Overview of this book

Business Intelligence technologies are a must-have in every business to make informed decisions and keep up-to speed with the ever-evolving markets. QlikView's disruptive technology makes it a key player and leader in the industry; with its flexibility and powerful analytics environment, building QlikView apps can be mastered by both, business users as well as developers. This book will help you learn QlikView Development from a basic to a practitioner level using a step-by-step approach in a practical environment, and apply proven best practices on each topic. Throughout the book, we will build a QlikView app based on real data about Airline Operations that will help "HighCloud Airlines" make informed business decisions and analysis-guided strategies. HighCloud Airlines executives are evaluating if entering the US market is a good strategy and, if so, which line of business should they focus their investments on; they need QlikView to make the best decision. The application will be evolving chapter by chapter, along with your skills, going from a simple proof of concept to creating a Data Model, adding a custom style, building a Dashboard and handling and manipulating the source data via script. We will meet the "HighCloud Airlines" requirement by using many different data visualization objects and time-saving techniques. The whole application uses real data taken from the Bureau of Transportations statistics of the US and encompasses the operations of Airlines both domestic and international. With three years worth of data, you will help HighCloud Airlines discover where people travel the most, which are the Carriers with the most market share, what is the average load factor per airline, which aircraft is the most used to perform flights, which are the busiest airports, and a whole universe of new insights.

Summary


We have covered the most basic extraction capabilities that QlikView provides. We have also described the different data sources you can access from QlikView and provided a few tips for dealing with input tables.

At the same time, the technical team at HighCloud Airlines has been able to assess that QlikView can load data from disparate sources, and see the different options they will have at their disposal with QlikView regarding data sources. They have also been presented with one of the most important differentiators of the QlikView software; that is, its ability to read and process data stored in disparate sources, and combine them, associate them, link them, and store it all in one location (the QlikView document), to enable a complete insight and analysis for QlikView users.

In the next chapter, we will learn how we can turn our extracted data into a proper data model.
