Hi Guys,
I have recently joined QDF and have extracted Admin & Shared container on my local machine.
I have some simple questions regarding best practices
- Do I have to extract the Admin and shared container on production too ?
- Am I suppose to create a new container for each application?
- Once I finish developing an application on my local machine, should I just copy the application (QVW) and paste it on Production? or Do I have to copy the entire container?
- If I have to copy the entire container to Production then how to best manage folder structure on on QMC?
- How to manage connection string for different environments? (Dev, Test, UAT, Production)
About the current Architecture :
- We use QlikView 12 Personal edition and QV12 SMB server
- NO QlikView Publisher
- NO Test or UAT environment
- Developer Develops Application by connecting to the Dev Environment of SQL Database ,
- Then a tester tests the application by updating the DB connection string to the Test SQL Database
- And Once tested then only we change the Database connection string to Production
- We have a QVD generator and a QVD updater (Incremental load from SQL every 30 Minutes)
- And all the other applications use those same QVD files from one single folder
How do we best manage the process ?
Your ideas and feedback will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
