QlikView takes a pragmatic approach to metadata. With QlikView, metadata management is optional and retrospective and developers can introduce metadata usage over time. We don’t require a huge upfront metadata effort. QlikView handles three types of metadata—descriptive, administrative, and structural—and makes it available through the QlikView Monitor and a dashboard template. QlikView’s metadata model is a centralized, automated collection, organization, and presentation of metadata for monitoring and distributed use within dashboards. The model is a collection of tables exported from QlikView.
This is a unique approach in the BI industry, getting away from the monolithic metadata repositories of the 1990’s and using a streamlined, value-added collective of the most useful metadata for developers, designers, administrators and end users of QlikView. Message:
