Qlik Adds Native Support for Snowflake Managed Iceberg Tables, Expands Open Lakehouse Options for Snowflake Customers
New capabilities enable real-time data streaming, Iceberg optimization, and AI-ready architectures for faster, more cost-effective insights
These advancements are designed to help Snowflake customers reduce latency, optimize storage and compute efficiency, and accelerate the development of AI-powered applications, including retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) via Snowflake Cortex AI.
Newly announced capabilities include:
- Native Streaming to Snowflake-managed Iceberg Tables: Qlik Talend Cloud® now supports continuous change data capture (CDC) from enterprise systems directly into Snowflake-managed Iceberg tables, enabling low-latency ingestion supporting strict business SLAs for analytics and AI use cases.
- Qlik Open Lakehouse Optimization & Mirroring: Qlik Open Lakehouse combines low-latency ingestion into Apache Iceberg tables with an automated optimizer that manages compactions, partitioning, and pruning in S3—delivering faster queries and a reduced storage footprint without manual tuning. It also mirrors Iceberg data back into Snowflake for downstream transformations without duplicating data.
- One-Click Data Products with In-Snowflake Quality Execution: Qlik data products can be generated directly within customers’ Snowflake ecosystems, leveraging the Qlik Talend Trust Score™ to push down data quality computation in Snowflake—enabling teams to produce governed, high-quality outputs that elevate the value of curated assets.
