GraalVM vs. Qlik Analytics Platform

If you want to have a cool VM, don't spend too much memory and mainly being multilanguage go ahead. Be aware there are some points that can be improved like a couple of languages are not accepted so far. Like used to, it's easy to use and you can find a lot of information regarding the tool so if you need to do something fast, it's a good choice.

If you want to setup analytics dashboards for reporting or simple data analysis then Qlik is your tool of choice.

Complex data structures are handled well, but you’ll need to keep de amount of data on the low side. Integration with other software is possible and easy.

• Best performance of applications
• High efficiency of applications
• Reduced hardware requirements
• Lesser consumption of resources
• Universal support to multiple programming languages
• Reduced size of applications
• Creation of virtual images for testing on Android and iOS mobile operating systems
• Creation of native images
• Excellent support
• Documentations are detailed enough to learn and use easily
• Easy to use

• It's flexible in allowing the development of fully-fledged analysis tools and dashboards, but also smaller "widgets" to embed in our websites to bring stories to life, and enables us to develop things once and then re-use them in different contexts.
• The development platform and management console are both easy to use, and, with proper data development by our expert developers, can be used by relatively junior colleagues to produce great-looking and very useful products.
• The way the platform handles a mix of data sources from different APIs and internal data stores is good.
• We like the visualizations and from a corporate perspective find it easy to develop one-size-fits-all visualizations that present a wide range of data items well in a responsive way.

• It should be possible to use GraalVM EE to distribute native images of JavaFX applications for mobile platforms, especially for Apple platforms.
• Native Images are a game changer. However, compiling complex applications can be a pain. Better support for an improved transition process are a must.

• The learning curve could be less steap
• Very big sets of data are harder to process with the alike software
• There could be a better role based setup posibilities

The support we received when porting legacy applications from the GraalVM team and community was commendable. We were able to get assistance in introducing alternatives for the libraries we were using where appropriate. GraalVM support was also able to help us with some configuration options we were stuck with for configuring deployment environments on AWS compute.

Qlik is great for companies with lots of business domains and departments because it scales well, especially if data that is reported is saved in SQL and similar structures. Its ease of use and good UI enables business units to create and manage their own reports. That removes a great burden of creating and managing/modifying these pages from the IT team. Overall, it's a win-win for both IT and business units.

The reason why we had to select GraalVM one is [a] cutting-edge compiling technique, GraalVM is well operated in the Environment of Open JDK, which speeds up the execution of Java programs. GraalVM makes creating packages and native apps simpler, and this improves distribution. It also brings native image support [that] makes compilation and distribution easy and effective.

They are all good tools, each having their own pros and cons. Qlik Analytics Platform was easy to set up, more than affordable, and has a good user base. Though not as large as some of the other tools, it is growing every day and for the price, it is very hard to beat. I would recommend it. Microsoft Power BI is a little more intuitive to some users, many of them engineers, because of its similarities to Excel. I do like that it follows a similar structure to Excel but I think that it also has the same old-school GUI, which could be improved on. I prefer the way Qlik Analytics Platform's visualizations look because they appear more modern and smooth rather than rigid.

• Financial: Increased Java container count on the same hardware.
• Performance: Decreased cold start time for container startup.
• Training: Adopting GraalVM has a learning curve. This requires investment in time and resources. The benefits come through re-evaluating our current deployments for optimization.

• Simplification and adaptability of analyzes according to the type of user
• Integration with data sources and direct via rest API, allows for simplification in modeling
• Need for a lot of specific knowledge of the instrument and the range of products in order to best meet the needs
