How do the products in the Qlik product portfolio fit together?


We have seen that the Qlik product portfolio has expanded significantly in the past few years. At the time of QlikView 11 for Developers, there was only QlikView. Nowadays there is a complete range of products and add-ons.

The following diagram gives a high-level overview of how all the products fit together. The base is QlikView and the QAP, both of these use the same QIX Engine. The QAP underpins Qlik Sense Enterprise, which adds a frontend client and collaboration features. NPrinting can be used for static reporting on either QlikView or Qlik Sense. The Qlik Web Connectors, Rest Connector, and DataMarket let both QlikView and Qlik Sense ingest external, web-based data. Geographical analysis in both QlikView and Qlik Sense can be done with the Qlik GeoAnalytics add-on.
