Connector Factory – October and November 2023 Releases

Over the past two months, Connector Factory has released more capabilities and connectors for data integration, data analytics and application automation.

Qlik Cloud Data Integration

Additional SaaS application connectors

We’re continuing to expand the connectivity of Qlik Cloud Data Integration with a new group of connectors that just got released. These connectors will enable you to gather business data from additional applications that focus on the supply chain, ERP, CRM, and finance:

 

  • Acumatica ERP
  • GitHub
  • QuickBooks
  • SAP Ariba Analytical
  • SAP Ariba Event Management
  • SAP Ariba Operational Procurement
  • SAP Ariba Operational Sourcing
  • SAP Ariba Supplier Data
  • SAP Ariba Supplier Risk Engagements
  • SAP Cloud for Customer
  • SAP Fieldglass
  • SAP SuccessFactors Payroll
  • Stripe
  • Zoho Books
  • Zoho CRM
  • Zoho Expense
  • Zoho Inventory

 

We also updated the existing Oracle OPERA connector to support change data capture.

 

Similar to our previous connector releases, these connectors are Generally Available (GA), covered by our standard support policies and are tagged as Preview. If you haven’t already done so, you will need to contact your local support representative to activate the feature flag that enables all recently released connectors in your tenant. The preview tag and feature flag are there because these connectors do not cover all use cases and we want to make sure you have the best experience possible.

 

Private connections - A private connection (sometimes called a PrivateLink) can be used to ensure your data traffic remains secure and compliant. Qlik Cloud Data Integration already supports private connections if Snowflake, Microsoft SQL Server or AWS S3 is the target of a data pipeline. We now additionally support private connections when moving data to Databricks, Microsoft Azure Synapse, Google BigQuery or AWS Redshift.

 

Qlik Data Integration

The recent release of Qlik Replicate November 2023 includes a number of security enhancements related to connectivity:

 

  • Snowflake targets (on Google, AWS, or Azure) now support OAuth2 authentication
  • The Kafka target now supports certificate + username and password authentication
  • Amazon S3 and Amazon Redshift Targets now support IAM Roles Anywhere
  • MySQL-based targets now support SSL

 

In addition, Qlik Replicate now supports two new target endpoints (Microsoft Fabric Synapse Data Warehouse & Confluent Cloud), a new source endpoint (Google Cloud SQL for SQL Server) and an enhanced Google BigQuery target endpoint.

You can find more details about the Qlik Replicate November 2023 release in this blog or the release notes.

 

 

Qlik Analytics Cloud

New Connectors

Amazon Bedrock – This is a platform that hosts a number of generative AI models (or LLMs), including models not just from Amazon but also leading AI startups, so you can choose which LLM is best suited for your use case. Qlik now offers the following connectors within the Amazon Bedrock platform:

  • AI21 Labs
  • Amazon Titan
  • Anthropic
  • Cohere

 

With these real-time analytics connectors, users can interact with apps and refine context, sending relevant subsets of data to generative AI for a variety of use-cases such as sentiment analysis, few shot learning and classification, data synthesis, summarization, and enrichment, and more. And this is only the beginning – customers can build whatever new use cases they want using generative AI in combination with our engine, and fully controlling the relationship with the third-party models.

More details on these integrations can be found here.

 

Integration with Microsoft Teams

We recently released a new app within Microsoft Teams which allows you to explore analytics using natural language. You can ask a question within Teams and Qlik will respond with AI-generated visualizations and insights, using data from across your Qlik apps. And because you’re in Microsoft Teams, you can easily bring others into the conversation to share and collaborate, as well as access Insight Advisor on mobile devices through the Teams app.

You can find out more about this integration in this blog.

 

Qlik Application Automation

We continue to add more connectors and capabilities to our no-code cloud service that streamlines workflows between SaaS applications and Qlik Cloud.

New Connector

Amazon Bedrock - enables your automation to interact with any of the text and image models from Bedrock and send the model's output to any other automation connector or use it as input for another Bedrock model.

Updated Connectors

OpenAI - A new Chat Completion block enables you to run prompts against OpenAI's powerful GPT models.

Qlik Cloud Services - blocks have been added to enable Qlik Application Automation to interact with the Qlik Business Glossary

And finally, be sure to check out the Connector Factory page on qlik.com for a complete list of which data repositories and applications are accessible by any of Qlik’s solutions (including Talend and Stitch). We will soon have connectivity to over 500 different data sources, targets, and applications!
