Low-code, open source tool for both client-managed and cloud Qlik Sense versions.
Built on top of the excellent Node-RED platform, Ctrl-Q NR let you quickly build data integrations, on-prem-to-cloud workflows, set up monitoring of critical app reloads and more.
Node-RED itself has more than 4600 modules covering all kinds of source systems, IoT modules, databases etc. All of which can now be integrated with both client-managed and cloud Qlik Sense.
Given Node-REDs rich ecosystem of add-on modules your imagination is the limiting factor of what can be done... One example is hybrid Sense environments where on-premise/client-managed Qlik Sense is used to process data from local systems/sources. Ctrl-Q NR can then act as the hub that orchestrate cloud app reloads starting when on-prem systems have reloaded. A reload fails? That can be detected and alerted upon. Another example is integration of IoT data with Qlik Sense. Use Node-RED to collect the data and feed it to Sense, then Ctrl-Q is used to visually manage the various Qlik Sense resources that are involved (app reloads etc).
Impact
Easy prototyping and deployment of integrations that would otherwise be difficult and/or time consuming to create.
Audience
Qlik Sense admins and developers for both client-managed and cloud Qlik Sense.
Data and advanced analytics
Being able to quickly test and prototype ideas is an important capability in a fast-moving IT landscape. Thanks to the low-code nature of Node-RED (on top of which Ctrl-Q NR runs) integrations between Sense and other systems and tools can often be done in minutes. Node-RED runs on most platforms, including Windows, Linux, macOS and Docker.
hi there, this is a question about ctrl-q rather than this new version. How do you initially run it in cmd? i downloaded the zip file, extracted it...but do not see ctrl-q.exe within the folder? do you have a screenshot of how you initially get to using the app or some documentation on this part? on your site it goes straight into the functionality rather than the very first steps. Many thanks
