution steps when not required, based on run time metadata. This helps to reduce execution time and further improves the suitability for low-latency use cases. This capability is available in both Snowflake and Microsoft Synapse.

     

    Enhanced security and governance

    In the past, Qlik Compose Synapse projects created all dimension and fact tables within a single schema as part of the data mart configuration, with dependent views created in different schemas. With this release, you can configure physical data mart tables in different schemas with Qlik Compose – you can have the finance data mart in the finance schema, the revenue data mart in the revenue schema, and so on.

    This fine-grained control will allow the data warehouse administrators to separate the different artifacts, leading to higher security. Also, administrators can provide user permissions at the schema level rather than an at an individual table or view level, simplifying administration.

    This capability was previously available for Snowflake and Microsoft SQL Server and is now available for Microsoft Synapse.

     

    Command Line interface improvements

    Based on customer feedback, we have improved how Qlik Compose users can update custom-SQL within pre-load, intermediate and post-load steps for data warehouse and data mart automation. With this release, you can now revise these steps using the command line interface rather than having to rely on the user interface, which customers have informed us was not as time efficient as it could be. Custom-SQL can be written in files to update multiple development and CI/CD environments helping to reduce time to production.

    Qlik Catalog February 2023 Client-managed

     

    Schedule load jobs via properties - This release for Qlik Catalog builds upon the data load scheduling capability that was introduced in the November 2022 release.  Users can now define these schedules via properties in the source connector object.

     

    Modify publish job datasets - Previously, once a dataset was defined during the publishing job creation process, it could not be changed.  The user now has the ability to subsequently modify the dataset. 

     

    Expanded support for PowerBI - Qlik Catalog already supports the publishing of data to Microsoft PowerBI Pro and Premium.  In this release, we have added support for Microsoft GCC (Government Community Cloud).

    Qlik Academic Program

    Welcome to our new Educator Ambassador, Dorina Kabakchieve!

    Dorina is Associated Professor at the Department of Information Technologies and Communication, at the University of National and World Economy (UNWE)... Show More

    Dorina is Associated Professor at the Department of Information Technologies and Communication, at the University of National and World Economy (UNWE). Dorina lives in Sofia, Bulgaria, with her husband while her two children study at university in the Netherlands. She has been using Qlik in her teaching for 10 years, in the Business Intelligence and Data Mining fields. She also works on many other projects (European and national) in the ICT field, both managing and doing research.

    Dorina was inspired to use Qlik after attending a workshop, “The training was organized by a Bulgarian company – Balkan Services, implementing QlikView software in Bulgarian companies. During the workshop, I spoke with the company representatives about the opportunities for using QlikView at the University and they supported me. That is how our long-term collaboration started and continues.”

    “I am using the software and the provided resources in my classes in the Business Intelligence courses for BSc and MSc students. I have defined assignments aimed at teaching the software functionalities, as well as use cases - for creating BI applications based on business data. The students use the software also to develop their bachelor and master theses.”

    Using Qlik in the classroom has helped some of Dorina’s students secure jobs after graduation, she says “there are students who have participated in my courses and later on informed me, or I met them at events, that they have taken the position of BI consultants in companies. Some of the students have joined the BI teams of famous international companies, and others work for smaller companies. As the years pass by, some of those people have further developed their careers and took managerial positions related to BI.”

    Dorina wanted to become an Educator Ambassador to expand her network and establish new relations with other university colleagues and business professionals.” I would be grateful to exchange ideas and experience, in order to implement new approaches, teaching methods and interesting activities in my classes. The involvement of business professionals in the teaching process and the more active collaboration with the business are also goals that are in my focus.”

    When she isn’t teaching Dorina loves to hike in the beautiful Bulgarian mountains, every week she walks in Vitosha mountain which is 15 min away from Sofia. She also likes reading, going to the theatre, practicing yoga and cooking. When she has time off she loves to travel within Bulgaria because of its beautiful nature, as well as visiting some of her favorite countries in Europe - Spain, Italy and Greece. In the past few years she has also made trips to parts of Asia and the USA.
