Qlik Cloud Data Integration pipeline scheduling changes

This release enhances pipeline run-time behavior to support more advanced task scheduling options to provide more dependency control, execution flexibility, and performance optimization.

Initially, a data pipeline was composed of independently scheduled tasks that ran at regular minute or hourly intervals based on project defaults that the user could override. However, new options provide regular interval scheduling such as minutes, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or particular dates and times. You also have the option to schedule a task based on a specific event, such successfully completing a prior task.

You might encounter a prompt informing you that a project is outdated, asking you to upgrade your data project to take advantage of the new scheduling options. Upgrading is not mandatory, and your running projects will be unaffected if you choose not to upgrade. However, it is strongly recommended that you upgrade to the new scheduling system. The upgrade is manual and involves selecting scheduling options for each task in the pipeline.

New storage provider connector for SFTP

SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is a secure file transfer protocol that runs over the SSH protocol and can help enterprises meet HIPAA, GDPR, and other regulatory rulings for file transfer compliance. Use the SFTP connector to download files from or upload them to secure FTP locations. Like other Qlik Cloud Analytics file-related connectors (SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox), users can also use this SFTP connector to browse and drill into any folder the user can access on the SFTP server.
