In the introduction, I wrote “…it's still interesting to see how each of the key players have (slightly) moved”. Well, I can’t say that this year. The 4 BIG traditional BI vendors have dropped out of the leaders quadrant, including IBM, Oracle, SAP and SAS. Bye bye. 3 vendors dominate the leaders quadrant now: Qlik, Tableau and Microsoft. But there’s one BIG thing the report doesn’t talk about too much, and maybe even the most important one… [Read More](https://blog.agilos.com/business/gartner-2016-magic-quadrant) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.agilos.com/business/gartner-2016-magic-quadrant#comments-listing) Topics: [Expertise](https://blog.agilos.com/business/topic/expertise), [BI Strategy](https://blog.agilos.com/business/topic/bi-strategy) ## [From Data Warehouse to Data Jailhouse to Data Lake](https://blog.agilos.com/business/from-data-warehouse-to-data-jailhouse-to-data-lake) Posted by [Gilles Hocepied](https://blog.agilos.com/business/author/gilles-hocepied) on 19-Jan-2016 12:45:33 - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.agilos.com/hubfs/lake_c.png)](https://blog.agilos.com/business/from-data-warehouse-to-data-jailhouse-to-data-lake) Today when you need to prepare company information for decision making, you may well end up with a Data Warehouse project.

The customer has many trucks on the road. Although the planning of these tracks is nicely optimized, a lot of time (and money) is lost in traffic jams. The customer got really frustrated that despite his road planning system, his business suffers from a severe time loss. Not only do some of the shippings arrive too late, but some of the itineraries could have been better planned if he were capable of taking those traffic jams into account...

About one month ago, we were brainstorming with our consultants on how to share our Qlik Sense enthusiasm and expertise with the rest of the world, and we finally came up with the idea of organizing a Qlik Sense Masterclass. A half-day hands-on workshop packed with hints and tips on how to develop the world’s best analytic application. Not for the sake of the application, but to boost the value add you can get from analyzing your internal (eventually combined with external) data, so you can make better decisions.

Many developers understood this, and are building various extensions. Some of those extensions are good, some are less useful… To help you out, we started at Agilos a project to select the best extensions for various things, and share them with you. We tested them, but also looked into shortcomings. And it’s that experience that we want to share with you. We started today with some, but we’ll add new extensions on a regular basis, so don’t forget to come back here and make your Qlik Sense platform even more powerful!
