BI and data management indie powerhouse Qlik continues to build out its solution set, moving further into the realm of AI by adding new machine learning capabilities. Qlik said it has acquired Salt Lake City, Utah-based Big Squid, a provider of a standalone automated machine learning (AutoML) platform specifically designed to work with analytics and business intelligence (BI) platforms.

With technology acquired from Attunity (now Qlik Data Integration), users can bring data in using Change Data Capture (CDC), then use technology acquired from Podium Data (now Qlik Catalog) to document the lineage of that data and perform interactive analytics in Qlik Sense.

It simplifies the utilization of AI in business analytics by helping users to generate machine learning models without coding.

Though AI and BI have largely evolved separately, with new integrations like that of Qlik and Big Squid, their powers can be combined.
