In these uncertain times of the COVID-19 crisis, one thing is certain – data is key to decision making, now more than ever. And, the need for speed in getting access to data as it changes has only accelerated. It’s no wonder, then, that organisations are looking to technologies that help solve the problem of streaming data continuously, so they can run their businesses in real-time.
Research on COVID-19 is being produced at an accelerating rate, and machine intelligence could be crucial in helping the medical community find key information and insights. When I came across the COVID-19 Open Research Dataset (CORD-19), it contained about 57,000 scholarly articles. Just one month later, it has over 158,000 articles. If the clues to fighting COVID-19 lie in this vast repository of knowledge, how can Qlik help?
It’s time to get back to my favorite topic in visualization – how to best use color. I’ve written about it before in two of my previous posts, which you can read by clicking here and here. But, for this post, I’m going to go into a bit more detail on some tips and tricks that you can use.
If “necessity is the mother of invention,” COVID-19 forced many businesses around the world to rethink their digital transformation, data and analytics strategies. Out of every crisis, there will be opportunities. Although the current pandemic has certainly acted as a black swan event in some cases impeding progress, it has, nonetheless, accelerated several of the trends already pushing toward a digital future.
Qlik is excited to announce the June 2020 product release, furthering our leadership in augmented intelligence, best-in-class visualization and platform extensibility.
The ingredients of competitive advantage and differentiation tend to evolve over time. Throughout history they have included access to capital, raw materials, labor; they have been based on economies of scale and economies of scope. At IDC, it is our contention that the new basis for differentiation will be economies of intelligence.
We all know visualization alone is not enough in the world of modern BI. And, when Qlik Sense was introduced, we focused on building a world-class platform, driven by our associative engine, open APIs and modern architecture. Our vision was to drive all the major analytics use cases, and support a lightning fast pace of innovation for the next decade and beyond.
An exciting day today as Qlik launches the first-ever “History of the Fortune 500” as the official analytics partner of the Fortune 500. This unique data analytics site offers a window into the companies that have shaped America and the history that shaped them.
With COVID-19 now part of our daily lives, normal business operations and practices have been abandoned or curtailed and reinvented to sustain our businesses. Indeed, each department, division and team has had its own dynamics changed in this time of lockdown, and coping with process and workplace setting changes can present unique challenges.
We are now living in a truly hyper-connected environment where vast amounts of data are being transferred, gathered, and consumed daily. There are 3.9 billion internet users globally – a number that is still growing. Just think about the last time you were waiting for a Zoom conference call to start.
