商品描述

This book is smartly built around a practical case study – HighCloud Airlines – to help you gain an in-depth understanding of how to build applications for Business Intelligence using QlikView. A superb hands-on guide.

Overview

  • Learn to build applications for Business Intelligence while following a practical case -- HighCloud Airlines. Each chapter develops parts of the application and it evolves throughout the book along with your own QlikView skills.
  • The code bundle for each chapter can be accessed on your local machine without having to purchase a QlikView license.
  • The hands-on approach allows you to build a QlikView application that integrates real data from several different sources and presents it in dashboards, analyses and reports.

In Detail

Business Intelligence technologies are a must-have in every business to make informed decisions and keep up-to speed with the ever-evolving markets. QlikView’s disruptive technology makes it a key player and leader in the industry; with its flexibility and powerful analytics environment, building QlikView apps can be mastered by both, business users as well as developers.

This book will help you learn QlikView Development from a basic to a practitioner level using a step-by-step approach in a practical environment, and apply proven best practices on each topic.

Throughout the book, we will build a QlikView app based on real data about Airline Operations that will help "HighCloud Airlines" make informed business decisions and analysis-guided strategies. HighCloud Airlines executives are evaluating if entering the US market is a good strategy and, if so, which line of business should they focus their investments on; they need QlikView to make the best decision.

The application will be evolving chapter by chapter, along with your skills, going from a simple proof of concept to creating a Data Model, adding a custom style, building a Dashboard and handling and manipulating the source data via script. We will meet the "HighCloud Airlines" requirement by using many different data visualization objects and time-saving techniques.

The whole application uses real data taken from the Bureau of Transportations statistics of the US and encompasses the operations of Airlines both domestic and international. With three years worth of data, you will help HighCloud Airlines discover where people travel the most, which are the Carriers with the most market share, what is the average load factor per airline, which aircraft is the most used to perform flights, which are the busiest airports, and a whole universe of new insights.

What you will learn from this book

  • Learn the techniques and best practices to transform data in QlikView via script
  • Loading data from disparate sources to build an associative Data Model
  • Building robust data models and overcoming common modeling challenges
  • Designing data visualization objects to present performance measures with charts and tables

  • Constructing a data architecture that supports scalable QlikView deployments
  • Learn time-saving techniques for making your QlikView development more efficient

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書以一個實際案例研究 - HighCloud Airlines - 為基礎,巧妙地幫助您深入了解如何使用 QlikView 建立商業智能應用程式。這是一本非常實用的指南。

概述:
- 在跟隨一個實際案例 - HighCloud Airlines - 的同時,學習建立商業智能應用程式。每個章節都會開發應用程式的一部分,並且隨著您的 QlikView 技能的提升而進化。
- 每個章節的程式碼包可以在本地機器上訪問,無需購買 QlikView 授權。
- 透過實踐的方式,您可以建立一個 QlikView 應用程式,將來自多個不同來源的真實數據集成並呈現在儀表板、分析和報告中。

詳細內容:
- 商業智能技術是每個企業必備的,以做出明智的決策並跟上不斷變化的市場。QlikView 的破壞性技術使其成為行業的關鍵和領導者;憑藉其靈活性和強大的分析環境,無論是業務用戶還是開發人員都可以掌握建立 QlikView 應用程式的技能。

這本書將幫助您在實際環境中從基礎到實踐者級別學習 QlikView 開發,並在每個主題上應用成熟的最佳實踐。

在整本書中,我們將基於有關航空公司運營的真實數據建立一個 QlikView 應用程式,以幫助 "HighCloud Airlines" 做出明智的業務決策和分析導向的策略。HighCloud Airlines 的高管們正在評估進入美國市場是否是一個好策略,如果是,他們應該將投資重點放在哪個業務線上;他們需要 QlikView 來做出最佳決策。

應用程式將在每個章節中進化,隨著您的技能提升,從一個簡單的概念證明到創建數據模型,添加自定義樣式,構建儀表板,以及通過腳本處理和操作源數據。我們將使用許多不同的數據可視化對象和節省時間的技巧來滿足 "HighCloud Airlines" 的需求。

整個應用程式使用的是從美國運輸統計局獲取的真實數據,涵蓋國內和國際航空公司的運營情況。有三年的數據,您將幫助 HighCloud Airlines 發現人們最常旅行的地方,市場份額最高的航空公司,每個航空公司的平均負載因子,最常用於執行航班的飛機,最繁忙的機場,以及一個全新的洞察力宇宙。

從本書中您將學到:
- 通過腳本在 QlikView 中轉換數據的技巧和最佳實踐
- 從不同來源加載數據以建立關聯數據模型
- 構建強大的數據模型並克服常見的建模挑戰
- 設計數據可視化對象以呈現圖表和表格中的性能指標
