How to Select in an App
Qlik offers an entirely different technology for exploring your data: The Qlik Associative Engine.
Designed specifically for interactive, free-form exploration and analysis, the Associative Engine fully combines large numbers of data sources and indexes them to understand the associations – without leaving any data behind. It offers powerful on-the-fly calculation and aggregation that instantly updates analytics and highlights relationships in the data, exposing both associated and unrelated values after each click. This means that any user – at any skill level – can search and explore their data in any direction, following their curiosity wherever it leads. It’s like having peripheral vision, removing blind spots and uncovering hidden insights that aren’t available in query-based tools.
