Hi All,
I have been trying various analyses using QlikView and R, the basis of integration being the following discussion -
QlikView and R Integration for Predictive Analytics Example
My understanding is -
1. File loaded into QlikView from csv
2. Selected fields exported to a csv
3. R reads from the csv files
4. R does the analysis
5. R writes into csv files
6. QlikView reloads (or partially reloads) from the csv file.
If analysis is my sole objective, then it removes the necessity for QV altogether, since I could read/write from csv and even the graph displayed are from R plots.
Is there another way of integrating QlikView and R, without using external files?
If not, what is the advantage of using QlikView with R?
Thanks in advance!
There are some workaround regarding qlikview/r and also single dashboards for r like http://www.r-bloggers.com/creating-a-business-dashboard-in-r/
But thats like focing windows gimp doing stuff photoshop normally would do, R is a tool for davanced statistic analysis and dynamic graphics, qlikview main core is a fast paced creating of various dashbords. Its front end is muc stronger than R and the visual elements are more enhanced. Alsohuge the integration of huge databases from servers is easier in QlikView. A good way to go is to use R as data interpreter and Qlikview as graphical device, which displays your findings.
