November 19, 2024: What’s New in Qlik Cloud?

Qlik Cloud expands to India

Qlik now provides a new cloud region in India to support the growing demand for customers to rapidly innovate with data and technology for analytics in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region. This new region based in Mumbai, is the fourth Qlik Cloud region in APAC and the ninth globally. Organizations based in India and the APAC region can now store and deploy data for analytics locally at scale, ensuring optimal operational performance, regulatory compliance across finance, banking, public sector and healthcare, while providing Advanced AI capabilities with the inherent cost savings of the cloud. Storing data in a local cloud allows customers to effectively meet the analytics needs of their users across the region, with faster access and lower latency.

Extended Data Quality computation for QVDs

With the latest update to Qlik Talend Data Integration, users can now compute data quality in pull-up mode for QVDs, in addition to the previously supported dataset types. This extended support enables data product teams to maintain trusted, consistent data across diverse sources and formats, enhancing reliability for various business needs across Qlik Talend Cloud platform.

Key Features with this update, Qlik Talend Data Integration strengthens its integrated data management offering with extended data quality profiling for:

• SQL databases, allowing pull-up computation for any registered datasets.

• File-based sources, including QVDs, CSV, XLS, and XLSX files, enabling teams to profile and ensure data quality across structured data formats.

• Continued support for Snowflake datasets with push-down computations.

Schema evolution improvements

Schema evolution has been supported in Qlik Talend Cloud replication tasks, and with this update we have extended the capability to also support data lake landing tasks and pipeline projects for landing and storage tasks.

Qlik Talend Cloud supports schema evolution to easily detect structural changes, aka schema drift, to multiple relational data sources and automatically apply the changes to your pipeline. You can configure how each type of DDL operation captured is applied to the target.

Notifications of schema changes are also supported to assist ETL engineers adjusting downstream pipelines, as required. Notifications can be enabled when automatic schema evolution is enabled or disabled for any data movement task, including Replication,data lake landing, and landing tasks

Preview new asset panel

Today we are launching a preview mode for new functionality, the switch is visible in the asset panel in edit mode. The first feature for preview is the new design of the tabs for Fields, Master items, Charts, Custom objects, Application navigation and Dynamic views. The Fields tab also allows for selections in edit mode and has got the histogram from simplified authoring. The new asset panel will be turned on for all users in January.
