What is it?

The Qlik Sense Agent is a solution that helps you to enforce Governance for your entire Qlik landscape and to enable Governed Self Service.


Which challenges does it address?

BICC/IT

  • If personal apps are forwarded to the BICC to productionize them, it is hard to BICC to apply the corporate governance and best practices
  • BICC is often contacted be Business Users to guide them to existing apps
  • Today the BICC doesn‘t have any chance to provision data/data models to the Business Users for Self Service scenarios
  • Everytime a user is connecting directly to a spefic data source, Corporate Security definition is lost Local copys of corporate data create huge compliance issue

Business Users

  • Qlik Business Users don‘t have an overview over the content available within their entire Qlik enviroment and the given functionality
  • As a workaround some Business Users build their own apps. This sometimes leads to a shadow IT scenario
  • This is very time consuming and sometimes frustrating: Business Users typically don‘t want to reinvent the wheel (e.g. Salesforce datamodel)

Proposed solution

  • Provide a very simple and user appealing webbased portal which guides the business user through their use cases
  • Possibility to integrate other value added services like GMS, QMC Utilities, Qlik Data Concierge, askQ, Color Styler or other mashups
  • Connect different types of solutions within 1 frontend: QlikView, Qlik Sense, Qlik NPrinting, different types of stages, non Qlik solutions

Supported Use Cases

BICC/IT

  • Reuse existing Security Definitions while working in Self Service mode
  • Reuse Governed Content from the Global Library
  • Less effort for provisioning of governed datamodels
  • Easy to productionize Self Service Apps

Business Users

  • Identify existing content from the entire Qlik landscape through a metadata driven search
  • Present existing content using Business Cards
  • Self Service Process to enhance Governed Apps with personal data
  • View Apps (QlikView or Qlik Sense)
  • Request access for Apps
  • Self Service Apps are connected to governed content a could benefit from automatic data refreshes
