Another pivotal service in QlikView<\/a><\/strong> is the QlikView Web Server (QVWS). QlikView Web Server plays a central role in the workflow of QlikView. In this QVWS tutorial, we will venture further into understanding the web server and the processes linked to it. We will learn how to configure Web Server in QlikView, about load balancing, access point etc. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So, let\u2019s start QlikView Web Server Tutorial.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

QlikView Web Server (QVWS) – Service, Load Balancing, Access Point<\/p><\/div>\n

What is QlikView Web Server?<\/h3>\n

The QlikView Web Server (<\/em>QVWS) and QlikView Server<\/em> (QVS) works in close coordination. QlikView Web Server provides support to the front-end. Web servers come with the server installation package, although the server also provides individual web server requirements if\/when needed. The most important role of QlikView Web Server in the QlikView architecture<\/strong><\/a> is to act as a middleman between the QlikView Server and the client. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The data traffic coming from QlikView Server is directed to the QlikView Web Server component (QVWS or Microsoft IIS) at some point. As we already know from the previous tutorials that a Windows client connects directly to the QVS but if the client is an AJAX or a mobile client, then they connect to the QVS through QVWS (Web Server). <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

One much-preferred web server is Microsoft Internet Information Service (Microsoft IIS). It provides functionalities like authentication schemes, better flexibility, and connectivity and improved web services for applications other than the server. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A unique functionality call as QlikView Setting Service for handling management calls in Microsoft IIS. However, the default web server is QlikView Web Server and not Microsoft IIS when you install the software. It is your choice whether or not you want to keep using QVWS as the web server or switch to Microsoft IIS. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let us take a quick look at some of the technical details of QVWS,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
