Transparent with good reliability and good data visibility
The initial setup had a medium level of difficulty. If we go through the documentation, we can learn about what to do. In Palantir, they had a section called Academy, and that Academy was quite useful. If you go through that as a new user, it makes the process easier as you learn what to do. Initially, we didn't have many sources that would help us learn things, so we struggled a bit. In contrast, with Azure and Amazon Cloud, you have many sources from where you would be easily able to learn. You could just Google what you needed with them, as there's so much available documentation online. What was easy was the fact that everything was in one place. With AWS Cloud, there are many applications to support. You can use Glue or Athena, and you have all these other applications. However, with Palantir, everything is easy due to the fact that it is centralized. It's drag and drop and everything is very transparent.

Lightweight tool, ensures that data is replicated across different systems and simplify complex tasks such as defining relationships
Qlik Compose is something that will automate user's overall data modernization. Here data modernization includes data modeling, ETL jobs, etc. But the advantage is users can automate the overall process of data engineering and data modeling through Qlik Compose. I think that's useful when users are able to manage 60% of the workload automated. That will be very useful. That's fantastic. Replicate does not have a great AI capability. AI capabilities are present in Qlik Sense. Qlik Replicate is a very light tool. It is only meant to capture data from the log files, get the data, and transfer it, read that table structure, create the table structure, and transfer the data whenever there is a change. So, it basically integrates with the kernel of the operating system. The way it works is that these replicate tools will integrate with the kernel of the operating system, and they will access the redo log files of the database. The redo log should have access to all the files of the structure of the schema, too. So, using that technique, they redo all the data structures, create a similar structure, and replicate the structure in the target schema, table, and database. After that is done, it will start tracing the instances that are happening. For example, if data is inserted into the table, then an insert is fired on the statement on the table. So, that particular insert is captured. And based on that insert statement, it will pull the SQL query and say, "Okay, there is an insert. I need to get that data." It will get the data from the redo log itself rather than going to a database. Then, it will just pass that transaction into the target system, where it will just insert the data. And this happens instantaneously, within a microsecond. So, if there is an insert, an update, or a delete, everything is transferred immediately. It is picked from the redo log because it comes to the redo log, and then the redo log sends it to Qlik Replicate and Replicate to the target system on which Replicate is installed.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Great features available in one tool."
"I like the data onboarding to Palantir Foundry and ETL creation."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"The data lineage is great."
"The ease of use is my favorite feature. We're able to build different models and projects or combine different projects to build one use case."
"The security is also excellent. It's highly granular, so the admins have a high degree of control, and there are many levels of security. That worked well. You won't have an EDC unless you put everything onto the platform because it is its own isolated thing."
"It's scalable."
"The virtualization tool is useful."
"The most useful functions of Qlik Replicate are the data manipulation to transformations."
"A valuable feature of Qlik Replicate is that you do not need ETL. It's easy to use—you choose two systems and it automatically replicates them. Even if there is no CDC available, if you insert it and update it, and there is nothing to find out, then you can use Qlik Replicate. It's a good product."
"Great with replicating and updating records."
"The CDC and the flexibility to use QVD as a source are the most valuable features of Qlik Replicate."
"The main valuable feature is its real-time change data capture (CDC) capabilities, which process data with minimal latency. There is not much delay. It also performs well with batch-wise data applications."
"It enables us to transform data at the latest stage rather than in ETL loads, so it's more ELT which is one of the advantages. It is also in near real-time, which brings significant advantage for our embedded analytics approach."
"It is only meant to capture data from the log files, get the data, and transfer it, read that table structure, create the table structure, and transfer the data whenever there is a change."
"We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments."
 

Cons

"It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."
"The data lineage was challenging. It's hard to track data from the sources as it moves through stages. Informatica EDC can easily capture and report it because it talks to the metadata. This is generated across those various staging points."
"They do not have a data center in Europe, and we have lots of personally identifiable information in our dataset that needs to be hosted by a third-party data center like Amazon or Microsoft Azure."
"There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers."
"The solution’s data security could be improved."
"It's not possible to replicate the QVC files in data analytics."
"When you remote into it the Qlik Replicate UI a lot of times it just freezes. We set up the EC2, to allow them to go to the server and click on the Replicate icon, it just opens up and just sits there. At that point, we have to go into the EC2 and then reboot the server. This should be fixed, it is frustrating."
"We'd like better connectivity."
"Support for this product is not great. It needs to be improved."
"It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious."
"We would like to see more details in messages about errors with the system."
"The solution's flexibility to work with APIs should also be improved since it is very weak in working with APIs."
"This product could be improved by providing more insight regarding errors. One of our customers that uses Qlik Replicate has had an issue. We tried to debug it, but we could not trace the error message. The infrastructure site should give us more insight about errors. Qlik Replicate is not a business solution, it's an IT solution. The reporting tools and bug site should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution’s pricing is high."
"It's expensive."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Qlik Replicate's pricing a nine out of ten."
"Unlike Azure, where you pay based on consumption, Qlik Replicate seems to charge per endpoint."
"Qlik Replicate is not expensive, compared to GoldenGate."
"Pricing for this solution is very reasonable."
"Qlik Replicate is mainly suited for large companies. However, it is too costly for small businesses. Its pricing is high."
"Overall, Qlik is an expensive solution. You need to pay for all additional features that you would like to use."
