Summary

We have covered the most basic extraction capabilities that QlikView provides. We have also described the different data sources you can access from QlikView and provided a few tips for dealing with input tables.

At the same time, the technical team at HighCloud Airlines has been able to assess that QlikView can load data from disparate sources, and see the different options they will have at their disposal with QlikView regarding data sources. They have also been presented with one of the most important differentiators of the QlikView software; that is, its ability to read and process data stored in disparate sources, and combine them, associate them, link them, and store it all in one location (the QlikView document), to enable a complete insight and analysis for QlikView users.

In the next chapter, we will learn how we can turn our extracted data into a proper data model.
