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.

More Qlik Replicate pros

Cons

"Precisely works with a tool called Analyze, which has a steep learning curve due to its use of Jython, a combination of Java and Python. This could be improved to make the tool more user-friendly."

"The product should improve its licensing limitation."

"Support for this product is not great. It needs to be improved."

"The disadvantage is people are not going for this license because it is not marketed properly."

"I am not very comfortable with Qlik support as it often goes in loops. Even priority tickets, which should be resolved in minutes, can take days."

"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 would like to see more details in messages about errors with the system."

"Some features on the graphical user interface are clunky."

"There is complexity involved in the licensing part of this system."
