Building on the alliance announced earlier last year between
Datawatch and QlikTech, Datawatch has developed a software
extension that allows QlikTech customers the ability to incorporate
unstructured and semi-structured data into QlikView
applications. With the launch of the Datawatch Unstructured
Data Connector for QlikView, QlikView customers will be able to
model and include sources like PDF, XBRL, HTML, text files, machine
data, and many other non-relational sources of data into their data
discovery dashboards and applications. Designed with the same
user orientation as QlikView, this technology empowers business
professionals to select the data they would like to include from
these sources and easily incorporate that data into QlikView
through a QVX file that includes both the data and metadata
components. Also, like QlikView, these applications can
easily be migrated by IT professionals into production ready, large
scale deployments, by using the complete Datawatch Information
Optimization Platform.
"We are excited about providing our customers the freedom and
flexibility to use any source of data they need to analyze and
understand their business," said Peter
McQuade, Vice President of Alliances and Partner Sales at
QlikTech. "By offering the Datawatch solution to our customers via
QlikMarket, we are making it as simple as possible for them to get
a leading solution for incorporating unstructured and
semi-structured data into QlikView."
"Datawatch and QlikView are a natural technology pairing,"
commented Ben Plummer, CMO and SVP
of Strategic Alliances of Datawatch. He continued by saying,
"Over the last year we have seen a growing demand in our customer
base to incorporate more data variety into applications like
QlikView, and with the release of our QlikView connector we are
able to make this process faster and easier for QlikView
users."
The Datawatch Unstructured Data Connector for QlikView is
available immediately via QlikMarket. Datawatch will market
and sell the solution through direct sales and global channel
partners. Both companies will be supporting the alliance with
joint marketing, sales, and services programs. To learn more about
