Monitoring current performance and availability of Qlik Sense site is not out-of-the-box feature, but can be easily achieved with native REST connector and requesting engine\healthcheck JSON API.

Our customer recently asked us to support 98% availability of their Qlik Sense production site (i.e. only 7.31 downtime days per year), so we developed a Qlik Sense app, that reads and stores a snapshot of engine/health check JSON data and shows it in a few visuals. It reloads in a few seconds and thus can serve as a Qlik site monitoring tool.

In case you are wondering why we don’t use a specialized monitoring tool, the answers are:

No extra costs for the customer
They already have the best Data Integration and Data Analytics tool, which is completely transparent, so it does not make sense to invest their time and energy into some “black-box”
They decide on further development, what they need to add, what they need to see = they are in control

If you have a similar challenge then check a more detailed description HERE and request it from our Customer Operations Group.

Enjoy 🙂
