Goal of Peliqan

Peliqan is an all-in-one data collaboration platform that provides direct data access to a wide range of data sources including databases, data warehouses and SaaS business applications. Peliqan is truly self-service for business teams, without the need for a data engineer.

Peliqan helps in a wide range of data-centric use cases:

• Ad hoc analysis: asking ad-hoc data questions and finding an answer fast
• Data visualization / BI
• Data preparation & transformation, making data ready for e.g. analysis or machine learning
• Data checks: e.g. find anomalies
• Working with data: e.g. keeping track of things, manual verifications etc.
• Building interactive data apps
• Set up data syncs / writeback

In each of these use cases, Peliqan avoids the need of a data team or data engineers. Peliqan also avoids the need to setup data pipelines or perform complex tasks. Peliqan allows to start working on the data instantly, without waiting on IT or other specialists to take action.

Peliqan comes with features for 3 personas in a business team:

• Business user: work with Peliqan’s spreadsheet interface to explore and work with data
• Power user: write SQL statements on any data source and combine data from any source
• Developer: use low-code Python scripting to build interactive apps, process data and implement writebacks

Direct data access, data virtualization

In Peliqan you add connections to data sources such as databases and SaaS business applications. Peliqan will fetch the data in real-time from the source where possible, each time you access data to view it or work with it. This concept is also known as “data virtualization”. In some cases, e.g. with SaaS sources, Peliqan will make a copy of the data in its built-in data warehouse.
