If you work regularly on Qlik Sense after a period of time you may have noticed a slowdown. After a while a published application can generate errors caused by:
- The continuous growth of data volume.
- RAM that saturates by the size of applications and the calculations made.
To give you a view of the state of your applications, Qlik has created an app: App (Metadata) Analyzer which is part of the Monitoring Apps group that allows governance of the entire Qlik Sense environment.
Monitoring Apps are a set of nine Qlik Sense applications allowing to have a governance of its Qlik environment through the Log files that are generated. These apps retain historical data for trend analysis. By default, two Monitoring Apps are installed: License Monitor and Operations Monitor, other apps can be imported.
The App (Metadata) Analyzer provides dashboards to analyze the metadata of all your Qlik apps in your Qlik Sense Enterprise deployment. In other words, analyze the data that your applications are composed of: the tables and fields in each table.
Through the Analyzer App you will be able to know.
- The load time and size of all your applications.
- The location and owner of the applications.
- The RAM consumption of all your applications.
- The number of tables and fields present in each application as well as their RAM consumption.
- A color code to highlight items that require your attention based on your criteria.
This will ultimately allow you to
- Compare RAM consumption to the limit of your server.
- Highlight the most resource-demanding applications/tables.
- Optimize your apps
- Detect anomalies.
And therefore, be proactive in the maintenance of your applications.
The App (Metadata) Analyzer is available on Qlik Sense Enterprise On Premise and also available on the cloud: Qlik Sense Enterprise Saas and Qlik Sense Business SaaS.
