Summary

We covered the most basic extraction capabilities that QlikView provides. We 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 are now 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 also have one of the most important differentiators of QlikView software; that is, its ability to read and process data stored in disparate sources, combine them, associate them, link them, and store them 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.
