The new capacity model of Qlik counts the data for analysis in GB as consumption. This consists of two elements in the management console:
1. App reload
2. Datafile
Now we encounter some issues with our 'regular' way of working, where the same app is counted twice in capacity consumption. Once with the shared space app and once with the managed space app. Our view of a shared space was that the collaborative editing part was one of its strong points. Therefore, we had the 'source' app in a shared space and the 'published' app in a managed space. With the capacity consumption now counting twice, we are somewhat forced to move the app to a personal space, reload the app with necessary changes, and then move the app back to the shared space. Reloads in a personal space are not counted in capacity consumption. Furthermore, an app that has been reloaded 2 months ago is still counted as capacity consumption in current month!! In my perspective, a monthly check on consumption should only check that particular month. This implies that even if the shared space app has not been reloaded for months, it still counts twice in capacity consumption. The only fix I found was deleting and re-uploading the app. I cannot imagine that this is the desired way of working! What are your views and best practices on working with this new capacity model?
