Hello,
I'd like to understand the difference between 'QIX' and the 'Qlik Associate Engine'.
#1 Are these two actually the same, or are they different engines?
(My assumption is as follows:
I'd like to know if this is accurate.)
#2 I would like to know how the data processing structure works.
(If my assumption is correct, it would look something like this:
*I've done some research, but this information may deviate from the actual process. So my explanation may sound unusual...)
Thank you.
As far as I know, I don't see these two concepts as different things. Associative Modeling is part of Qlik Engine.

Maybe @hic could give us light on this issue!
Mario is right. They are the same thing. It is the engine that handles Logical inference and Calculations.
Over the years, Qlik has called the engine different things. For a while, the term "QIX engine" was used, and now Qlik calls it "the Qlik Associative engine". I prefer to call it just "the Qlik engine" since it is shorter, and more to the point: It lacks marketing buzz words.

@Mario_De_Felipe and @hic ,
thank you for the detailed explanations and even providing links to aid in understanding.
"QIX engine" and "Qlik Associative engine" were the same thing! (include "the Qlik engine", what you mentioned.) I've got it now.
What you mentioned was a big help.
Thank you!
Have a great day 🙂
