We are installing Qlik sense Enterprise
Set up a Service Account for the install.
Now the vendor says EVERY USER needs to log into the app with that same service account?
Why can't each user use their own AD account to log into the server via RDP and use the app?
Why is the vendor saying the USERS need access to the administrative Service Account?
I'm the SA here, I've never used the product. But the vendor is asking for things that violate common industry security best practices. Here is some of what I'm being told is needed to make this run;
Hi Jonathan,
Sounds a bit strange.
To run a Qlik Sense server you need 1 service account that needs Local Admin rights on the server that has Qlik Server installed.
None of your end-users need to have access to it. Once the security rules are setup correctly, nobody even need to use the service account anymore as other users or group will get specific Admin rights (Security, Deployment, Content or Admin or a combination) if they need it for their role.
The regular users will need to have access to the HUB, usually just by being part of an Active Directory or other directory system.
Are we talking about a "regular" Qlik Sense install or some sort of integration in another product?
Any specific Qlik partner making this suggestion?
Thanks, Onno, that sounds a lot more like what I would expect. I'll converse with our vendor and see what we can figure out.
And, to answer your other questions, I think this is a stand alone 3 node install for now, that is designed to integrate with CENX CORTX down the road, but the stand alone QLIK install isn't even successful at this point.
